Answer:
Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938
Explanation:
The Supreme Court had been one of the major obstacles to wage-hour and child-labor laws. Among notable cases is the 1918 case of Hammer v. Dagenhart in which the Court by one vote held unconstitutional a Federal child-labor law. Similarly in Adkins v. Children's Hospital in 1923, the Court by a narrow margin voided the District of Columbia law that set minimum wages for women. During the 1930's, the Court's action on social legislation was even more devastating.3
New Deal promise. In 1933, under the "New Deal" program, Roosevelt's advisers developed a National Industrial Recovery Act (NRA).4 The act suspended antitrust laws so that industries could enforce fair-trade codes resulting in less competition and higher wages. On signing the bill, the President stated: "History will probably record the National Industrial Recovery Act as the most important and far-reaching legislation ever enacted by the American Congress." The law was popular, and one family in Darby, Penn., christened a newborn daughter Nira to honor it.
As an early step of the NRA, Roosevelt promulgated a President's Reemployment Agreement "to raise wages, create employment, and thus restore business." Employers signed more than 2.3 million agreements, covering 16.3 million employees. Signers agreed to a workweek between 35 and 40 hours and a minimum wage of $12 to $15 a week and undertook, with some exceptions, not to employ youths under 16 years of age. Employers who signed the agreement displayed a "badge of honor," a blue eagle over the motto "We do our part." Patriotic Americans were expected to buy only from "Blue Eagle" business concerns.
In the meantime, various industries developed more complete codes. The Cotton Textile Code was the first of these and one of the most important. It provided for a 40-hour workweek, set a minimum weekly wage of $13 in the North and $12 in the South, and abolished child labor. The President said this code made him "happier than any other one thing...since I have come to Washington, for the code abolished child labor in the textile industry." He added: "After years of fruitless effort and discussion, this ancient atrocity went out in a day."

The man in the cartoon is looking at what seems to be a news report about the drought in Ethiopia. The man is sitting down to watch the television. The man doesn’t care for the news report as can be seen by his reaction “just another darn repeat”. I believe the cartoonist thinks that the people in the west don’t care about what’s going on in Ethiopia.
After the end of World War II it was the time of decline of European colonies which lead to the rise of new superpowers and emergence of several new countries on the map.

After WWII Europe was divided into USA captured Europe and USSR capture Europe. The end of the war increased the rate of decolonization. Independence being granted from great powers like India from United Kingdom, Indonesia from Netherland. The Philippines from The United States and several Arab nations get free from the superpowers.
This happened because the superpowers were badly affected by the war and they were not able to rule other nations anymore so they have to step back. Thus how the World War II led to the origin of independence and even the formation of so many new countries and nations.
