Summary
Cartoon shows Soviet leaders Vyshinski, Molotov, Stalin, and Zarubin watching with approval as copies of the book, "One World," burn in a bonfire. "One World" was the title of Republican statesman Wendell Willkie's book calling for postwar cooperation among nations. The caption refers to the popular Book of the Month Club. Suggests that Soviet actions in the early years of the Cold War are destroying hopes for postwar peace.
