This cartoon “Why Play Leap Frog?“ was originally released in 1949 as part of a series of animated films financed by the Extension Dept. of the Harding College (now Harding University). The series was intended to create a deeper understanding of what has made America the finest place in the world to live. “Leap Frog“ was produced by John Sutherland, who famously voiced the adult Bambi in the 1942 Disney film. Sutherland also produced 45 films from 1945–73; many of which were instructional cartoons that extolled the socioeconomic concept of capitalism and delivering a political message on the benefits of both corporate and individual liberty, and the drawbacks of government interventionThis particular film discusses how wages and productivity are related while promoting the idea that workers need to continually increase production if they want to keep their wages high.
