Description	From the AAEC Editorial Cartoon Collection. Cartoon by John Riedell. Henry Cabot Lodge tries to dislodge a huge boulder from a roadway on a mountain pass. A directional sign on the road labeled "Peace ? kilometers" points the way, but the boulder, with a Vietnamese or Chinese face, is blocking the path.
