[Major Bowes]

Major thank you, Dan. And good evening friends. A new setting, a different hour, another night. But here is the same wheel of fortune. Starting off on a merry spin. Around, around she goes and where she stops nobody knows. Now first we have Joe Smith. Joe Smith, singer and tap dancer from the Bronx. You're coughing very well this evening, Joe. And how old are you?

[Joe Smith]

46 years old. I weigh 210 pounds and stand 5 foot 3 in my stocking feet.

[Major Bowes]

Well, that's the first important, isn't it? What's your work?

[Joe Smith]

I'm a taxi driver and I drive one of those.

[Major Bowes]

Wait, wait a minute.

[Joe Smith]

Now, as I was, as I was going to say, I drive one of those open air Desota cabs.

[Major Bowes]

The kind where the roof slides back and it gives you practically an open car.

[Joe Smith]

Sure, and this will slay you.

[Major Bowes]

Is that a threat?

[Joe Smith]

No. My wife told me to tell you if I tell you this, it will go over big.

[Major Bowes]

Well, all right, go ahead and tell.

[Joe Smith]

I was answering a call and a lady hails me. So I pulls over and I says, lady, I am answering a call. And she said, I don't care. I want your cab. So then I said to her, well, it's very mighty nice of you, lady, but there are other cabs. But she says, no, I want your cab.

[Major Bowes]

Well, naturally she wanted a nice, easy riding cab. Of course.

[Joe Smith]

Yes, but that ain't all. Listen, I said to her, I says, it's very flattering, but there are other cabs watching. Why won't one of them do?

[Major Bowes]

Yes, go on now. Why don't you say, come to?

[Joe Smith]

And she said to me, well, I am moving and I think I have a tree that is six foot tall. And if I take your taxicab, I can put it on my lap and let it stick out of the top.

[Major Bowes]

All right. What are you going to sing again?

[Joe Smith]

I'm going to sing as a sin to tell a lie in a flat.

[Major Bowes]

Well, I ain't it.

[Joe Smith]

Be sure it's true when you say.

[Major Bowes]

I love you It's a sin to tell a lie so be sure it's true when you say I love you.

[Joe Smith]

It's a sin to tell.

[Major Bowes]

A love Long it. All right, all right. That's Joe Smith of New York, Taxi driver. The road is smooth and wide. I our motor is quiet and sure. We pull our Chrysler to the curb and gently press the brake. We are in Detroit, where America's motorcade begins. Detroit has had an unimpeded rapid rise. Its early history is vibrant with adventure, its future glowing with expectancy and assurance. And why not? Three flags have flown over this city. French, English and American. 4,000 population in 1832. A century later, nearly a million and three quarters. The principal gateway to our friendly northern neighbor, Canada. Detroit has 1093 different kinds of industries. Leading, of course, is automobile manufacturing. 75% of the cars in America are made here. And 94% are built within a radius of 75 miles. Appurtenances for motor vehicles. Printing, publishing, meat packing. More riverborne traffic passes this city than any other in the world. During the season, a steamship glides by every three minutes from this port. Motor cars are carried to all parts of the globe so that a universe may ride in comfort, speed and safety. Detroit headlines as world leader in Wyeth spring production, vacuum cleaners, marine engines, hydraulic hoists, air conditioning machines, stove manufacturing. But all week work and no play would make Detroit a dull place. So she's provided her people with clubs and schools, with theaters and parks. She has built her tree lined avenues wide and she keeps them spick and span. I've made many visits to Detroit and I know the hospitality and graciousness of her people. A message from Governor Fitzgerald truly states your salute to the City of Detroit is also a tribute to the true spirit of America. In her infancy, Detroit rose from the ashes to become America.

