Ladies and gentlemen, thank you so much for joining us on this session on Japan. Now we have 45 minutes, and we have three great panelists. Of course, Japan's premier surgeon, Soabe, has a bold plan, a very bold plan. It's a shock therapy for an economy that's been stagnant for 20 years and was overtaken by China in 2010 as the world's second largest abonomics, as the doctrine is known to parts from the piecemeal measures of previous leaders and, of course, focuses on these powerful political constituency. Soabe tells voters that the strong economic medicine he has pursued for more than three years will work. So we have a great panel to discuss the benefits, what more can be done, and the things that need to be stepped up. Mr. Akira Amar, Minister of Economic Revitalization and Minister for Economic and Physical Policy of Japan, thank you so much for joining us. Takishi Ninami, President and Chief Executive Officer, a member of the Board at Centauri Holdings, thank you. And, of course, Adam Pozen of the Peterson Institute. Guys, it's exciting because abonomics has been in the works for three years. Minister, would you like to start and just give us an overview on what you think has worked but what we need to accelerate? Thank you very much. In the past two years, I'd like to explain to you the outcome and the results of abonomics making the specific examples. So in a macroeconomic way, we are getting out of the depression that lasted for 15 years. What important this year is a nominal GDP growth rate was lower than real-term economic growth rate. But now, we are seeing the nominal growth rate is higher than real-term economic growth. This is the wholesome state of the economy. So specific results for Japan, we had a sex that burdens some of the Japanese economy, the high value of the yen and the very high corporate tax rate and also delay in the trade agreements and the very serious labor regulations and also maybe outrageously high levels of environmental risk. And this is a high energy cost and we have these burdens. But now, we are seeing the resolution of that about the high value of the yen. The corporate level is reflecting the Japanese fundamentals. The corporate tax reform taking five years, we are planning to reduce the corporate effective tax down to 20s and we've done it instead of how you do it. But then also, we have the trend of women. In October last year, we came to the overall agreement of taking the October last year. This is the world's largest extent of free trade agreements and the very serious labor researches about the labor dispatch controller and we are trying to put below the level of women and also the measurement in terms of the performance and also the women's compensation in labor force in two years and a half has indicated by the $50,000 we are reducing the risk and also the high level of environmental restriction or regulations. We are trying to make it really less than outrageous and high cost of energy in the liberalization of power and gas market and also we will re-shot the nuclear power plant if we can get rid of these six levels of burdens in terms of the results, regulation reform to break through the hard core regulations. One is the medical care related regulations about the regenerative medicine. Japan is the most advanced and the best in terms of the environment and some of the American regenerative medicine companies are removing their... moving their head of orders to Japan and with the cooperation of companies Teowo and Osaka University, there has been a success for the development of skeletal myoblast cell sheet using the femoral muscle and use it for the patient serious heart failure. There has been actual clinical case and in that case, the heart surge crisis only lay in the past but with this technology, the I.P.S. lab was regenerated in the end of the appropriate and the line. This is also the A.M.D. advanced macular degeneration with the transplantation of... I.P.S. has been successful in those two energies and also the energy the mass production sold about in the base of cars are moving and then the agricultural reform after 60 years and also the PPP the airport of operation right made open to outside and then in the French and Japan airport obtain the operation right of a construction airport and the Osaka airport in conjunction with all this the size of two to a year can I go on a little? There are many specific cases of... So let me talk about corporate governance there are increasing 90% of companies appointing the external directories some more than 90% and the spirit should choose some of the typical Japanese and the institution industries are improving and strengthening social activities. What about going forward? We are talking about the old industrial revolution and Japan will be in the middle of it using IoT and AI and we have the Google, Amazon, Apple, IBM, Google, Amazon, Apple, IBM, GE, Microsoft all taking part in this most specifically for instance the self-driving and leading service is possible in all of the Olympics and in three years also there will be a possibility of using drones and robots the robots to how is already introduced in nursing care facilities and hospital and also introduced in construction as well and the Komatsu production machine has to use the drone for construction site and the survey done by drones and three completion drawings and the end analysis done and advanced AI driven machine thank you minister so the minister was going there through some of the reforms that have been put in place over the last three years Mr. Inami you work in the real economy what kind of impact has it had on corporate spending how much easier is your life now as a CEO? As a matter of fact it's been easier than before and let me put the score to the economics it's still in I think working progress I would say but I like to give credit to the economics for I think I'm changing the overall economy of Japan I mean momentum of the Japanese economy from negative to positive but there are lots of things that need to be done and because we have not got out of the deflation yet completely and people have still inertia in their minds so I strongly believe that it takes at least three to five years to see the efficacies of the policies implemented already by the government so it's been I think a positive but we have to see let's say three to five years but definitely efficacies have been emerging so the prerequisite is definitely the long term and the steady government like the current one and to do so then we can get rid of deflation completely and we must build the solid economy that is resilient to the I think a negative impact of the world economy like recession of China and to enable sustainable growth we must create a domestic demand definitely domestic demand by addressing three issues further more one wages labor and three investment so I think about labor both gentlemen will touch upon definitely creating expectation of continuous wage hike is the most important thing for Japan to raise consumption that's a long term agenda for Japan I think a positive sign has been coming up but still consumption is weak so we have three points to address one is the continuous wage hike and two increase in the number of households of double income that will be created by having women to work much more I think that's underway and third this is a kind of technical decrease of insurance premium to be charged from the individual payroll that is now reaching as much as 5% of the payroll that is very important to increase disposable income so this is technical but this is very important let me touch upon and explain the continuous wage hike this is underway but the labor share of national income has dropped while we corporations are reporting record highs and profits so and most CEOs are still hesitant to invest to pay more to wages because we feel still understandably skeptical of the sustain of growth so I support the current activity of the other administration to pressure business to increase