Now, what do you want?

We need 200,000 right away
to cover your account.

I gave you twenty grand
this morning.

I need it again.
I'll give you an hour -

if you haven't got it,

I'll have to sell you out,
Eddie.

All right, I'll get it.

(CROWDS YELLING)

(MUSIC)

Hello, Dad.

Son.

No luck, huh?
- Ha, not very much.

I saw Jenkins at
the lumber company.

Ha,he didn't give me
very much encouragement.

Oh, well,

don't you worry.

You'll get something soon now.

Go wash up, luncheon's ready.

(AIRCRAFT ENGINE NOISE)

Attention.

Forward.

Turn!

Left.

Goodbye, Danny,

it's been nice having
you here with us.

You're probably the best
head keeper of any big house

in the country,

but if it's all the same to you,

I wish we'd never met.

Well, you've been a pretty good
prisoner and I only wish we had

more like you.

I know, I know,

just one big happy family.

Drop me a line once in a while.

I'll get you a nice new padlock
for your birthday.

So long.

Don't do this and don't do that.

What do you want me
to do anyhow?

Oh, it's that insane temper
of yours.

(PASSENGERS SCREAMING)

(APE GROWLING)

(SCREAMING CONTINUES)

This is Rudi Vallee again,

stepping perhaps a bit
out of character

and singing a song
from Americana.

A song that has taken
its audiences by storm

which may be explained
by its theme

which is both poignant

and different.

'Brother Can You Spare A Dime'.

(RUDY VALLEE SINGING)
They used to tell me

I was building a dream

and so I followed the mob

When there was earth to plow
or guns to bear

I was always there

right on the job

They used to tell me
I was building a dream

with peace and glory ahead

Why should I be standing in line

just waiting for bread

Once, I built a railroad,

made it run,

made it race against

time

Once I built a railroad,

now it's done

Brother, can you spare a dime

Once, I built a tower,

to the sun,

bricks and rivets and lime

Once I built a tower,

now it's done

brother, can you spare a dime

Once in khaki suits,

gee, we looked swell

full of that yankee doodle dum

Half a million boots

went slogging through hell

and I was the kid with the drum!

Hey, don't you remember
they called me Al

it was Al, all the time

Hey, don't you remember

I'm your pal

buddy, can you spare a dime!

(TRAIN WHISTLE)

(SCREAMING)

Tommy!

One evening as the sun went down
and the jungle fire was burning

Down the track came
a hobo hiking

and he said "Boys,
I'm a turning"

"I'm headed for a land
that's far away,

beside the crystal fountains"

"So come with me,
we'll go and see

the big rock candy mountain"

"In the big rock candy mountain,

there's a land that's
fair and bright

where the handouts
grow on bushes

and you sleep out every night"

No, you've got to go back boys.

I thought this
was a free country.

Yes, it's a free country.

I'll explain all that to you.

You're coming into the country,
here you're violating

the vagrancy laws.
You have no money,

roaming from place to place, no,

uh, place of residence,
no established residence.

There's too many people
in here already.

They... they just can't go
any further.

You got a better chance
of getting relief

when you get down and out
and back in your home

where you belong.

(TRAIN NOISE)

But... uh...

aren't we all going
through hard times.

There doesn't seem to be...

any...

quiet,

easy,

period of sunshine...

for any of the...

great...

European

and American...

nations.

There all...

under the pressure of events.

The whole world
is under pressure.

There is, uh, feeling
of deep anxiety.

(MUSIC)

(SIREN)

(SCREAMING)

I'm hungry.

What would you say
to a hamburger?

What would I say
to a hamburger? Oh, boy.

I'd take Mr. Hamburger
by the hand and say,

Pal,

I haven't seen you
in a long, long time.

(EDDIE CANTOR SINGING)
Potatoes are cheaper,

tomatoes are cheaper,

now's the time to fall in love

Why, the butcher, the baker,

the old candlestick maker

gave their price
a downward shove

Grab yourself someone to fry
your eggs and bacon

She can live just like a queen
on what your makin'

You'll find it's sunshine
or trouble

you're better off double

now's the time to fall in love

It's the depression, dearie.

(GINGER ROGERS SINGING)
Ten cents a dance

pansies and rough guys

(BACKGROUND SINGING)
Another one.

I want to insult my liver.

Hello, Briggs.

Could I see you private, Danny?

Pardon me.

What's on your mind. Leo?

You look like the score's
against you.

I got worries.

Who ain't. Think of the guys
on the breadline.

(SINGING)
And you will eat,

by and by,

in that glorious land
above the sky

Work and pray,

live on hay,

you'll get pie in the sky
when you die

(GUNFIRE AND SCREAMING)

(EXPLOSION)

All right, bring him out.

( CHORUS SINGING)

(JOAN BLONDELL SINGING)
And once you used to love me

I was happy then

He used to take care of me

Won't you bring it back again

(CHORUS CONTINUES SINGING)

Come on, come on, spill it.
What's on your mind?

Would you let me have a dime
for a cup of coffee?

