Title	Drag strip conference; July 7, [1968]
Description	From the AAEC Editorial Cartoon Collection. Cartoon by Eldon Pletcher. Lyndon Johnson and Leonid Brezhnev are in drag strip cars shaped like nuclear missiles. Each car has the atomic symbol near the nose of the rocket shape. The cars are side by side as if ready to begin a drag race. The race course is a huge dollar bill sign, and the straightaways are labeled, "Dollars...Rubles." A sign on the race course has the words, "An agreement to talk about talks to curb offensive-defensive nuclear missiles systems." The cartoon caption reads, "Drag strip conference."