wages but in the exchange of the decrease of the tax I mean corporate tax rate to the mid 20s gradually so that's important and another thing is definitely investment opportunity I just skipped the labor but the investment opportunity in the domestic market definitely we have to work on much more effort to the deregulate I mean bedrock regulations and we have lots of opportunity which is a potential like our healthcare industry including health longevity I mean longer longevity that's a prevent medicine and as the minister mentioned IPS and nutritional products and robotics to the elderly care and maybe clean energy so those are potential areas and we may be able to definitely perhaps we can make use of the fourth industrial revolution for that database big data analysis and AI they will be playing a key role for Japan to pick up its opportunity for investments I'd like to talk more about the council meeting I can't talk I said professor I talk too much you'll have plenty of time to actually also questions to the minister you have always been a big believer that the oil price will work but actually given what's happened on the markets in the last two weeks given that we don't really know what China's policy on yuan is given that the oil price may continue to go further how difficult really will it be for epidemics to work and for deflation to stop Francine as you say after 20 years of being a critic of Japanese policies it's been my pleasure for the last two weeks I think it's either way but I think it's very important to just put in global context the structural reforms that my colleagues just mentioned adding 850,000 people women to the workforce is enormous that's enough to offset shrinkage of the workforce for three or four years that is a huge long-term change some of those women are part time but that's the way we learned from the Nordics and arrangements this is the single biggest thing that they could do and they've done it corporate governance again it's getting lost as you mentioned Francine the markets are extremely skeptical but they're not just skeptical in Japan they're skeptical everywhere and so some of the corporate reforms that my friend mentioned as well as the minister are not getting as much credit as they do but if you think about Toshiba Olympus these other famous cases they could never have directers and external forces so to me when you talk about the uphill battle for Abagnomics which is true I think the issue is what's been a huge achievement of the Abagn government and the bank of Japan frankly is that the problems besetting Japan now are the same ones besetting the US and Europe it used to be Japan had all the same problems as everybody else plus its own internal damaging problems clearly there's still more reform to be done but what you're facing in Japan now is this disengagement of the real economy from the nominal which is what we're seeing in Europe and in the US that you get growth you get full employment you still don't get inflation and the disengagement of wages from productivity which I think throughout the Davos conference people have said is the dark side of the fourth industrial revolution and so I completely support the idea of the continual wage hike in just one more sentence Olivier Blanchard the former chief economist of the IMF with us at Peterson and I co-authored an aggressive plan encouraging the government to be much more aggressive about raising wages and trying to create a 70 style price wage cycle that leading companies do give wage hikes and they pass on the price hikes as a return and you should be going for a much higher wage hike and this is not just to get out of deflation but to make explicit what I think is implicit here that's the only way you're going to stop the problem in Japan. You have to buy time by creating some nominal growth that further exceeds real growth or else it will be too big and so the final thing I would say is is where I disagree with my friend and the government they should withhold the corporate tax bill until the wages are delivered on a commitment from the corporations. They should not bring it to the diet until these very fat profitable corporations share with the workers. Minister, a reaction to maybe that last point? We have a diagonal between the business management and the government. We are asking them to increase the wages. You might wonder if Japan is a country of free market economy or not but what's important here is that we have to get out of the deflationary mindset. Why is that internal tension increases and they're not reflected on in the time of deflation when the tight financial institutions are somehow inertial institutions but financial institutions why institutions are tight they deny the same lunch. And it is fine they try to extend the money but when it's raining they do not lend. And so the financial institutions management do not need to hold someone and the business corporations also when investment is needed and then if we could do internal retention that would be the most difficult and so it is not restricted on the wages so we have to change the mindset of business management therefore government is asking them to increase the wages and the payment to the subcontractors and increase the investment that's what we are doing and working towards the management. There are clear deflationary pressures on the world impacting Japan as one of the key architects of Abinomics do you feel under pressure to step up reforms or to do them more aggressively? Well through the dialogue between the management and the government what we are doing to encourage the investment community our end research development and the management we ask the government to reform the relation to that end when that business is made and our minister would the immediate construction to implement that when it's possible so we ask them to be active investment and the management would ask the government to regulate some of the bottleneck regulations so we are continuing with this kind of dialogue which means that through such exchange of views we will have immediate it's been three days at the World Economic Forum and there's a lot of concern for saying we're going back to 2008 kind of crisis it disagrees with that but it's very clear that it puts a lot more pressure on Abinomics is there anything that you see in the real economy are you concerned that there will be a lot less capital spending because of what we're seeing around the world that people will hold back that CEO's fear even if it's unjustified and so don't spend so much I think you're right about the reform in Japan to create as I mentioned earlier domestic demand not relying on too much export from Japan and we have the potential demand like healthcare because of the aging society which is a social need and that needs lots of private investments but we feel so scared because it's run by publicly mostly and there is a huge refill and definitely we have to promote our businesses in Japan itself but as the minister mentioned still we have in Asia in the bottom of the heart so that's a chicken and egg issue the government at least or the private sectors and lead but we have to have a target at the end of the by the end of the 2018 that means the three years from now by then it's a shame for a business dealer to say but we need definitely strong initiative from of the administration much more than before that's why I mentioned the resilient economy for Japan from bad effect from the world economy so we have to expedite our structural reform sorry go ahead is very heartening always to hear a business leader from Japan like Tadeshi talk about domestic demand in a serious way and what the last several years have proven for Japan and for Germany and for a whole bunch of places it's not just the Americans whine about trade deficits it really is for your own stability and security a good thing to have a domestic base of demand and again what I want to emphasize is and this is a very Davos thing but I think it's right