:40:00
- You have already finished?
- Yeah, it's like 2:00 a.m.
:40:04
Ramon was talking so fascinatingly,
I stayed to listen.
:40:07
What was so fascinating?
:40:10
He was talking about the AFL-CIA
and the American labor unions.
:40:15
He described how, after World War II,
men from the American labor union...
:40:19
...the AFL-CIA were sent to Europe
to crush progressive unionism.
:40:23
How'd they do that?
:40:25
With sacks of money and the
anti-Communist tactics of Joe McCarthy.
:40:29
The AFL-CIA?
:40:31
America's largest union,
terribly right wing and facha.
:40:34
You have not heard of it?
:40:36
It's amazing the things Americans
don't know about their country.
:40:40
There's no such thing as the AFL-CIA.
:40:44
It's the AFL-CIO.
:40:46
Actually, it's the A.F. Of L.C.I.O.
:40:49
It was formed when the AFL merged
with the more militant CIO.
:40:54
How do you know so much about it?
:40:56
Chicago is the capital of 20th century
American trade-unionism.
:40:59
The American labor leaders
who came to Europe, Jay Lovestone and...
:41:04
...were giants.
:41:05
So what Marta said was partly true.
:41:07
What do you mean, ''partly true''?
They were people.
:41:11
I'm sure I've heard of the AFL-CIA.
It's some important American labor union.
:41:23
So now it's late enough to dance.
:41:34
There's an empty room
where you could work during the day.
:41:38
Are you proposing we shake up together?
:41:41
Shack up together.
:41:42
You use ''shacked up'' when you don't like
one of the people involved.
:41:46
You and Ramon were shacked up.
We'd be living together.
:41:52
What about Fred?
:41:54
He's moving out.
