Mr. Smith Goes To Washington Page #4
In the ANTE-ROOM, Joe Paine and Jim Taylor are on their feet,
HUBERT:
(angrily)
Look here, Jim--if you and Joe are
going to gab about this appointment
*any* longer, I'm going ahead and
see those committees!
TAYLOR:
(sharply)
You'll see those committees when
we're finished!
HUBERT:
(meekly)
Yes, Jim.
Hubert retires, closing the door. Jim Taylor turns back to
Paine.
TAYLOR:
That Happy Hopper is tougher to handle
than a prima-donna.
PAINE:
--in other words, Jim--with this
Willet Creek Dam on the fire--the
man who goes to the Senate now in
Sam Foley's place can't ask any
questions or talk out of turn. We
must be absolutely sure of him.
TAYLOR:
That's why I say Miller--Horace
Miller. He jumped through hoops for
the machine before we moved him up
to the bench. He'll take orders.
PAINE:
Jim--suppose we didn't try to go
through with this Willet Creek Dam--
suppose we postpone it until the
next session of Congress--or drop it
altogether--
TAYLOR:
That'd be a crime--after all this
work--getting it buried in this
Deficiency Bill as nice as you please--
approved--all ready to roll--
PAINE:
How much does the Willet Dam mean to
you, Jim?
TAYLOR:
Joe--I've got a lot of people to
take care of in this State.
