1933 stock swindler cartoon: Credit Line: Library of Congress, Prints & Photographs Division, [reproduction number, e.g., LC-USZ62-90145] Cartoon shows a well-dressed fat man (labeled "Stock-Selling Big Business") holding his hands wide in a posture of disbelief as he says, "The government should keep its hands off me." Smoke, labeled "Insull" and "Kreuger," swirls about his legs. In 1932, public confidence in the probity of businessmen had suffered a severe blow with the revelation of the financial swindles of Ivar Kreuger, the Swedish "match king" and Samuel Insull, the public utility magnate. At the same time, a Senate investigation uncovered evidence that investment bankers were manipulating sales of stock for their own benefit at the expense of their customers. As Roosevelt prepared to take office in 1933, many people had begun to call for government regulation of the financial system.
