The lion howls

A lion (England) jumps in pain as a steel trap (England's seat in the League) clamps down on his tail. Tied to the trap are two tags reading, "League of Nations entanglements" and "small nations combine against the British Empire." In the background, the American Eagle comments, "I told you there was a catch to it, Leo."