the kinds of things that Tadeshi is talking about in terms of private sector investment in healthcare dealing with aging these are common challenges across the rich world and we have to think now in addition what we can do at a global level to free up long term investment infrastructure investment we had a very good session off the record yesterday including some Japanese leaders on how things at the global level are interfering with appetite for infrastructure investment for major investment but I also going back to something that minister Mari was key in I also think even if we're worried about domestic reform the trade deal the Trans-Pacific Partnership is huge it's had a huge effect symbolically and in money terms on agriculture in Japan if and when the US Congress passes it which they will it's just a question of when every Japanese family is going to get a tax cut effectively because the cost of food is going to go down and so always remember this is what I try to tell people in the US a trade deal really isn't about opening markets it's about transforming the economies that are part of the deal Adam a quick question also on monetary policy Governor Crowe came on Bloomberg TV for half an hour yesterday he spoke in a panel this morning and of course he says look he's not seeing the effect of worldwide deflationary pressures yet we're expecting the BOJ to act next week but he's suggesting look he has more firepower and he's ready to do almost whatever it takes does he have one shot this is what the markets believe right that he has one shot to get it right or again he fired multiple shots no I think the markets are in general at the moment getting it wrong and with respect to the Bank of Japan I think they're definitely getting it wrong I talk with Governor Crowe I'm a big fan I think it would be probably a mistake to do more right now because it's not going to have an immediate effect if it's a global panic and a global deflationary pressure from energy prices and a global problem doing a little more QE in Japan is not going to make that much difference it's not if the yen were to go skyrocketing that's different Mr. Murray's right the Abenauts came in with a yen that was vastly overvalued it's not now and so it's not a scam it's just you don't want to do something that you make a big deal out of the markets make a big deal out of and two months later you find there isn't been much effect I think the central banks would be wise to just ride out this panic and wait Minister how do you view the markets the topic centered a bear market as a CEO as a policy maker as a minister do you need to ignore the market and understand exactly the angst that they have and the biggest but who recently most of the major the economies have hit the ceiling and probably it is now the time the development economies to be a driving force and a building they find and the G7 summit will be held in Japan the very scenic place of the G7 up the G7 and the Prime Minister will be in the chair and there we can clearly declare that the development countries will be a driving force or the economy we should send up this clear message and I'm sure Prime Minister Abe has and investors are concerned about the sales tax increase for the second time what are your thoughts the law is in place so second increase should be but when the first round of consumption tax increase there has been a downward pressure on the consumption there has been a linear impact therefore whether to increase again the government is trying to create a situation so that if we could we should extend two or three years more to implement the 3% increase of the consumption tax because definitely consumption tax affected I mean 3% increase of the two years ago affected economy a lot we have to analyze carefully but having said that I would like to support the increase because we have to show the world that our economy is fine to be able to increase 2% but the reality is so hard so we have to pump up the economy stimulate the economy as soon as possible because the world economy is so weak and weaker than we expected so again there is no demand because of the aging population which needs more healthcare so that means private health care services should be provided so that we are almost at bay to make movements toward healthcare those areas which we have been talking about for many years but this is the last chance but a good thing for Japan because we have to make a move another factor we are in the situation of acute labor shortage this is quite rare among developed countries like Japan and the US almost everybody is hired and we have to increase the labor one women, senior citizens third, I like to address foreign workers now we have to be serious about it we have the foreign training system for as a foreign aid but we can alter the laws to be able to extend their state in Japan from the current three years to five for example that's underway as a matter of fact and after five years they can be eligible to apply to the permanent residence like US green cards so this kind of new thing to be impactful to solve the issues that kind of things are needed before increase of two percent of consumption to provide positive momentum to the market and to the people last year I had the pleasure to be on the Japan panel as well and I said that for the future of Japan it had to get over being either racist or sexist that is it had to either allow immigration foreign workers because no they don't like the word immigration to women and I thought I wouldn't be invited back and I think it's a sign of how far things have come that Takeshi is saying this and I'm invited back but joking aside as important as that is I don't fully agree with the postponement of the consumption tax hike or rather you can only postpone it if you get the inflation up because the problem is the economy it has domestic savings it has its own currency but the problem is especially with an aging society you have a certain amount of government spending you need to do you have a tax base that's slightly shrinking and if you're not careful there can be a sudden jump in the interest and debt payments and what that won't destroy the Japanese economy but it will force a very rapid either tax hike or budget cut it's like I said if you're not going to do immigration you have to do women preferably both if you're not going to do the consumption tax hike then you damn well better get nominal growth much more up because that's the only way you're going to buy time and space to avoid that kind of harsh thing on the budget Minister how will you revitalize the labor force do you think womenomics will definitely work and comment on foreign workers in Japan in fact in Japan those who are willing and anxious to work there are 6.5 million of those people who really work to work and there are additional 3 million who want to work so put together 9.5 million women leaders to increase labor force and how to make it possible for them to take part in labor market is of course the most important and the women's participation in the labor market as I said increased by nearly 1 million we've increased the child care facilities and also increased provision for the maternity care leave from one house to increase by one third and so under the banner of womenomics we are trying to encourage the active participation of women and to laboration women so there are many such but there are many some such but the the the the the the the the the the the and for the nursing, and giving milk to the babies. And they're chasing after each other, and to mothers and children, and the milking the babies. And the male would never think of that, but so welcome by women. And so the male management should be aware of growing the business and the economy by introducing women's viewpoints. Can you give us a sense of the workforce that you're looking for, how difficult it is and maybe answer some of the points that the minister was making. What are you seeing in the real economy and in your