Title	Stop the shelling? I don't know that tune; September 8, [1968]
Description	From the AAEC Editorial Cartoon Collection. Cartoon by Eldon Pletcher. A man labeled, "Viet Cong" plays a piano with three pipes on top that resemble cannon barrels. The song on the piano is called, "Stop the bombing." The cannons are emitting smoke which has formed cloudy masses at the top of the cartoon. The clouds are labeled, "Indiscriminate rocket and mortar attacks on S. Vietnam's cities...Slaughter of innocent men, women and children." The man at the piano calls over his shoulder, "Stop the shelling? I don't know that tune."