There's a buck.

Buy yourself a percolator.

(GINGER ROGERS SINGING)
We're in the money,

we're in the money,

we've got a lot of what
it takes to get along

We're in the money,

the sky is honey,

old man depression you are
through you done us wrong, oh...

We never see headlines
about breadlines today

And when we see the landlord
we can look that guy

right in the eye, oh!

We're in the money,

come on, my honey

Let's lend it, spend it,
send it rollin' around

Now, uh,

Franklin...

I can call you Franklin
and because I've known you

for many years.

I... you-you used to come
to the follies as a boy

and see our show.

(CROWD LAUGHING)

In fact...

in fact you've come
there as an old man

to see it too.
(CROWD LAUGHING)

And, uh...

You used to come to the follies
and like all notables,

I would ask him to get up
and say something

and I would think he
was going to get up and...

maybe say something nice
about Ziegfeld's show,

but he would get up and nominate
Smith for something.

(CROWD LAUGHING)

We, of California,

proudly present this
home spun american!

A man in the best acceptation
of that term

to lead us to victory
in November

as the next president
of the United States!

I nominate him

and I give him to you
as your candidate!

Our great, glorious Californian,

Herbert Hoover!
(CROWD CHEERING)

The candidate of this convention
shall be and must be

that incarnation
of Thomas Jefferson,

Franklin Delano Roosevelt
of New York.

(CROWD CHEERING)

Governor Roosevelt,

I wish to congratulate you
upon your nomination.

Thanks, ever so much.

You see these telegrams...
that's just the...

product of five minutes.

The last five minutes.

It must be wonderful.

Thanks, very much.

More than a political campaign,

it is a call to arms!

Give me your help,

not to win votes alone,

but to win in this crusade

to restore America

to its own people!

Now, my friends, I am waging
a war in this campaign.

A frontal attack,

an onset...

against...

the four horsemen

of the present
Republican leadership.

(BOOING)

And...

And those horsemen are these:

destruction,

delay,

deceit,

and despair!

I'm a farmer,

and I'm gonna vote
for the Democratic nominee

for President.

... and after listening to
President Hoover's speech

over the radio,

I'm fully confident that he will
bring back prosperity back

to this nation.

I'm gonna vote for
Governor Roosevelt

because I think he'll
bring back prosperity.

May those of you

who intend a solution,

who'd decline
the defeatist attitude,

join tirelessly with me

in the work of advancing
to a better ordered

economic life.

My friends, the time has come -

the hour has struck.

(TRAIN CRASHING NOISE)

I pledge myself

to a new deal for
the American people.

I am a clergyman,

I voted the Socialist ticket.

However, since
Mr. Roosevelt was elected,

I wished that he might realize

that we need most

a complete reorganization

of our economic system.

Listen,

they was robbed of
over 200,000 dollars,

can you beat that!

... stole over a quarter
of a million,

can you beat that.

We can't laugh that off.

I thought the Union National
was pretty solid.

I did too, but a half a million
is a lot of money.

Yes, sir,

the messenger boy just told me,

that... that Mr. Dixon took
all the money himself

and it was more than
a million dollars.

More than a million dollars?

Cross my heart.

And I sure hopes that man
gets a long time in jail too.

(LAUGHTER)

You have money in that bank too?

Yes, something wrong?

Mon dieu! Mon dieu!

Run down there and get
your money at once!

(MAN SPEAKING IN GERMAN)

Oh, please hurry, just now!

Union National is sunk.

I told you we should have
put it in a vault.

Everybody's taking
their money out.

Union National's broke.
- Holy John, Julius Priest!

My money is all gone!
Mother just told me!

That dirty dog!
- I just heard it.

... tipping you off.
- Bank's broke!

Closing your account?
- Yes, sir,

I'm closing my account.

I wouldn't leave a nickel
in this bank.

(CLAMORING AND RIOTOUS CROWD)

I'll need some more money.
All the depositors

are withdrawing.

I know, I know.
I'll get you some.

It's gettin' so a guy's money
ain't safe

unless it's in his sock.

There all a bunch of crooks.
- You said it.

(CROWD CHEERING)

(GUNSHOTS)

When the first shot was fired,

I realized he was shooting
at the President,

so my first thought was to get
the pistol up in the air

so he wouldn't hurt
any of the bystanders.

I was called in by
the state's attorney

and the sheriff to examine
this man who tried to

to assassinate
President Roosevelt

right after the crime
and I found him to be

sane in every respect.

What for in your mind?

I told you before.

I have all...
- Capitalists!

All time in the mind
the Capitalists are killing me.

I suffer this thing in the
stomach for the Capitalists.

I know for the Capitalists.

I know everything there's
sickness in my stomach.

You don't kill him
if he's not President?

No.

If he's not the President,
I have no need to kill him.

You like Mr. Roosevelt as a man?

I like, uh...

No, I like, uh...

If he's not the President,
I'm not gonna kill him

if he's not the President.
He's the President.

Would you shoot me?

You're not President.

You won't shoot me?