business? In the service sectors, definitely women are leading the business itself as well as the consumption because the best and largest customers are female, customers definitely, and we have to stay with those people. I mean women, I mean for the decision-making especially in the service sectors. But having said that, can business leaders promote them all of a sudden to the senior positions? I don't think so. What we can do is to increase population in the organization at first. So for example, increase of recruits, 52% to 60%, I mean 51% to 65%, should be women to increase population in one organization. That's the first step. And that's what we business are now working on. And then over 10 years, we will see good managers, especially service sectors like healthcare, retail businesses, we will see good managers because they know customers more than us. And child care, we need good managers. And over years, we will see good managers. So that means, you know, necessity from the business promotes naturally female workers to be management. But over more than five, maybe six years, population in the organization is a key thing for us to promote. So you think we will be able to see whether womenomics works in five years from now? Yes, that's right. It's in underway definitely by strong leadership of both business and the government. But all of a sudden, can we put the senior physician? Well, they should have more experience.  Is that because of women? It's not really good. Should have experience, should have knowledge, should have capability. So we have to increase the population in the organization, just like a company. Let me give a bit of a global perspective on this issue. The Peterson Institute, we're about to issue a study. It'll come out first week of February. We've done a snapshot of the entire corporate world around the world in 2014. We have 21,000 companies in our data set, 91 countries. And it speaks to this issue. And I'll just be very brief. First thing is, Japan, Korea, East Asia in general does far underperform in terms of representation to women. I know the minister, I know Takeshi, you're not denying that. But it just, it stands out that if you control for income, what industries they're in, all these things, Japan and Korea are way behind. Second, and this partially supports what Takeshi was saying, we find that there is huge variation across countries, across businesses in profitability associated with how many women you have in management. So if you have a lot of women in management in general, in C-suites, you do get higher profitability, controlling for a whole host of factors. However, it's not connected with boards. So this sort of supports, I don't want to fully endorse what Takeshi was saying, but it probably supports Takeshi's point. Our interpretation of the data is that forcing women onto boards or encouraging women on the board certainly does no harm. We don't see any evidence that it's bad for profitability. But it doesn't have the effect. What you want to see is a pipeline and the kinds of things the minister was talking about, an environment that's a good working world for women. So you have lots of women there and they make their way through and they're part of the leadership. And that has a clear effect on profitability. And so without getting into issues of, it's a deferment of action, do they need experience, there is strong evidence that it's got to be about not just putting women at the top, it's got to be about getting women supported to be senior workers. And in Japan in particular, but throughout the Western world, by Western I mean Japan market oriented rich world, it's about paternity leave as well as maternity leave. It's about flexible for women in child bearing age. It's about getting women back into management if they come out for a bit. These are the policies that matter. Corporations are having advancing the policies to give the maternity leave and such as the childcare benefits by giving some subsidies. I think I want to mention that we'd like to have more increase in the number of childcare facilities, but it's run mostly publicly. We need to bring in private experience and the knowledge and the managers. And most managers can be female. So we have to develop a new system in society to support women to work. That is still behind. Though the economic supports a lot, we need more. So if we have more women to work, then more facilities needed. So it's chicken and egg. So I think it's advancing, but we need more childcare. But that should be run by private initiative, I mean public initiative, I mean private initiative. Minister, we're at the beginning of 2016. The IMF has said again that more reforms need to be put in place for economics to work. What is the one or maybe two key reforms that you will work on in the next 12 months to either implement more quickly or to accelerate the kind of engine of these reforms? Every year, we carry out the monitoring and the progress control of the reform. In other words, we set out a plan of progress which we have to achieve in coming one year, having the yardstick and the measure that and control that. And towards the Tokyo Olympics in 2020, we would like to do the specific shows and for instance, at the time of 2020, there will be self-driven vehicles managing the movement of the people. And also within three years, there will be parcel delivery realized by drones. So drones will deliver the parcels. We can start that in three years. And also, Hydrogen Society, we will realize the Hydrogen Society in Japan ahead of others by 2020. So these are specific examples we presented and having that as a target and goal. What is in 30 seconds, the one reform that you need to be seeing in the next 12 months? Living mobility. A lot of talent tends to stay in big corporations. And we need talent to the ventures and the small enterprises. But there is a huge pay gap. So that should become, I mean, subsidized by for the time being, let's say from the government, let's say three years from the special account, which has already 60 billion dollars without no destination. Definitely we have to mobilize the talent to revitalize the economy. So I would not say we can easily fire people. I do not support, but we have to change the laws to create the mobility of labor. So that's the challenge for the government. But it's a prerequisite to revitalize the economy. Adam, in terms of timeline, in two years will we know if this policy has worked? Well, we will know already that the policy has worked, as the minister said, as Takeshi said, and as Governor Kuroda said, the real economy in Japan is actually cycling up right. What we won't know for another two years is whether this is sufficient to make Japan resilient to external shocks, to make Japan back in control of its fiscal destiny, to make Japan a solid ongoing partner in Asia, which was always Prime Minister Abe's motivation. I am hopeful it will. But you said one line, one line is you need multi-year wage increases in indexing if necessary. Minister, you've also had some negative press, some negative comments on the press. When will you respond to what's been said? I'm talking about my personal case and my negative press. There has been a weekly magazine before involving myself in my secretary, and that caused some emotions. I wanted to come to the board with a brighter set of mind, and I'm surrounded by a camera in a different notion. And we are conducting a survey going on, so in the course of next week, I should be in a position to give a press coverage. At the moment, you don't expect it to impact your willingness to do reform or have an omics in any way? The Abe Cabinet. And one of the important ministers of the Abe Cabinet, I'm sorry that I'm causing a big trouble for Prime Ministers, but I feel this is not the place to talk about my personal title. But rather, about my return, I will take based on the solid survey and I will make myself and make my position. Minister and gentlemen, thank you so much for a great panel.


