- Driven to drink and ruin.
- You write the editorials, don't you?

1:07:07
Yes. Now, I know what you're thinking.
1:07:10
You're saying to yourself,
it's not my fault if people starve.

1:07:13
- It's the fault of the paper.
- Isn't it?

1:07:16
No, it's my fault, it's my mistake.
1:07:19
And all my life I shall be faced
with the knowledge...

1:07:22
that I have wrecked
the lives of 500 people.

1:07:27
That's all I care about, Miss Allenbury.
1:07:29
Those poor, unfortunate souls.
1:07:34
After all, they shouldn't suffer for...
1:07:36
You're right, they shouldn't suffer
for your mistakes.

1:07:39
Miss Allenbury. Thank you.
1:07:43
I knew you'd feel this way.
1:07:45
- They must be taken care of.
- Heaven bless you, Connie. Miss Allenbury.

1:07:49
And you, too, for calling it to my attention.
I shall see to it personally...

1:07:53
that the whole $5 million
goes into a trust fund for them.

1:07:57
You mean you're gonna
go ahead with the case?

1:07:59
I must, to get the $5 million.
Now I shall push it doubly hard.

1:08:04
Now I have a cause.
1:08:06
But the paper will go under. It will fold.
1:08:09
Yes, I know,
but you said that was secondary.

1:08:11
The main thing is to take care of
these poor men and women.

1:08:14
Yes, I know, but there
are other considerations.

1:08:20
Is there anything in this house
for a hungry man?

1:08:23
- Yoo-hoo.
- Hello, my sweet.

1:08:28
Excuse me.
1:08:31
- Hello, darling.
- Hello.

1:08:35
Dear, Mr. Haggerty of the New York Star.
1:08:39
Mr. Chandler.
1:08:40
Well, not William Chandler, the writer?
1:08:43
Yes, I'm William Chandler.
1:08:45
He writes travel books.
1:08:48
That takes you to a lot
of interesting places, doesn't it?

1:08:50
Yes.
1:08:52
Of course, it's all in the day's work.
1:08:54
I'm just becoming familiar with your work.
1:08:57
Yes?
1:08:58
I thought perhaps
you might do something for our paper.
