Week-End in Havana Page #4

- Oh, nice, isn't it? I have the same view from my window.

And the bedroom!

- How do you like it?

- Very nice.

Even our furniture display on the ninth floor

was never like this.

It's the, uh, presidential suite,

you know.

Well, the whole cabinet

could use the bathtub.

[ Sighs ]

They ought to have lifeguards.

During the off-season,

they undoubtedly use it as a dry dock.

- Simply gorgeous.

- I'm glad you're pleased, Miss Spencer.

Oh, I am. It just couldn't be nicer.

Then perhaps you wouldn't mind

signing this waiver now.

You never forget business

for a minute, do you?

Why, yes, I do. Sometimes.

Bet not for more than a minute.

Well, I am rather anxious to get this signed.

I'd like to get back to New York.

If you remember, I told you

I wouldn't sign anything...

- until after I've had that vacation.

- Why not?

How do I know I wouldn't be

thrown out of here the minute you left?

Why, that's ridiculous.

That's not the way our company does business.

Maybe not, but you can't be too careful

of these big corporations.

- I don't think they'll get away with anything with you.

- [ Chuckles ]

Well, what would you like to do first?

See the sights?

All right. But you'll have to wait

till I swim across that bathtub and back.

I'll be in the bar when you're ready.

[ Barking ]

" Sugar is the greatest industry

of the Cuban Republic...

" and a visit to its vast sugarcane fields

will afford moments of rare interest.

"Hundreds of thousands of Cubans

are concerned directly or indirectly...

"with the production or marketing

of this commodity.

"The cutting season extends from December

toJune, and the cane is cut with machetes.

"Oxen are still used to till the fields

and haul the cane to railroad cars.

" During 1940,

1,174,369 tons...

" were exported

to the United States alone.

- At Havana's door, there are"-

- Now wait a minute.

When you asked me to go sightseeing,

you really meant it, didn't you?

I thought it was a pretty drive,

but what would you rather see?

Well, I understand there are countless bars

and numberless nightclubs in Havana.

Oh, I'd planned on taking you

to one tonight.

There's a place called Midi's

that's supposed to be very nice.

Midi's? All the tourists go there.

I'll bet if I was seeing Havana

with Arnold Spreckles...

he wouldn't take me

to any second-rate nightclub.

Where do you think

Arnold Spreckles would take you?

Mmm, the Casino " Madelino. "

All right. We'll go there.

Anything that Spreckles can do...

the McCracken Steamship Company

ought to be able to do.

Think so?
