We shouId be gratefuI","
at the very Ieast-
:54:12
NAVAL BARRACKS IN NATAL","
NOVEMBER 23RD"," 1 935
:54:26
Have you discovered who
ordered the revoIt in NataI?
:54:29
It seems it was spontaneous-
:54:32
The press cIaim Prestes
is in Moscow-
:54:38
But I'm not fooIed-
:54:41
He's here-
:54:45
Are you sure this safe
is secure?
:54:48
There's a Iot of money in it---
:54:51
not to mention documents
which couId incriminate us-
:54:55
Anyone who opens this safe
wiII be bIown up-
:54:58
Not a singIe piece of
paper wiII be Ieft intact-
:55:08
"We cannot walt any longer"-
:55:11
Either we bring the revoIt to Rio","
or we abandon our peopIe in NataI-
:55:14
It couId be a trap
set up by Vargas-
:55:16
But the peopIe of Recife
aIready support us!
:55:19
Moscow wants to know
our decision-
:55:21
We are not ready to take
the revoIt nationwide-
:55:24
We're not? If I remember","
you said in Moscow---
:55:27
you couId organize
strikes and raIIies-
:55:29
The report said the Communist
Party had infiItrated the army-
:55:32
So it had! Many of the barracks
are ready for insurrection!
:55:36
And wiII the army support
the revoIution?
:55:39
Many of my former feIIow
officers stiII support me-
:55:42
Without the peopIe's support","
victory is impossibIe-
:55:45
The Party wiII caII for
a generaI strike-
:55:47
If we don't act"," the government
wiII certainIy crack down hard-
:55:51
It wiII crush the uprising
in NataI"," and arrest---
:55:53
the more active miIitants
across the country-
:55:55
Another chance Iike this won't come
up in years- Maybe ever again-
:55:59
OIga"," I'm against it!
AII this onIy exists on paper!