The Equitable Life Insurance Society presents This Is Your FBI This Is Your FBI, the official broadcast, a chapter from the files of the Federal Bureau of Investigation presented transcribed as a public service by the Equitable Life Insurance Society of the United States and the Equitable Society representative in your community Right now in the offices of many representatives of the Equitable Life Insurance Society, lights are still burning. For until a moment ago, equitable men had been making phone calls contacting men and women who look as if they are apt to be far more successful than the average person. Make a point to listen to the middle commercial on This Is Your FBI tonight, Equitable Men Earth. It tells about the equitable society's plan for men and women on the way up. In about 14 minutes, you'll hear full details on this special plan for every man who believes in himself believes he will succeed. Nice FBI file, but fiery fugitive. Recently, a tornado tore through some of our southern states. Tore through villages and cities that lay in its path and caused the death of approximately 50 people. Newspapers in every section of the country featured stories about the tornado on their front pages and almost every headline gave the latest count on the number whose lives had been stuffed out. The Federal Bureau of Investigation does not take issue with the fact that the news may headline for it is well aware that the loss of those 50 people has greatly affected several communities. However, few headlines emblazoned the fact that almost that many lives are lost in the United States every day of every week at the hands of American criminals. According to the latest figures, there were almost a thousand murders pitted in this country every month during the past year nor have these last 12 months in a period when killers went wild. For each year, the number of deaths resulting from criminal actions can choose to hold at a rather steady level, at a disgracefully high level. Your FBI brings this to your attention because there is something new that speaking citizens can do about the situation. Put more uniform policing on the streets of your city, pay them a living wage, and the number of crimes will be materially fewer. Failure. And they may increase. And if that happens, you can be sure of only one thing. No one can tell how far the crime wave will go or where it will stop. While it is above the freight train, it is slowly finding the mountain range. A shadowy dressed man stands at the door of one of the bus cars of this lane. He calls out for attention. Hey, Brownie! Yeah? Come here. Come on, we're getting off. What for? Nothing here. Look down the bank. See them crimes? Yeah. That's a jungle. And it's cold. Come on. You okay, kid? Yeah, yeah. Now let's head down the bank. I wish we could hide the car. Ah, that's so good. I don't like riding freaks. That's the best way to travel when you're hot, kid. It's got some peggy inside. There's a path that's peggy. I'm real hungry. We'll bump some, bump some fire sticks. Okay, you two. Come on down here.  Come on. Get down here. Come on. I got two more up here, Charlie. Here we go. Do you want to come to the bank? No. Okay. All right. Keep two. Get moving. Get down that line. Hey, look. What's it all about? You'll find out. Just do what you're told. We need two more here for a bus stop. Right with you. Okay. Get on down the hill into the bus. Yes, Taylor. Have a seat. Thank you. I just got a call from police headquarters. Two hoodlums we've been looking for in town. The company's at the file. It's out of text, though. You'd better take over. Now, at the same time, I'll get it back down. Two months ago, an IO came in on two men named Bill Medford and Chief Brown, Alias Brown. What do they want us to do? In First Nation. When did you get here? I don't know. Well, they didn't get much in any store. Maybe $15 or $20 at the most. The drop keepers who didn't pay would be enough. All store owners here were alerted to ask for credentials with any federal inspection presented in town. Well, this morning, Medford and Brown ran into a grocery store over on the west side. The woman remembered our warnings. When did you get here? I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.

Now do that and notify me when you get it. Alright, you'll find seats in the back of the bus. Get moving. Okay, okay. You can roll now. Alright. This is a company. Yeah. Why not what this is all about? Hey Pop. Hey. What is it, boy? Look, what is this deal? Hmm? Why'd the cops load us on this bus? Where we going? Oh, oh. Up to Mount Winnick. What's Mount Winnick? Nice, yeah. Very noble and majestic mountain. Have to be prepared for destruction by fire. Oh, that's fine. What you got to do with us? Well, we're going to have to put the fire out. You mean this ain't a pinch? Oh, not at all. Well, let's get off this. Wait, wait, wait. I don't think they'd be in favor of that boy. Okay. They've got a right to pick up anybody in emergency. They've been moving up all the way. Come on, Pop, hold it. Good Lord.  They used a couple thousand men.  Oh, every year. You're getting so close to it. You almost got so happy. Well, shouldn't it be? Yeah. Getting a chance to earn enough to fire that boy away? You mean you can pay for this one? Yes, sir. Then you can check out Uncle Sam's They dropped me a gate. I've got to report I'm missing Brown. Yes, what is it? Well, the railroad didn't find a single dead end on that freight. But I learned that the train made one stop at a place called Williams. Oh, I didn't, man. I just posted it to the police. They told me about getting a request for help from the Ranger Station out of the park. What kind of help? There's a fire that's out of control upon my running. Oh, I see.  Well, then there's a good chance that Matt's putting Brown or in that roundabout. That's what I guess. Let me try to get the park service on the phone. We've got no case here to go in. You can fly up there tonight. Hey, Ed. That means that, boys. Again? Get on the bus.  I can get off your line. You don't get used to it. After a couple of weeks, you'll learn how to sleep. I don't get used to it.  No, he's playing. Come on, boys. Come on. Let's get in line. Come on. What's this for, Bob? Oh, everything. Oh, spell it out. Yeah. Go equipment. Get your assignment. That kind of stuff. What are we supposed to sleep? Well, right over there. That's a little freaky. That's close to the fire? Oh, right. At least a couple of miles away. Hold it up there. Where? Soft job? Why? Sure, boy. You're telling me you like to drop the butter into the Mediterranean. Come on, man. Come on, man.

