Anything to distract his attention

In this cartoon by Carey Orr, a man, "European statesman--to blame for Europe's troubles," has crawled up a tree and is holding a stick with a flag, "America is to blame for everything," in front of a bull, "Europe." On the ground is a slingshot, "blundering statesmanship." Uncle Sam scratches his head in the distance.