Why, would I shoot you?
You're a working man.

If we let you go, will you kill-
kill him now?

Yeah, you let me go.

(MUSIC)

I, Franklin Delano Roosevelt,

do solemnly swear

that I will faithfully execute
the office

of President
of the United States

and will to the best
of my ability,

preserve, protect and defend

the constitution
of the United States,

so help me God.

This is a day of
national consecration.

And I am certain

that on this day
my fellow Americans,

expect that on my induction
into the Presidency

I will address them
with a candor

and a decision

with the present situation
of our people in peril.

Let me assert my firm belief

that the only thing
we have to fear is...

fear itself.

Nameless, unreasoning,
unjustified terror

which paralyzes needed effort

to convert retreat

into advance.

This nation is asking for action

and action now!

(MUSIC AND BELL CLANGING)

The speech of Roosevelt
has done more to restore

faith and confidence

in the United States

than any other thing
during the past year.

And I feel that if everybody
stands behind our President

and our present, uh,
financial difficulties

will soon be dissipated.

Fear, which I think
is at the bottom

of all our troubles

will soon vanish

and everything
will be well again.

Glad Roosevelt is
now our President.

I hope he will bring us
back our beer

and how.

(RUDY VALLEE SINGING)
There is a tavern in the town

(CHORUS SINGING)
In the town

And there my true
love sits him down

(CHORUS SINGING)
Sits him down

And drinks his wine

as nutty as can be

and never never thinks of me

Feature goes on in 15 minutes.

Seats in the balcony only.

Stairway to the right, please.

Tommy, Edward G. Robinson
in the dark?

It's not.

We got to get a load
of that guy.

Yeah, he's not bad.

Hey, you got a Mickey Mouse
on the bill today?

No, not today.

What, no Mickey Mouse?

No, no Mickey Mouse.

Why?

Because he's making a personal
appearance in Jersey City.

Oh, you're trying to kid
somebody, huh?

Ha ha ha ha.

Come on, Slick,
let's get our dough back.

I speak for the majority
of the Senate

and the House
of Representatives.

Assured,

that President Hammond
has been a traitor to his party.

False to the principles
on which he was elected.

I propose to demand
from the House

the impeachment,

the immediate removal

of the President
of the United States!

(LOUD CHEERING)

Quiet!

Mr. President,

there is a movement in Congress
for your impeachment.

Hardly the time for making
any request, however small.

Very well.

I shall withdraw that request,

but I would like
to substitute another.

I ask you Gentlemen to declare
a state of national emergency

and to adjourn this congress

until normal conditions
are restored.

(MURMURING)

During the period
of that adjournment,

I shall assume
full responsibility

for the government.

Mr. President,
this is dictatorship.

Senator Langham,

words do not frighten me.

But the United States
of America is a democracy.

We are not yet ready to give up
the government of our town.

(LOUD CHEERING)

I have surveyed this situation,

that the spare time

of the secretary
to the president

is just about sufficient
to allow him to go out

and have a good game of golf

every other year.

I'm the President's
personal bodygaurd.

I go where he goes.

I have been with him
the past four years

while he was the Governor
of New York state.

I wanna say,

that anybody who has
no business with him

better look out.

And believe me

I don't mean maybe!

This is a partial reunion
of the Roosevelt family

before the men start off
tomorrow on a little cruise

up the New England coast.

My wife is sitting next to me

and on her knee
is Anna Elanor Dall,

our oldest grandchild.

And then comes my daughter,

Anna Dall and on her lap,

Buzzy.

And then comes my mother.

And standing behind me,
Franklin Junior

and my oldest boy James

and my youngest boy John

and my son-in-law, Curtis Dall.

And so were starting
on the cruise tomorrow.

What's our campaign slogan,
Cissie?

Happy days are here again!

Uh, this is Mr. Al Jolson,

Marshall of the Motion
Picture Industry's division

of the N.R.A. Parade.

It's the biggest thrill
I ever had in my life.

I thought I was thrilled
the night I was married,

but this has got it on it.

I was only married to one woman,
there are millions here

and they're all for the N.R.A.

and Franklin Delano Roosevelt.

(MUSIC)

...but what's the use?

You're not going
to believe me

and I don't care whether
you do or not.

Go ahead, put me in the cell,
lock me up.

I'm sick of being
hungry and cold!

Sick of freight trains!

Jail can't be any worse
than the street!

So, give it to me!

Eddie...

I'm going to dismiss your case.

You're gonna what?

Further more,
I'm going to help you.

I'll phone the personnel manager
of the place that gave you

that job and see
that you go to work.

Gee, Judge.

I'm going to do my part

and now, I want
you to do yours.

Camp, is a wonderful
physical developer.

I wouldn't take 500 dollars
for the experience

I'm going through here.

It beats...

'Brother, can you spare a dime'.

I am a lawyer.

Roosevelt,

has done more in his
first year in office

than other administrations have
done in the last eight years.

Roosevelt will go down
in history as one

of our greatest Presidents.

Mr. Cromwell,

I've got great news for you.

