The cartoon was "Donald Duck In Nutzy Land" (or something similar). It is 
available in one of the boxed sets of Disney cartoons. As I read the story, 
Spike Jones heard that the Disney studio was making it and asked them to let 
his band do the music.

If you want a strenuous workout, try dancing a polka to the original Jones 
recording, which was a huge hit when it was issued as a single.

If anyone wants a lead sheet of "In Der Führer's Face" (with the original 
lyrics), I can send it to him.
