Warren G. Harding letter to Clifford K. Berryman, January 14, 1920
No full textIn this letter dated January 14, 1920, Senator Warren G. Harding writes to Clifford K. Berryman, a political cartoonist at The Evening Star, thanking him for his holiday greetings and New Year's wishes. Berryman sent Harding a cartoon showing his famous teddy bear holding a document called "Warren G. Harding's statement of where he stands on all American Questions of the day" with the caption "That is what I call real American stuff!" In his letter, Harding acknowledges his common criticism that it's hard to determine where he stands on political issues because he never publicly states his stance on controversial topics. Clifford Kennedy Berryman was the most famous political cartoonist in Washington D.C. in the early 20th century. He first worked for the Washington Post, and joined the staff at The Evening Star in 1907, where he worked until his death in 1949.
