Best Cartoon-to Harold Morton Talburt of Scripps-Howard's Washington Daily News, $500 for his cartoon entitled "The Light of Asia." It showed a brawny fist, labeled Japan, clutching a crumpled sheaf of papers which blazed like a torch. It was marked: "Nine Power Treaty- Kellogg Pact." Cartoonist Talburt, one-time Toledo soda-jerker...
