This is New York calling the world.

The outrage on the frontier early this

morning creates a critical

intercontinental situation.

This is the latest of a series of

deplorable incidents causing friction

between the Federation of Europe and the

Atlantic State.

Despite all the attempts of the World

League of Peace,

despite the annihilation of the old

provocative national boundaries

and the substitution of continental

federations,

the year 1940

finds us faced with as dangerous a

situation as the year 1914.

We look to London, the headquarters of

the Great World League of Peace and of

the government of the Federation of

Europe, to assist us in destroying the

mysterious and unscrupulous forces which

we have reason to believe are seeking to

precipitate another world war.

These spoons are politicians.

Hard loss, my friends. We are about to

be rewarded.

see a nice bit of horse flesh again. Eh,

I wish I could get away like those

fellas. Look. Well, there's old Colonel

Jenkins.

Wise men retired from government house

before they mix up with these Atlantic

people. I tell there they are. Very

nice. Oh, that's not there.

This is New York calling the world.

We shall now broadcast pictures of the

location on the frontier where this

morning's outrage was perpetrated.

Though we regret the accidental death of

the two European rumr runners,

there can be no excuse for the

deliberate and unprovoked attack by the

European troops on the peaceable

guardians of our boundaries.

>> Yes, indeed. Did you hear what that

Atlantic announcer said? What about the

murder of our gods, let alone the rum

runners? Is the European government

going to stand to this? We ought to

declare war on them.

>> Federated War Council are in there now.

Debating.

Debating about arbitration, I suppose.

>> Debating. Why don't we do something? I

tell I say this. This is a nice little

piece.

>> Oh,

peace?

I thought you were talking about war,

not peace.

>> So I was, uh, by your wife.

>> I'm sorry.

>> Wait a moment, sir. Wait a moment.

>> I didn't mean to do that. That's

accidental. I'm sorry.

>> You You can't blot out the the entire

Peace League. We're too strong.

>> Rockar.

Hello.

[snorts] Hello.

Hello.

>> Hello, darling.

>> Hello. I say, isn't it dreadful?

>> You know, I think it's delightful.

>> What?

>> Me looking at you again.

>> Oh, don't ridiculous.

I mean, all this talk about war, isn't

it awful?

>> I think it's marvelous. If they'd only

invent something which would enable me

to touch you.

>> Oh,

but tell me, what is the latest news?

>> The latest news is

>> Yes.

>> But you're dining with me tonight.

>> Tonight?

>> Yes.

>> You're mad.

>> Only about you, darling. I'll call for

you in the car as usual.

>> But you can't. is impossible. Don't you

realize that we may be on the verge of

declaring war?

>> And I'm on the verge of declaring

something much more important than war.

If you'll only die with me tonight.

>> Hello.

>> Hello.

>> Damn.

>> Hello.

>> Is it your wavelength working all right?

>> Of course it is. Fade away. Miss.

There's a war on. I'm not talking to

you.

>> Sorry. You've been trouble.

>> Oh dear.

>> Hello. My dear would be appalling. I

said to her, you know, you like that

poor young man. Go back to her husband.

I told her listen to me. What's the good

of that?

>> I told her.

>> Oh, there you are, darling. I say I'm

awfully sorry. The Duchess cut in. Now,

where were we?

>> I was just telling you I can't possibly

come out tonight. We've got to stop this

war.

>> You know, I think you're perfectly

adorable. when you're official.

>> But Michael, it's war.

>> Then your league must postpone it until

after dinner. We must eat while we can.

I'll call for you as usual. Goodbye.

>> No good. But I can't turn it up.

Michael.

>> Goodbye. Goodbye.

[laughter]

It is my considered opinion and I must

speak frankly now that the European

government they held responsible for

this. I am outrage.

>> Yeah, I find that this is a dreadful.

>> Mr. President, I would kiss.

>> Say, sit down.

>> Our secret police have evidence that the

man who fired the shots was a European

Asian.

>> All although we know that there is a

European plot to blow up our building,

>> but our patience is exhausted.

