'The US Badly Needs a Bouncer', xenophobic cartoon by J Heppler, displayed in the Ellis Island Immigration Museum, in the main building on Ellis Island, the immigration processing centre for the United States from 1892 to 1954, at the mouth of the Hudson river in New York City, NY, USA. Fears of internal subversion by foreign ideologies such as anarchism, socialism, and communism reached a height during World War I and the postwar period. Fenianism, also mentioned in the cartoon, supported the overthrow of British rule in Ireland. Ellis Island and its Immigration Museum are part of the Statue of Liberty National Monument and are managed by the National Park Authority. Picture by Manuel Cohen
