The slanting road

An automobile (Farm Industry) travels down a narrow steep incline towards the Capitol (1928 elections). On one side of the road a sign reads "low prices for products the farmer sells," and on the other side a sign reads "high prices for products the farmer buys." A man in a straw hat (Farm vote) drives the car, while two men (side stepping politician, Eastern politicians) try to hold on to the car in the back seat.