And with God by our side, the

countryman, we are convinced that only

May I say a word?

>> As representing the world's league of

peace, I deprecate the president's

warlike sentiments.

I have here a message from Dr. Seymour,

the League's Victor general. It states

that over 20 million members of the

League of Peace, not only on both sides

of the Atlantic, but throughout the

world, demand a peaceful settlement. To

the death, they are pledged to resist

war and all warlike preparations.

>> Michael, come in. Mad.

>> Hello, darling.

>> Good evening, sir.

Good evening, Major Dean.

>> What's the latest news from New York? Do

you think there's going to be a war?

>> War?

Of course, there won't be a war. The

people of today are much too

intelligent.

That's what they said in 1914.

It isn't what the country are thinking.

It is what the government intends to do.

They go to the country if they want to

put a penny tax on tea or beer,

but they never dream of taking a

referendum of peace or war.

No, I have great faith in our league and

we shall go on fighting for peace

for I am deeply concerned.

Yes. You know, my chief concern at the

moment is that your daughter might be

late for the dinner that I've ordered.

And you know, cold soup is worse than

any war.

>> Daddy.

Yes.

Do you think you can manage without me?

Well, I I suppose I shall have to

someday.

>> I'm just going to change a minute.

[music]

>> [music]

>> Don't misunderstand me, sir. I'm as much

for peace as you are.

I believe in deeds,

not words.

If you want peace, you must enforce it.

And there is only one way to do that. By

a mercenary army.

>> I join issue with you, Dr. Seymour.

War is bad enough, but at least armies

are held together by ideals of loyalty

and patriotism. Patriotism

is usually a spirit of ignorance and

arrogance which my league is trying to

destroy. Are you prepared to make every

man and woman in this country a traitor

believe that the people themselves

should decide between peace and war.

I'm not. I'm serious.

You see, I am

I hate war, too.

Hate it.

What can I do to stop you?

>> You could refuse to fight. Ah,

>> I see. And then I suppose they'd say,

"Let's call it all off." Dean won't

Now let's talk about us again.

You don't think

I want to fight now,

do you?

The Federated States of Europe are in

immediate danger.

I demand therefore that we disregard the

ultimatum of the Atlantic states.

TAKE A VOTE IF NECESSARY.

>> Then I shall.

I call for a vote to mobilize at once

every man and woman subject to the

Conscription Act of 1938.

First, those for war.

There are 10 for war.

Next, those for peace.

There are 10 or peace,

a deadlock.

Then I have no alternative

but to cast my deciding vote

for war.

Stand by for the European government

official announcement.

The government have decided upon

immediate demobilization

throughout Europe and all men and women

subjected to the conscription act of

1938

will report to their area commonance

forth with

>> stop let me speak to you I do beg of you

to prevent this impending war.

>> Listen, it won't EVEN BE A WAR, BUT

DELIBERATE MURDER.

>> They don't kill THEM. THEY'LL KILL US

FIRST.

>> DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT IT means that

hundreds of our men and women are in

fighting at THE MOMENT IN LOADING

AIRPLANES AS FAR AS TO DESTROY HALF THE

WORLD?

Imagine

this happening to you which is well.

>> But these people have the same rights

from God has been given to us right now

and nice and peaceful.

>> One moment happy and comfortable the

next moment into the air AND THE ROD OF

OUR EXPLOSIVES. THE CHURCH OF POWER and

children.

>> Are we that to try and prevent this

terror? If men are going to carry it,

THEN THE WOMEN SHALL.

>> We will prevent it. It must not be. The

world must be saved.

Even at this moment, hundreds of

European airplanes are waiting to cross

the Atlantic to destroy our beautiful

country.

And without warning, they will attack

our beloved land. They will select our

most important locations,

our cherished countryside, our farms,

our forests, our villages, our bridges,

our cities.

They will launch their deadly bombs of

raging gas

over our faces.

They will drop their canisters of high

explosives

of destructive liquid on New York

whose buildings

like toy castles.

