Scarecrow King of the Munchkins? What story is that in?--L.E./12.144.5.2/le@put.com

I believe Oz was originally satire aimed at William Jennings Bryan, the Democratic Presidential candidate in 1896, 1900, and 1908, but I see nothing about that here. Am I right on this?

I don't think Oz comes directly from "Oz-tralia" but rather either from "AUS" - the international 3-letter identification code for Australia or from "Aussie" (I don't know which came first), perhaps someone would care to look into this vital matter...
