:17:04
What do you got on your mind?
:17:07
You know all about our business.
l don't need to go into that.
:17:12
Of course, this Depression
isn't going to last forever.
:17:16
But if it takes a little longer
than we figure...
:17:18
l want to know
if you and your associates...
:17:21
would be in a position
to sort of tide us over.
:17:26
l appreciate that l'd have to turn over
some of my holdings to you.
:17:30
l'd rather not disturb
the other stockholders.
:17:34
l don't know anything
about your business, Jordan.
:17:37
But it looks to me like it's gone to seed.
:17:40
All l have to do is look around this office.
:17:42
To tell you the truth,
l don't think you have much to offer.
:17:45
Now, look here, Packard.
:17:47
Our ships have traveled the ocean
for a century.
:17:49
We started from clipper ships.
:17:51
We're not going to stop.
We're not through.
:17:55
l'm sorry, Jordan. l didn't mean anything.
:17:59
You know, l'm a businessman,
and everybody's bothering you.
:18:03
- l apologize, Jordan.
- That's all right.
:18:06
Now, l may be wrong.
Tell you what you do.
:18:09
You get me some figures on this thing:
:18:11
the assets, the stockholders,
a list of them, and the holdings....
:18:15
You submit it to me,
l'll give you an answer within 24 hours.
:18:19
That's very kind of you.
:18:24
- What's the matter? Got a pain?
- Oh, no.
:18:27
- lt's a little indigestion.
- lndigestion? Half a lemon.
:18:30
l get it all the time.
Half a lemon in hot water.
:18:33
l got to travel, l'm in a hurry.
:18:36
You send me all the dope.
l'll do whatever l can. So long.
:18:51
Mr. Jordan, l wouldn't trust that man
as far as l could throw a bull by the tail.
:18:59
l hope you're wrong.