Darling, are you hurt?

>> Oh,

>> let me get back to you.

>> No, NO, NO.

>> YES, LET ME GET BACK.

>> Naturally, you you've heard the order.

>> No, it's wrong.

>> Darling, you don't understand. WOULD YOU

TELL me you love me?

>> I do love you.

>> Then why don't you help me? Help

humanity.

You You've got no moral courage. You're

a coward.

>> I'd sooner be a coward from your point

of view than from my own.

Darling, you must be mad.

Can't you imagine what invasion would

mean?

Can you imagine some war madden brute

seizing you in his arms? And

then would you have me fight when our

country's been bled white of its

manhood?

When even the children are marching,

marching, marching,

then would you have me a coward?

>> Yes.

Because then rather than be honored for

killing your fellow men, you would be

scorned

for loving them. And that is true

courage.

How is it?

YOU. I LOVE YOU. I LOVE IT. I LOVE IT.

With full realization of the

consequences

and with trust in God and the

war.

you are proclaimed a hero.

>> Ah, that's right.

Dr. Seymour, may I express my sympathy

over the peaceful disaster?

Thank you, Mr. President.

Would

you read this, sir?

What is it? It is from our Atlantic vice

president.

Hypocrisy.

We have proof not only of the complicity

of the Atlantic states in the Channel

Tunnel disaster.

But my dear Dr. Seymour, in the

destruction of your own headquarters,

there you see,

time draws near.

At 12, I declare war,

but we have need of all possible unity.

Will you not first broadcast a message

of encouragement to our people? Just one

moment.

Will the government

and the people of Europe

follow you to war?

Yes,

though I have been most anxious because

I realized that your influence was the

greater.

And can you also lead them to peace?

If you so desire

me.

>> Yes.

Then I will broadcast a message

to the world.

the President of the Federated States of

Europe, speaking to the world.

I have here Dr. Seymour,

the president of the World's Peace

League.

He has something vital, no doubt

surprising to say to you regarding the

crisis.

Dr. Seam.

President has asked me to convey to the

whole world the European government will

submit all differences to arbitration

and is confident that the Atlantic

government will agree.

There has been an accident to the

televisor,

but I can still address you through the

microphone.

There shall be peace upon earth

and goodwill

among mankind.

There will be no war.

Calling the world

the Seymour case.

Dr. Seymour, who is charged with the

assassination of the president of

Europe, has during his three weeks trial

maintained absolute silence and has

declined to make any defense.

The trial is now drawing to its close

and tomorrow the judges summing up and

the verdict of the jury will be

broadcast from the old Bailey to all

station.

Michael.

>> Elyn.

>> Oh, Michael.

>> Elyn. Elyn.

>> Well, Michael.

>> Evelyn, my dear. About your father,

can't I help you?

>> Help me? You?

I don't expect any help from your side,

>> but I want to help you. I'm so unhappy

thinking of you fighting all by

yourself. I want to be with you.

>> Is it

too late?

>> Oh, no, Michael. It's not too late if

you really mean it.

>> But I do mean it.

Your father saved the world. I want to

help you through the trial.

They dare not find him guilty.

>> You believe that, too?

>> I'm sure. When can I come and see you?

>> Now,

>> do you mean that?

>> Yes.

>> Right.

This is London calling

the Seymour case.

This is, as you know, the last day of

the trial, and the judge is now

addressing the jury.

It is a judge's duty to use the

opportunity

during the closing moments of the trial

not only to guide the minds of the jury

but to presume to give them some advice.

The fact that the death of a president

brought peace to this world has no

bearing on the case whatsoever.

The fact that had the president lived,

thousands of lives might have been

needlessly sacrificed

has no bearing upon the case. I

a life has been taken and according to

the law, a life is the forfeit.

Ladies

and gentlemen of the jury,

it is now your solemn duty

to consider your verdict.

The court will now the jury consider

touching the trial held here this day.

Jury will follow me.

I remember 20 years ago.

That's very

good.