Yeah, well, by that time... I'm looking for just to range your Stan Jones. That's hereby by the wing, don't you? Aww! Thanks very much. You Stan Jones? I understand you're looking for a couple of men named Joe Medford and Pete Brown. Yeah, that's right. Are they here? No way or no. I've gone through my files and if they were brought in they registered under different names. But you think you might take a look around? Well, we've got a couple of thousand men spread over a ten mile front. You've got a better chance that you stay right here. Oh, awesome. Well, we take everybody's pictures for the payroll record. You can look them over as soon as they're developed. Well, when will I be? Oh, first one's ought to be along and say, oh, maybe ten minutes? Fine. I'll wait. Are you going with us? No. We're going in. No, no, no. They're nice people. No, no, wait a minute. We need some help. You've got to know where to hit. It's going to be all the trail. That trail? I suppose you'd tell us what trail to take to get out. You want to know where we're going. That's a good thing. Couple, boys. Couple with us would be tough. Come on. Let's say this piece of paper here. There's a hole far up here. And over here down here. And just here. That hill over here. You could straight ahead just come to the trail. Can't miss it. Maybe that's more map. Yeah. Go. No. About a half mile. Right about here. Hey, you come to walk in the trail. See, you take the one to the left. It winds up this way. It's here. Couple to the top of the mountain. How long will it take? Yeah. What time is it now? I don't know about that. Oh. You get to something for dawn. See, it's beautiful up there. Never saw such a view. Yeah. We ain't interested in view. What happens to you? Well, you look down here. You look for a lake down on the other side. And you brought it to your head right toward it. You get it. Just before you get there, you find something to railroad tracks there. You don't go there in the morning. Yeah. Well, here you are. Yeah. Well, you'll have to get some sleep tonight. Yeah. Sure. You'll like this. Just a moment. This exciting file which shows how your FBI helps protect the security of America. Now let's turn from present security to future hope. What's in store for America in the 1950s? What do economists say? On the whole, it looks as if we are destined to enjoy the greatest peacetime prosperity in our country's history. By 1960, our annual national income will probably rise to $275 billion, $65 billion higher than it is today. Before they come to an end, the 1950s may well be known as the fortunate 50s. For times like that, times when alert-minded men and women find and make opportunities to forge ahead in their business or professional careers, the equitable life insurance society has created a special long-range life insurance plan. It is known as the equitable plan for men and women on the way up. Consider it's three important advantages. First, as your salary goes up, your insurance can keep pace with it. When you get that better job or that big promotion comes your way, you can adjust your insurance to measure up to your increased income. Secondly, while you're waiting, your wife and children have the life insurance protection they need. This means that you have the peace of mind, the freedom from worry about your family that's essential to a man who wants to concentrate on getting ahead. Third advantage, the equitable plan is flexible at all times. It can expand or contract as you see fit and offers you many desirable options which your equitable society representative will be glad to explain to you. So why not get in touch with him right away? Fold him and ask for full details on the equitable plan for people on the way up or send a postcard care of this station to the Equitable Society. That's E-Q-U-I-T-A-B-L-E. The Equitable Life Assurance Society of the United States. And now back to the FBI file. The Fiery Fugitive. The life's case illustrates a point which is applicable to many criminals. Once they have finished using someone, their impulse is to destroy that other person. Gratitude is a word in the dictionary so far as the hardened lawbreaker is concerned. A word which to him is like decency, honesty, courage, or friendship. In his peculiar deformed mind, those words have no meaning. The only word the confirmed criminal knows that suggests a respectable emotion is mercy. And to the criminal, mercy is a one-way street. He expects that when he is apprehended, a soft-hearted judge or jury will apply it to him. If some of you feel that such a description is unnecessarily harsh, it is ample proof that your acquaintance with our criminal population in this country has been slighted, has been, in fact, not existed. The mind of the criminal is something apart. It does not resemble that of a law-abiding citizen, nor does it function in the same way. Of the millions of criminals now at large in the United States, it is safe to say that no two are exactly alike. However, it is even safer to say that all of them have one thing in common, one unwritten mother under which each of them are buried. A mother which adds to simple questions are six-word question readings. Can I get away with it? Can I say if the I-file continues that the district range is over? See you later, pictures. Ah, no, Stan. Well, here's another patch of this one. Oh, he's an old whinoe. He's been up here on fire the couple of times. Oh, hey, Stan, this is Joe. Let's see the back of that picture. You get registered under a fake name. Two pounds, picture ought to be in the same point somewhere. According to these numbers, the metric's over on the west slope. Yeah, here's Brian's picture. Yeah, let's see that one. Uh-huh, yep. They're both in the same crow. Is there any trouble finding them? Let's see, it's a quarter past four now. Nope, their ship doesn't go on for two hours. They're probably not awake yet. Oh, what are they for? New Lookout Tower of Statenness. District Ranger Jones digging. Yeah, so. Get him over to first aid. Joe Medford and Pete Brown. Oh, where are they now? Okay, thanks. Getting pretty light. Yeah. One of them near the top. The old guy said we'd get it done. Done? I know done. We may have trouble seeing that lake. Smoke is pretty heavy. Hey, what? This stuff we're walking on, this moss. Feels wet. Let's dig this stuff away. There's nothing under it. Nothing but dirt. Come on, kid. Let's keep climbing. I'm imagining this. Is this smoke getting thicker? It's thicker. I hope it's not too tough on the horses. They can stand it better than us. Nothing worries me more than smoke. Oh, what's that? The wind. It could be shifting. If it does, we're into trouble. Fire might jump the valley right under this hill. Maybe it'd rather turn around. Hold it, hold it. What is it? What about it? They're being prepared by something. Maybe Medford and Brown? Let me see that. Soft southeast on my compass. Yeah, mine too. Come on, Jim. Let's take a look. I'm feeling we're off the trail. But it's still clear, Jim. Little bush with the dust. Yeah, I know. What do we have to face on this with this smoke? What about the map? That tells us no good. Think we should turn back? What, we can get a map? We could make out we got lost. Try it again tomorrow, maybe. How are you forgetting, kid? We can tap that old guy out. Well, what's the water? We need a lake. Let's go by the railroad tracks. Come on. Trail again, Jim. Let's get off and look around. All right. Woo-hoo. Had wind shifted, all right. Stan, you want to turn back? Yeah, we might have to soon.  