At the top left, are two people wrapped up in newspapers (the Press and the Lyttelton Times) shaking hands above a sea marked 'politics' and titled 'hands across the sea'.

Below that is an angry man holding a Post Office savings box, with accompanying text 'Once money has been placed in the new Post Office money boxes it cannot be removed except by the P. O. officials. The man had been hoping to retrieve money to catch a tram. Below that is a drawing titled 'The other cheek' and featuring Prime Minister William Massey, holding his lower back and facing Auckland M. P. George Fowlds. Surrounding text explains that Massey has offered to pay Fowlds' expenses if he would tour New Zealand repeating his Pukekohe speech.