What's the excitement?
- The depression is over.

The depression is over?
- Over! Do you realize that?

Factories are opening up.
Men are going back to work

by the thousands.

Our farm products are being sold
the world over.

Savings accounts are heaping up.

The banks are pouring out
new loans.

There is no unemployment,

fear has been banished,
confidence reborn,

poverty has been wiped out!

Laughter resounds
throughout the nation,

the people are happy again!

We're out of the red!

(CHORUS SINGING)

And now, friends, uh,

this meeting is called
on the office

of the American
Workers Party.

An organization

dedicated to the organizing of
the working class of America

as the overthrow of Capitalism.

An organization
that today realizes

that there is no way out of the
present capitalistic crisis

under the so-so called
set-up in America.

It is therefore necessary
for the working class

to organize into militant,

fighting,

left-wing organizations

on the political field,

on the industrial field

and eventually

overthrow this terrible,

rotten, capitalistic system.

A couple of days ago,

our distinguished President,

Franklin Delano Roosevelt,

that marvelous savior of America

broadcast over the air.

And he told us
that the N.R.A.

had benefited us
to a great extent.

And the question arises

as to what benefits

we the working class of America

have received from the N.R.A.

Have we received a better
standard of living?

Have we received jobs?

Have we received a better
place to live?

Have we received relief

or are we still suffering
from malnutrition?

Mm, wait a minute,
wait a minute.

I got an idea.

Let's try a little roulette.

Los Angeles.

Ha ha.

Don't go away, folks.

This oughta be good.

(AL JOLSON SINGING)
California,

here I come

Right back where

I started from...

(BETTY COMPSON SPEAKING)
I lived and loved

succeeded and failed

in Hollywood.

I've known Hollywood

of the sandlot

and the silent pictures,

of wild scandals

and the hectic talking era.

I have known of
Hollywood love affairs,

not as the gossips
whisper about them,

but rather as
beautiful romances

while they lasted.

I believe that love

is one of the main reasons
for existence.

I knew Rudolph Valentino
when he was just a cafe dancer.

Gloria Swanson,

when she was a bathing beauty,
like myself.

And I knew Lon Chaney when
he was just a bit player.

Hollywood, has been called
'heartbreak town'

by a number of
sentimental writers.

Well,

maybe it is,

but it's a swell place
after all.

Oh, yes,

and I've also written a book

revealing all my eighteen years
in Hollywood.

You see...

I know, what a young girl
doesn't know.

Hello, sugar.

Say,

do you wanna go
into pictures?

I've just written a great part
for a girl like you.

Why don't you stick
to blackmailing.

You want me to call Nick over?
- Sure.

Call him over and tell him
about that 17-year old girl

you put in pictures.

That's my price.

I just got through making
a personal appearance tour

on their 'palsy-walsy' circuit
and I'm box office!

I got box office sticking out
all over me.

So long.

Well, what have you got?

I got box office, too.

I want some cold cuts.

And a lot of ham.

Hey, girlie, would you mind
leaving that phone here.

Women are getting fed up
with the blonde types.

Like I said, Latin types
are coming back.

Look at Clark Gable,
he's through.

Yeah, Clark Gable.
- Now, listen...

Come on, let's take
a look in there.

Hey, you!

Hey, wait!

Hey, I want to talk to you!

Grab him!

Here, here, w-wait a minute.

What's your hurry?

I wasn't in any hurry. I...

I just didn't see you,
that's all.

What's your name?

Where do you live?

Danny Diva.

It's all right, Officer,
we want to talk to this guy.

Who are you?

I'm from the National Studios
in Hollywood.

Oh, yes.

We're lookin' for types,
new faces.

Tough guys for
a gangster picture.

You want a job?

Doin' what?

Acting in pictures.

Who are ya tryin' to rib?

Do you want it or don't you?

Well, what's in it?

Three bucks a day
and a box lunch.

I'm on.

It's me again.

All right, turn around.

Under the arms!

All ready!

Everybody on the scene!

Come on, you cowboys!

All you Indians!

All you settlers!

Come on, snap it up!
Snap it up, boys! Hurry it up!

Get in places here!

Come on, boys,
get rid of that lead!

Get rid of that lead!

Come on, come on, boys!

Are you ready?

Start your action!

Go!

Run!

Give it all you have got!

Ride!

Ride!

Give me the feeling!

Give me the tempo!

Give me the movement!

Attaboy!

Come on!

(SCREAMING)

Attaboy!

Don't fall off from the horse!

You are chief of the Indians!

Come on!

Attaboy!

Okay,

cut!

Fifteen minutes for lunch!

Now, listen, babe,

I'm a man of few words, see.

I've been chasing you all night.

Now, how about a little kiss,
baby?

Well, fancy meeting you here.