I knew there was a man from Chicago in the house somewhere. In recent years. I like Chicago, too. The accord between employee and employer in great corporations has continuously grown. In our audience tonight is the president of the largest public utility corporation in the world. A man of vast ability and a heart overflowing with the milk of human kindness. A man who is always deeply concerned with the welfare of his army of employees. No detail in the life of the humblest one is outside the ken of his deep interest. He's a close friend of mine. So close indeed that I dare to take him unawares, as I'm now doing. He's the president of the Consolidated Edison Company of New York. His name is Frank W. Smith. Stand up here, Frank. Get up. Stand up. Come on. You go over to that. You go over to that microphone that. Frank, I don't. I know how old you are, so I won't have to ask you that. But are you married? Are you nervous or just sad about it? Yes. All right. I'll make my piece with mail. Don't you worry too much. Oh, boy. You'll go together for this. I'll get it right. Frank, how old were you when you went to work for Consolidated? Well, Major, that's serious. I'll do more sending for you. I even Answer that. I was 13 years old. 13 years old when he went to work. And that's an object lesson to the youngsters of the land and Horatio Alger story if ever there was one. Have you studied music? No. You're honest prank. Well now, before I answer that Major, I want to say something very serious to you. First I want to congratulate you on this, your premier broadcast. I want to wish you all the great success in the world which you really deserve. And finally I want to say. Finally I want to say that you're doing a great service for the young people in our country, opening the door of opportunity to them that they may never have had open before. And I greatly appreciate what you're doing for us. Well, Frank? Not sir. Thanks a lot for that. But what I must know is have you ever taken music lessons? No. Have you ever answered? I decline to answer on the ground that it might incriminate you. Huh. Well, Frank Smith, you know very well that you're a wonderful harmonica playing and last week. No, this is the truth. It's got to come out sometime. Last week when I had a chance for a birdie on your own golf course, you pulled out a harmonica and played Listen to the Mockingbird and I miss it. And I missed a three foot. What now come on into the microphone. Don't look at me. I can't stand it. Help it. I help it. How long has it been since you'd played a harmonica? Well, that's the first time I played it since I was 14 or 15 years old. And I want to say the swipe my harmonica right there at night. Yes, I did. Here it is. It's a perfectly good two bit harmonica. Now you can say listen to the mockingbird. Well, that's it all right. Well be it on your own head, Major. Haven't helped the listener. Just get the gun ready. I've got more of a cushion on my head than you have. I can take it. Listen to the mockingbird.

[Hilda Morse]

Sam.

[Major Bowes]

I'm going to keep the harmonica. Well, Brett. Well, Frank, I compliment you. A game. I don't think I could have gone through it. But you did. I'm sure you'll forgive me, and so will Nell too for the gorgeous flowers that so lavishly decorate this radio theater. I'm deeply indebted. The display of gladiolus beggars description. I've never seen so such beautiful ones and so many of them. My thanks to the grower Carson Stewart of Sharon, Pennsylvania who brought them here. He's a loyal listener. Among them are 2,000 of the prize winning Major Blows Diolas named for me last year. The basket of dahlias up on the piano comes from the American Dahlia Society of Michigan whose national show opens tomorrow in the convention hall. Detroit mayor Frank Cousins sends his greetings and we reciprocate with congratulations to him for his fine work as honorary president of the Boys Club in Detroit. And greetings and thanks to the Detroit Times and the News and the Free Press. From the sister cities of Detroit come congratulatory messages. Mayor Campbell of Ann Arbor, Mayor Harvey of Point Huron where there's a branch plant of the the Chrysler Corporation from Saginaw to Dearborn. And from Mayor Burrell of Ypsilanti. And from Mount Clemens, the home of Selfridge Field, a part of our national defense. A month from today the great Mitchell Trophy race and Air Corps maneuvers will be held at Selfridge Field. And also one from Lansing, Michigan's capital. Now the first telephone bulletin is due, but sadly is just. Here it is. I just hold out my hand and everything, automobiles and everything drop right into it. Joe Smith, the taxi dancer has received 1175 telephone calls already. Robert Howe from Detroit. Oh, Detroit's very Busy on the telephone 3475. And Hilda Morse, the little 17 year old girl, 807. We'll hear more a little bit later. And I have a telephone telegram here. Business is picking up. Telegram from Rex Cole ordering three famous cars. Thanks to Rex. Anybody else interested? I shall be at home to messenger boys all evening. George Marshall. George Marshall, negro boy, baritone from Wilkes Barre, Pennsylvania. And George, what is your word? I do. I've done most hard labor, major. I worked in the anthracite coal mines in Pennsylvania. And I was also water boy for a construction company. And while in Rocky Mount, North Carolina I worked in the cotton fields and the tobacco fields. And what's your ambition, John? I want to be a minister and be the gospel fine singing voice to your great advantage. What's the song? Land of Degradation. All night in a land of a degradation Lo the. All right, all right. George Marshall. George Marshall from Wilkes Barrow. About a year ago Clyde Barry, another negro boy, appeared on this program without friends and without funds and he sang that very same song. Today Clyde Barry is an important sustaining artist on the Columbia network very network. This is a memorable and inspiring night. And that's a night for me. My first program for the Chrysler Corporation. My greatest satisfaction perhaps lies in the fact that as a result of an intensive study I feel that every person whom I might persuade to investigate any One of our famous four cars will do so to his or her decided benefit.

[Chrysler Announcer]

Major, may I present a few quick facts?

[Major Bowes]

Go right along, darling.

[Chrysler Announcer]
