Benjamin Franklin, Jr. is a 1943 Our Gang short comedy film directed by Herbert Glazer.

[1] The gang kids are upset that World War II is causing them deprivations and inconveniences.

Organizing a fact-finding committee, Gang members Mickey, Froggy, Buckwheat, and Janet try to determine what to do about the present national crisis.

With the help of a convenient copy of Benjamin Franklin's Poor Richard's Almanack, the kids stage a play in which they cathartically come to grips with the sacrifices indigenous to the war effort, and provide patriotic solutions to the situation.