(BESSIE SMITH SINGING)

Once I lived the life
of a millionaire

spendin' my money, I didn't care

I carried my friends out

for a good time

buying bootleg liquor,

champagne and wine

When I begin to fall so low,

I didn't have friend

and no place to go,

but if I ever get my hand

on a dollar again

I'm gonna hold on to it

till them eagle's grin

Nobody knows you

when you down and out

In my pocket not one penny

and my friends, I...

haven't any

But if I ever get
on my feet again

then I'll meet
my long lost friend

It's mighty strange

without a doubt

nobody knows you
when you

down and out

I mean when you
down and out

(MUTED TRUMPET SOLO)

(HUMMING)

When you down and out

not one penny

and my friends, I...

haven't any

And I felt so low

nobody wants me

'round their door

Without a doubt

no man can use you
when you down and out

I mean when you down and out

I'd like to see it rain.

I have seen it, but I'd like
to have my son see it.

Even if it did rain,
it wouldn't do any good now.

The crops are already gone.

I been farmin' 50 years and this
is the worse I ever seen.

We're mighty bad off,
but I guess there's lot of em'

worse off than we are.

Well, things looks pretty tough,

but it ain't gonna be
this way all the time.

I'm a lookin' for better times.

I think the crop failure
is the end of it

and...

I have lot of faith in our...

good government.

The Federal Bureau
of Investigation

is as close to you

as your nearest telephone.

I'm John Dillinger's father
and I feel like that if John...

was given a parole or...

exonerated for his...

what he has done, I don't think
he has done near as much

as they claimed he has,

but I think he'd, uh,

if he's given a chance
would go straight

and, uh, as far as the, uh...

family reunion that he claimed
we had, we just have to have a...

Sunday dinner and...

no, uh, preparations made,

only for the dinner, but we
didn't know that John was...

coming.

John just happened
to drop in on us.

(WILLIAM TELL OVERTURE)

(SIRENS AND GUNFIRE)

Hi ho silver away!

(EXPLOSIONS AND GUNFIRE)

There is nothing mysterious
about the manner

in which the Federal Bureau
of Investigation works.

It's formula is a simple one.

Intensive training,

carefully investigated

and highly efficient personnel

plus rigged requirements
in regard to conduct,

intelligence and integrity.

I arrived at the scene
of the shoot...

the shooting of John Dillinger

and found that the body
had been taken

to the Election Brothers
Hospital,

and from there to the
the County Morgue.

I went to the County Morgue

and questioned
the government agents

who told me that...

they had shot Don
J-John Dillinger

as he drew a gun

in front of the theater.

I then searched the body
and found...

from my search

that it was John Dillinger

as there was a picture
of Evelyn Pershetti,

his sweetheart in the watch.

I'm awful sorry, that John got
into this trouble-

and sorry that it ended up
the way that it has.

John had...

a raw deal at the start

and had, uh...

grudge against
the people he knew

for...

getting such a raw deal.

I say I'm very sorry
that it happened

and...

want the people to...

know that I tried...

to raise him right...

and...

and he's always been
a goodhearted boy.

Already, these rats
are running for cover

and it's a duty of every
law abiding citizen

to help ferret them
from their hiding place

and see that when caught,

they are treated for
what they really are-

rats!

I was only out last Friday

met a girl by the name of Liza

we goes in the cafe and sit down

She was beginning
to call me 'honey'

I was beginning
to spend my money

I thought you was
the smartest girl in town

When I began to ordering whiskey

Liza, she got frisky

like women full of whiskey
generally does

Now, when I went to pay the man

I found Liza's hand

right in my pocket
where my money was

She's in the jailhouse now

and I'm in the chain gang now

I told the judge to his face
Liza's hand was out of place

She's in the jailhouse now.

(GUNSHOTS)

Cut! Cut! Cut!

Hey, you, come here!

Me?
- Come here!

That was awful terrible!

The punch looked fakey!

You missed him that far.

I thought you said you knew
how to hit a guy.

Now, we'll take it again.

This time, put something
into it.

Make it look real!

Turn him around,
set him up with a punch!

Lay it in there, he can take it!

Lay it in there!

Mr. Williams!
- What is it?

We better get a doctor!
This birds out cold!

Come on now, work
yourselves into...

into the emotion
of such a scene.

Don't be extras,

be a nation

watching its manhood

ride out on a great cause-

the crusade.

Are you ready, Tate?

All ready and turning,
Mr. Demille.

Alright, now,

give me everything
you got you people!

Scene 957.

Place everybody, this is a take!

Clear the set!

Right...

Camera!

(CRUSADERS SINGING)

Alright, cut.

The rough and ready type is what
women go for nowadays.

Well, how about that young fella

who did the bit
in the prison scene?

He's been coming right along.

You mean, Quigley?

Yeah.

Mm, he's got possibilities.

Yes, and you should see
the fan mail he's been getting.

between two and three hundred
letters every week!

Well...

how many you got there now?

It's over 200.

Well, that ought to hold
them for today.

Listen, I tell you what do.

Hop in your car and mail some
from Long Beach,

Santa Monica and Pasadena.

And say, do you know anybody
in San Fransico or Portland

or Seattle or those places?

Yeah, I got some friends
up there.

Alright, mail some to them
and have em' mail em' back.

