:18:03
I think a few months' detached service
to perhaps the Public Relations Corps

:18:09
should put the Major
right back in the pink.

:18:13
Mr Secretary! Mr Secretary!
:18:15
Can you explain
the proposed cut in budget?

:18:20
Since you've asked
a simple-minded question,

:18:22
I will give you
an equally simple-minded answer.

:18:25
Since no great naval power
menaces the free world today,

:18:28
the navy's overwhelming preponderance
of surface ships seems superfluous.

:18:33
Hence the cut in budget.
:18:35
Major, my time is important.
:18:37
How much longer must we go on
with this nonsense?

:18:39
Yes, sir.
:18:41
If there are no further questions for
the secretary, I think that wraps things up.

:18:46
Mr Secretary. I have a question, sir.
:18:50
Who are you, sir?
:18:52
I am United States Senator
John Yerkes Iselin,

:18:55
and I have a question so serious
:18:58
that the safety of our nation
may well depend on your answer.

:19:03
Who?
:19:05
No evasions, Mr Secretary!
No evasions, if you please, sir.

:19:09
What the hell are you talking about?
:19:11
What kind of foolishness is this?
:19:13
I'm new at this job,
:19:15
but it's not good to talk that way
to a US Senator - even if he is an idiot.

:19:19
I am United States Senator
John Yerkes Iselin,

:19:22
and I have here
a list of the names of 207 persons

:19:27
who are known
by the Secretary of Defense

:19:29
as being members
of the Communist Party!

:19:32
What?!
:19:33
Who are still, nevertheless,
working at shaping

:19:37
the policy of the Defense Department!
:19:41
- Senator who?
- I demand an answer, Mr Secretary!

:19:45
There will be no covering up, sir.
:19:47
- What?
- No covering up.

:19:49
You will not get your hands on this list!
:19:51
How did you get in here
in the first place?!

:19:54
Major, throw that lunatic out of here!
:19:56
I deeply regret having to say
in front of these ladies and gentlemen...
