For those wondering about the asbestos gag, in movie theaters, along with most other theaters, fire was a very real threat so they used asbestos and later fiberglass curtains on the stage. Even when assuming they knew the potential health risks, which was guaranteed to kill more people, a fire in a crowded movie theater or asbestosis? There is a Popeye cartoon with a very similar gag, I think it was "Popeye and the forty thieves" involving a dragon.

that was actually pretty accurate, soldiers of both the Axis and the Allies had stuff like that, it's sad but true

...No, that's not what's happening. I'm not trying to come off as rude, but consider this the intuition of someone very familiar with cartoons from that era. In 1943 there was a war to win and we weren't messing around with humanizing the enemy. As far as we knew everyone who didn't support Hitler was indisposed, so to speak, and Warner Brothers was a huge purveyor of wartime propaganda at the time. Schultz is just a funny character and we're more interested in seeing the main villain get hurt.
