Title devised by cataloguer from information provided on image.; Published in the Canberra Times on 23 July 1997.; Part of the Pryor collection of cartoons and drawings.; Also available in an electronic version via the Internet at: http://nla.gov.au/nla.pic-vn4314181. There is huge embarrassment for Treasurer Peter Costello at a Pacific regional forum for economic ministers when a 93-page brief on South Pacific leaders and politicians, labelling some corrupt and incompetent, is left lying around and duly falls in the the hands of the media. Predictably, Costello wants heads to roll.--Information provided by Geoff Pryor