Quiet! Quiet! Quiet!

We're trying to take
a scene here.

We got 4000 people on this set.

You people chatter
like a lot of monkeys.

Now, keep quiet!
Attend to your business!

Up.

What's that girl doing over
there with a 1935 head dress?

You know, this isn't a fantasy,
this is history.

Well, of all the...

We spend thousands and thousands
of dollars on research.

We comb the museums
of the world.

We scour every library there is

to get accurate
and authentic detail

and they give me a girl
that looks as though

she just walked out
of a beauty salon.

Little gal

And the mockingbird is singing
in the locust by the dew

Little gal,

little gal,

there's a humming
and a strumming

in the land from East to West

I'se a sighing for you honey...

(SINGING CONTINUES)

You done told us goodbye now.

You gonna stick to it?

Sure, I am.

Because your big time
from this (UNINTELLIGIBLE)

Now, we's gonna take up

Financials.

Yeah, brother.

And right here's the estimate
for the profits for the run.

Now, if you wrenchin' a dime
out of this,

you're doin' well.

And number three here,

boy, that's good for a half.

That's what I want
to tell you about.

You know, there's two kind
of women that ride the pullin's.

There's the kind that says,

"What have you been pullin'?"

That don't mean nothin',
but a trip.

Then there's the kind
that sings out,

"Hello there, Jack Johnson"

and boy that means money.

And now,

the corporate element
of this state

that were cheap cajoles,

hand-in-hand with them

who profited by,

who ransacked this state
for the element of their allies

are being told what they can do

and what they can't do,

what they will pay,

what they can't keep from pay

for the welfare of the people
of Louisiana

and we expect to have
this state ruled by the people

and not by the law and the
interest of high finance.

Every man a king,
every girl a queen,

for you can be a millionaire

But there's something
belonging to others

there's enough for
all people to share

When in sunny June
and December too

for in the winter time or Spring

There will be peace without end
every neighbor or friend

with every man a king.

Thank you.

Thank you.

There is too much nonsense
and not enough horse sense

How many men ever went
to a barbecue

and would let one man take off
the table what's intended

for nine tenths of
the people to eat?

The only way you'll
ever be able to feed

the balance of the people
is to make that man come back

and bring back some of that grub
he ain't got no business with.

I was elected railroad
commissioner of Louisiana

in 1918...

and they tried to impeach
me in 1920.

When they failed
to impeach me in 1920,

they indicted me in 1921...

And when I wiggled through that
I managed to become Governor

in 1928...

and they impeached me in 1929.

Senator, is your hat in the ring
for 1936?

If the events continue as they
now are and circumstances

are what they appear to be,

it's almost certain that I
will be a candidate.

That is, if it's Hoover to
dominate the Republican side,

Roosevelt to dominate
the Democratic side,

unemployment and business
depression to continue,

yes, I would run.

For I would have an election
held in this country

between high popalorum
and low popahirum.

Roosevelt on the one hand
and Hoover on the other,

the twin bedmates of disaster.

Twenty years of newspaper
experience failed to prepare me

for the tragedy I witnessed
Sunday night.

I was coming out of
Governor Allen's office

when I heard a shot.

Outside in the hall
I noticed Senator Long

stagger away, clasping his side
with his right hand.

Half a dozen other members
of the Senator's guard

joined the shooting

and the man which shot
Senator Long pitched forward,

dead from thirty
or forty bullets.

Senator Long, meanwhile,

walked down the hall,
descended the stairway

and was aided into an automobile
and taken to the nearby

Lady of the Lake Sanitarium
where he died 30 hours later.

Say something more.

Well, give me a chance, fellas.
- Say something, come on.

Were all down and out
and a fella like you comes along

it kind of gives us
a little hope.

Franklin D. Roosevelt,

the nominee for acclimation

of this convention.

I accept the nomination

of the Republican Party

for the Presidency

of the United States.

I intend to cast my first vote
for President Roosevelt

because I'm a child
of the depression.

I came of age at a time
when there was no security

and no opportunity.

Let me warn you

and let me warn the nation

against the smooth evasion

that says,

"Of course, we believe
these things."

"We believe in social security."

"We believe in work
for the unemployed."

"We believe in saving homes."

"Cross our hearts
and hope to die."

"We believe in
all these things,

but we do not like the way
the present administration

is doing them."

"Just turn them over to us."

"We will do all of them."

"We will do more of them."

"We will do them better

and most important of all,

the doing of them,

will not cost anybody anything."

(LAUGHTER)

The cost of the New Deal

threatens to exceed that
of the Great War.

Roosevelt!

Roosevelt.

I intend to vote
for Governor Landon

because I believe he's a man
who will keep his promises

and because I believe
he will keep down

the future taxes which
I'll have to pay.

I...

hate...

war!

Landon.

Roosevelt!

Landon.

Roosevelt!

"For twelve years our nation
was afflicted"

with hear nothing,

see nothing,

do nothing,

government.

Nine crazy years at the ticker

and three long years
in the breadline.