All right. Stan, where are the other groups by now? Well, we're working the gridiron pattern. Where are the south side of it? All of us are working towards the center. All right, Jim. What do you got? Look at that moss there. It's been all clawed up. Someone thought it was water underneath. Was that your boy? Yep, I do.  Hey, Stan. What are you doing out here this week? I'm not sure. What do you see? Something moved up there on that opposite slope. Yeah. Yeah, there they are. Here. What can I line up with? Straight up past that big rock. The one on the white face there. Yeah. Yeah, I see them. Jim, they're headed right up into the fire. Can we cut them off? I don't know, but let's try. What's going on with this? Come on, stay with it. If we don't get water soon, I'll... Wait, wait. Yo, it's all around. I know. What do we do? Yeah, it's there. All of them is arranged. You hear that, Jim? Yeah. Yeah, come on. Hey, yeah. Hey, make it tip here. All right, Jim, come on. Follow us down here. There's a burn down there. Come on. This is going to be up up close, Jim. Look at that tree. A one on the right. Mm-hmm. Howdy, Jim. How about a little water? Yeah. Where am I? You're back at cap. There's been a big blank someplace. What happened? Your head made contact with a rock. Oh, this was after we got past that falling tree. That's right. Then we'll get that burned out patch while you trip. What about your two prisoners? They're in the local jail right now. And your job is over. Man, I just start by here to thank you for all you've done.  Joe Medford and Pete Brown were tried in federal court and convicted of violating the statute which forbids impersonation of federal officers. Each was sentenced to a term of 15 years. The forest fire in tonight's case ultimately was extinguished, but only at a tremendous cost. The park serviced as a remarkable job fighting these fires and the bravery exhibited in this evening's dramatization by District Ranger Jones was no exception to their general conduct or courage is a vital ingredient in putting out this type of fire. Each year similar places take many lives and destroy thousands upon thousands of acres of property. Those losses are tragic. Truly tragic because they can so easily be avoided. Almost every big fire is started through the abject carelessness of a well-meaning but unthinking person. Many of you now listening to this program are planning spring or summer vacation trips, journeys which may find you traveling through one of this nation's great forests. If you are making any such plans, please remember a few simple rules. The most important are, first, please put out your cigarettes before throwing them away. And second, please extinguish campfires after they have served their purpose. Remember too that one moment's carelessness on your part might easily start a fire that would cost a hundred lives. And of that hundred, one might be your own. In just a moment, we will tell you about next week's exciting FBI fire. Now one last word on the equitable society's plan for men and women on the way up. It's a plan for the man who knows that the day will come when his friends will say to him, Hey, Jim, I just heard about your new job. Great going, boy. Congratulations. If you are that kind of man, then the sooner you get in touch with an equitable society representative, the better. Ask him for full information on the Equitable Society's life insurance plan for men and women on the way up. Or send a postcard care of this station to the Equitable Life Insurance Society. Next week we will dramatize another case from the files of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, a dramatic expose of the activities of two expert swindlers. Its subject, the marriage racket. Its title, The Honeymoon Homicide. The incidents used in tonight's equitable life insurance society's broadcast are adapted from the files of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. However, all names used are fictitious. And any similarity thereof to the names of persons living or dead is accidental. Tonight the music was composed and conducted by Frederick Steiner. The author was Jerry D. Lewis. Your narrator was William Woodson and special agent Taylor was played by Stacey Harris. Others in the cast were Anthony Barrack, Walter Burke, Sam Edwards, Ed Gargan, Bill Johnstone, Stan Jones and Rowan Withers. This is your FBI is a very divine production. This is Larry Keating speaking for the Equitable Life Insurance Society of the United States and the Equitable Society's representative in your community. And inviting you to tune in again next week at the same time when the Equitable Life Insurance Society will bring you another thrilling transcribed story from the files of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. The Honeymoon Homicides on this is your FBI. The adventures of Ozzy and Harriet, fun for the whole family, follows immediately over most of these ABC stations. Stay tuned. This is ABC, the American Broadcasting Company.


So, before I get into what a man needs to be able to chase you in a relationship, what a man really needs to have before he can chase you in a relationship, I want to read something that I prepared for you and I'd like to dive into this for a moment. So, give me a second to read this out loud for everyone. Most dating advice is based on early attraction methods without any regard for commitment. I'm going to repeat that. Most dating advice is based on early attraction methods without any regard to commitment.  Relationships have far more moving parts. Monogamy, commitment, trust and loyalty. Let me read that one more time. Relationships have far more moving parts. Monogamy, commitment, trust and loyalty. This is provided that you want a monogamous relationship. So why am I bringing this up? Because all too often I see so much dating rhetoric out there, not advice for men and advice for women in particular centered around the following. When I say advice, there's talk shows and YouTube videos out there.  And the lower a woman's market value, her sexual market value, the less opportunity she's going to get any man. And the real narrative is telling women that they are basically wrong for wanting what they want because they're overselling themselves. Now there might be some truth to that. I'm not here to judge that. What I'm also seeing is a lot of advice for men based on attraction, the Andrew Tates of the world, if you will, that are in my opinion quite misogynistic and quite demeaning to women because it's all based on early attraction methods. Now for the men, he's selling the idea, be your best self, make lots of money, but treat women as second class citizens because that's what they're are. That's kind of what he's selling. In fact, recently my girlfriend and I have been watching the show on Apple TV call for all mankind. And it starts with the mid 60s astronaut program in NASA. And why I'm bringing this up is it's kind of interesting and whether this is true or not, a lot of the astronauts were players. In other words, these are, excuse me, they were married men cheating on their wives habitually and the wives had to accept it as part of their role of being an astronaut's wife. And quite frankly, I think back in the 60s, a lot of women experienced this because they didn't have very many options to take care of themselves. And they were in these prestigious relationships. Well, times have certainly changed where a woman isn't necessarily dependent upon a man for her survival. And she has every right to be picky on the men she chooses.  