Abstract
The June 3, 1967 issue of the New Republic reprinted a Chicago Sun Times Bill Mauldin cartoon showing President Lyndon Johnson drinking coffee at a restaurant. A sign above his head reads “WATCH YOUR HAT … AND COAT.” Johnson, holding two pistols, dutifully watches the hat called “S.E. ASIA” totally unaware that behind his back Leonid Brezhnev is busy stealing a coat entitled “MIDDLE EAST.”