Nine mad years of mirage

and three long years of despair.

And my friends,

powerful influences strive today

to restore that
kind of government

with its doctrine that
that government is best

which is most indifferent
to mankind.

(SONG)

Just hand me my old pardon

for soon I will be startin'

back to dear old Charlston
far away

Since Roosevelt's
been re-elected

we'll not be neglected
we've got Franklin D. Roosevelt

back again

Back again
- Back again

Back again

The name of the people

in the future

and in the honored presence

of guest from many nations,

I call you to life.

No more breadlines

we're glad to say the donkey

About 189.

Yes, I did,

I think I have a great chance

He is a very tired fighter!

Candidate, Frank Taylor,

you will kneel and take
the oath of allegiance.

Raise your right hand.

Read.

In the name of God
and the devil,

one to reward
and the other to punish,

and with the powers
of light and darkness,

good and evil,

here under the black arch
of heaven's avenging symbol,

I pledge and consecrate
my heart, my brain, my body

and my limbs.

I swear that I will die fighting
those whose serpent trail

has winnowed the fair fields
of our allies and sympathizers.

I will show no mercy,

but strike with an avenging arm
as long as breath remains.

Do I have to say this?

Say it.

I will pray to an avenging God

and an unmerciful devil
to tear my heart out

and roast it over the flames
of sulphur.

And lastly,

may my soul be given
to the torment

that my body be submerged
into molten metal

and stifled in
the flames of hell.

Our sacred oath is now engraved
on your heart.

You'll need that perishable
paper no more.

Step forward and consign it
to these flames.

Congratulations.

Thank you.

Congratulations.
- Congratulations, friend.

Congratulations.

We will no rise and take
the oath of office.

Place your right hand over
your heart and repeat after me.

We swear allegiance to our flag.

And to the country
for which it stands.

To always be law abiding

Now, remember, all you
good Flaming Arrows,

the password is...

'Our Country'.

'Our Country'.

Millions throughout the world,
envy us the privilege and rights

to call ourselves Americans.

Let us prove our deep
appreciation of that privilege

by rededicating ourselves
to true 'Americanism',

with faith in God,

faith in man,

faith in liberty

caught fire,

the woods, the barns...

the gas tanks-tanks
of the automobiles,

it's spreading everywhere!

It's coming this way now!

It's about twenty yards
from my right!

Ladies and gentlemen,

due to circumstances beyond
our control,

we are unable to continue the
broadcast from Grover's Mill.

Evidently, there's
some difficulty

with our field transmission.

(SCREAM)

(CAR LOUD SPEAKER)
Calling all able-bodied citizens.

Report at sheriff's office
for an emergency.

(SIRENS)

I simply don't know.
I can't imagine. I mean, uh...

You must realize that I...

When I left the broadcast
last night, I went into...

a dress rehearsal for a play
that's opening in two days

and I've had almost no sleep

and I... I know less
about this than you do.

I haven't read the papers.

I would have been surprised
if-if, uh...

and-and-and...

hurt as anybody would if they'd
been told that a presentation

was less effective than life.

The...

Of course...

we are deeply shocked
and...

deeply regretful...

about the results of, uh...

last night's broadcast.

It came rather as a great
surprise to us that...

a story...

a...

fine H.G. Wells...

classic...

fantasy the original for so
many succeeding comic strips

and adventure stories
and novels...

about a mythical invasion by
monsters from the planet Mars

should have had so...

profound an effect
upon radio listeners.

You...

undergraduates...

and possibly...

some of you...

graduates,

who see me for the first time,

have read in your newspapers
and heard on the air,

that I was at the very least...

an ogre.

A consorter with Communists,

a destroyer of the rich,

a breaker of our
ancient traditions.

You may have heard
for six years,

that I was about to plunge
the nation into war.

That you and your...

little brothers...

would be sent to
the bloody fields of battle

in Europe.

That I was driving the nation
into bankruptcy.

And that I breakfasted
every morning

on a dish

of grilled millionaire.

(LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE)

Uh, Mrs. Roosevelt,

it gives me great pleasure
to sell you the first tickets

for the motion picture art fund
for German refugees.

I'm very happy to buy
this ticket from you, Mr. Benny,

and...

how much do I owe you?

Well, that's uh...

25 cents...

for the one ticket.

Can you give me change
for a dollar?

For a... d... dollar?

Well, I...

I haven't the change with me
just now, but I'll be...

glad to send it to you if...

if you'll...

just stay in one place.

September 3rd, The White House,
Washington, D.C.

To allay anxiety
and relieve suspense,

the President of
the United States,

Franklin D. Roosevelt, speaks
tonight on international affairs

to clearly state the position
of the country.

This morning, the United States
was awakened by the voice

of Prime Minister Chamberlain
of England,

declaring that a state of war
existed between

that country and Germany.

So swiftly followed development
after development

in this history making day.

And now, Ladies and Gentlemen,

the President of
the United States.

"My countrymen and my friends,

tonight,

my single duty

is to speak to
the whole of America."

