SUMMARY:Cartoon shows the back and arm of a mariner (labeled "L.B.J.") firmly holding the wheel (labeled "Foreign Policy"), steering his ship past icebergs labeled "Kremlin Upset," "New Labor Rule in Britain," and "Resignation of Premier Ikeda of Japan." In October 1964, new leaders took power in the governments of two of the United States'' major allies and its main rival. In the Soviet Union, Nikita Khrushchev was ousted and replaced by Leonid Brezhnev; in Japan, Prime Minister Hayato Ikeda resigned because of ill health; and in Great Britain, the Conservative government was defeated by the Labour Party and Harold Wilson became the new Prime Minister. The cartoonist shows support for President Johnson in handling this diplomatic upheaval
