"Tojo like careless worker! Be careful!"
 |
On March 2, 1942, Donald M. Nelson, director of the War Production Board formed by by executive order of Franklin D. Roosevelt called for companies to voluntarily establish joint labor-management committees to help increase productivity and boost morale. These committees utilized the art departments of their own companies to create posters like this Rosie the Riveter, We Can Do It! Poster" and worker safety poster featured on this page titled : "Tojo like careless worker! Be Careful!" from the Westinghouse Company War Production Co-ordinating Committee under the Office for Emergency Management, War Production Board . This industrial poster by illustrator J. Howard Miller effectively and artistically demonizes the infamous general from the Imperial Japanese Army, General Hideki Tojo as he fiendishly takes pleasure in an American industrial employee being transported from the factory in an ambulance because of an accident. One would never guess this same artist who created this repulsive General Tojo characterization, artist/illustrator painter J. Howard Miller is one and the same now for famous for creating a truly gorgeous poster image that would become a popular modern day feminist icon "Rosie the Riveter" from another poster also commissioned by the Westinghouse War Production in Co-ordinating Committee under the Office for Emergency Management, War Production Board."We Can Do It!".