"Until, 4:30 o'clock
this morning,

I had hoped against hope,

that some miracle

would prevent a
devastating war in Europe

and bring to an end
the invasion of Poland

by Germany."

"For four long years,

a succession of actual wars

and constant crisis,

have shaken the entire world

and have threatened in each case

to bring on
the gigantic conflict

which is today,
unhappily a fact."

I have said not once,
but many times

that I have seen war

and that I hate war.

I say that

again and again.

I hope the United States
will keep out of this war.

I believe that it will.

And I give you assurance
and reassurance

that every effort
of your government

will be directed
toward that end.

As long as it remains
within my power

to prevent

there will be no blackout
of peace

in the United States.

I can't talk to them right now.

Well, Mr. Warner, I think
we're very lucky

in getting back here safely.
Don't you?

I, uh, don't know about that.
Were you worried?

No.
- Could we have been torpedoed?

No, torpedoed?

Why, I didn't have the slightest
thought of any sort of...

Take Hitler and stick him
on the funny page.

Heil Hitler.

Heil Hitler!

Colonel, we have
Wilhelm Kuhze here.

If you'd like to look
into his record.

I hope he'll talk.

He better.

Send him in!
- Yes, sir.

Wilhelm Kuhze!

Wilhelm Kuhze!
- Wilhelm Kuhze!

Heil Hitler!

Ha ha ha ha.

And now, Wilhelm,

I understand you want
a little tank to play with, huh?

Yes, my father promised me one
if I got a good report card.

But our Fuhrer heard
about your report card

and decided to give you
just what you want!

Heil Hitler!
- Heil Hitler!

Heil Hitler!

Ha ha ha ha.

You, uh...

You are going to tell
your father who gave it to you,

aren't you, Wilhelm?

Sure, our Fuhrer.

And then, uh...

maybe he will like the Fuhrer
a little better, won't he?

Sure.

He, uh...

He doesn't like him now,
does he, Wilhelm?

No, he doesn't.

And, uh...

sometimes

he even says funny things
about him, doesn't he?

Well, he said they named
a Brandy after Napoleon

and they made a herring
out of Bismark

and Hitler's going to end up
as... -A piece of cheese.

Yes.
- Yes.

How did you know?

Well, it's, uh...

It's a natural thought.

Oh.

A natural thought!

Well, I, I hope you don't
misunderstand. I...

I always w... well that is,
you see,

we... we... see, Colonel,

w... I-I hope you
don't doubt my...

Heil Hitler!
- Heil Hitler!

Heil Hitler!

(SEVERAL VOICES SHOUT)
Heil Hitler! Heil Hitler!

Heil Hitler!

Der Fuhrer!

Heil Hitler!
- Heil Hitler!

Heil Hitler!
- Heil Hitler!

Heil myself.

Mrs. Roosevelt,

will the President run
for a third term?

I have never even heard him
speak of a third term.

That valiant American,

Franklin

Delano Roosevelt!
(CROWD ROARING AND CHEERING)

Like most men of my age,

I had made plans for myself.

Plans for a private life
of my own choice

and for my own satisfaction

to begin in January, 1941.

These plans, like
so many other plans,

had been made in a world
that now seems as distant

as another planet.

But, today all private plans

all private lives,

have been in a sense repealed

by an over-riding public danger.

We are not old enough

to have an indispensable man.

We don't have to have
a third term.

I have a great stake
in this country.

My wife and I have given
nine hostages to fortune.

Our children and your children

are more important

than anything else in the world.

The kind of America that they
and their children will inherit,

is of grave concern to us all.

In the light of
these considerations,

I believe that
Franklin D. Roosevelt

should be re-elected,

President of the United States.

Roosevelt wins!

(ETHEL MERMAN SINGING)
But if baby, I'm the bottom,

you're the top

I,

Franklin Delano Roosevelt,

do solemnly swear,

that I will faithfully execute
the office

of President
of the United States

and will to the best
of my ability

preserve,

protect,

and defend the Constitution
of the United States.

So help you God!

So help me God!

We seem to be going
places lately.

Why all the sudden interest?
I thought you were off me.

Well, I thought I would give
you a break.

Ha ha.

Rosebud.

Think he's so hot?

Get a load of this.

All we saw on that
screen was that

Charles Foster Kane is dead.

I know that, I read the papers.
- Ha ha ha ha.

It isn't enough to tell us
what a man did.

You've got to tell us
who he was.

Wait a minute!

What were Kane's last words?

Do you remember boys?

Huh?
- Yes, were.

What were the last words
he said on earth?

Pig! Pig!

(MAN SCREAMING A HOG CALL)
Pig!

Pig! Pig!

Pig! Pig!

Pig!

For today, all private plans,

Yesterday,

December 7th,

1941,

a date which will live

in infamy.

The United States of America

was suddenly and deliberately
attacked

by naval and air forces

of the empire of Japan.

No matter how long
it may take us

to overcome this
premeditated invasion,

the American people
in their righteous might

will win through
to absolute victory.

you ought to hear what my...

in one breath.