You weren't married to, and this is one of the reasons why back then for the most part, not always the case, if two people wanted to have sex together, they got married. There was an ultimate commitment. Well, now because of birth control, men don't have to make that ultimate commitment. And yet I believe women's standards should be just as high as to who they choose to invest their heart in, not their body anymore, their heart in. And why I'm bringing this up is choosing people who are more emotionally mature, more emotionally attuned, because ultimately, as I said before, you have a choice. You want to focus on early attraction or do you want to seek a life partner where there's monogamy, commitment, trust and loyalty? And I want you to think about this. It takes about a hundred hours of face to face time just to build the first stage of trust, the first stage. And let's just assume there's 10 stages to trust. I don't know what there are, but I'm just saying it takes at least a hundred hours of face to face time to build that first stage of trust. Isn't it fascinating how humans will enter into relationship all based on physical attraction? And men oftentimes chase a woman based on lust or limerence. And if you're not familiar with limerence, I highly recommend you type in Google limerence, L-I-M-E-R-C, wait, limerence, L-I-M-E-R-C-E-N-C, oh, I'm butchering it, but you get it, limerence. Because that early stage of chasing doesn't necessarily mean that he's capable or desires a deep commitment. And if you really want a man to actually invest, let's replace the word chase with invest in the relationship, then every man needs to experience this. Now, let me just share something with you all. There's a picture of my beloved and I. I say beloved because she's my partner. We're partners now. We live together. Now, for some people, I've had emails from people saying, oh, my God, Jonathan, you live together. You're living out of wedlock and all that kind of stuff.  Folks, I would marry this girl. I want to marry her. I'm waiting for her to want to marry me. And we just haven't reached that point yet, but I certainly know this is someone I definitely want to go the distance with. And yet I didn't know this in the beginning of our dating. Now, a lot of men will tell you they knew she was the one on a first date, but these, I want you to think back to when men used to say that. They used to say that before these devices, okay? Before we had ample access to opportunities. And I think what's bastardized the dating, mating, or relating process is internet or swipe dating in particular, the belief that if something doesn't work out with this person, there's always another person around the corner. So understand that we are in different times than in the past when a man knew she was the one because certainly before there was internet dating we used to date based on proximity. We dated the person that we physically saw and within a short period of time. By the way, that short period of time sometimes was just weeks before people got married. Nowadays, the average person has had multiple relationships. And because of those multiple relationships many people, myself included can be gun shy. That's right, gun shy. And what oftentimes happens for men when they pull away is this sense of gun shy because many of us, myself included, have been hurt before. I know many of my friends who've gone through divorce have told me how horrific the experience was and that makes them a little bit less likely to fully commit to a relationship or fully commit to someone until they actually know this person is safe to be with. I know even with my beloved, even though I was strongly interested in her I had that push-pull experience meaning I pushed forward and then pulled back and I pushed forward and pulled back because it takes time. As I said, it takes a hundred hours to just face-to-face time to build that layer of trust.  So I'm here to say almost every man on some level pulls away, even myself included even though from the moment we met I have not literally, I have not dated anyone, I haven't pursued anyone since the moment we met. Okay, so we've been fully engaged with each other. And yet I did pull back a little bit. There was fear that happened, it's natural but that didn't cause me to ghost or disappear. That pulling back is merely a reevaluation based on the past hurts. Does it feel like I'm gonna go down this rabbit hole of hurt again and so we naturally come to a place of center just to feel safe for a moment which is very common for a lot of men. Now, for men who have done the personal development, self-help and spiritual work and I'm here to say I'm here to say that it's critically important these days that humans come to the dating, mating and relating process, having done some healing from their past relationships. That's right, some healing from their past relationships because if there isn't any healing oftentimes that if there's a traumatic experience they carry that forward and a lot of times two people connect together and they're trauma bonds finding that they're attached to another human being in an emotionally unhealthy way. This is why folks I teach in my private coaching. Here's a link to schedule a discovery call with me. What I teach in my private coaching is first out to determine really compatibility, understanding compatibility and understanding who's compatible with you. Secondly, how to ask the right questions based on your personality to see if he's compatible with you. And lastly to vet for his emotional maturity. If you're not familiar with my emotional maturity relationship skills, many of you are. A little bit of a glare there. I want you to say this is merely an opinion, not a fact. I believe roughly 20% of the population has clinical issues. And while I say 20% have good relationship skills the vast majority of human beings are dysfunctional.  You actually vet this person. And again, if you need help, there's a link below to schedule a discovery call with me to see if working with the coach is right for you. Because the bottom line is this. Most people we meet are rather got terrible relationship skills. And by the way, this chart isn't about men. This is women as well. Ladies, just because you have a propensity to express your feelings more so than men doesn't mean you're good at relationship skills either. Just because many of you get attached to somebody in an unhealthy way, doesn't mean you're good at this stuff either. So let's recognize that this isn't a singular male issue. This is a human being issue. So what's it gonna take? What's it gonna take for a relationship to get over the edge, to get over the hump, to really lean into something more substantial? Well, I wanna share something with you that I wrote. As I was saying early on, I went through a push-pull, meaning I was pushing and pulling away, just very briefly, because with so many previous experiences in my life and also the perceived choice, it was a little bit harder to know if someone was a fit for me, meaning we had to build this level of trust. We had to build this following piece. And that is, and every man needs this to be able to lean into a healthy, happy relationship. We need these two things. We need to become friends with you. That's right, friends with you. I wanna, and there's a second piece I wanna share as well. There's a meme I posted on my Instagram today. I'd like to share it with everyone. It's a cute little meme. It's gonna be hard to see it, so I just wanna put it up in the camera, just so you can see what it looks like. But the first says, I love, I love, wait a minute, I love laughing with you. It's a boy and a girl looking, I'm gonna say it's a boy and a girl looking together, looking at each other. The next is I love walking with you. The next picture of the two of them together, I love working with you. The next is I love talking with you. And then the girl says, but I also love just existing with you.  Folks, what I see missing today in so many relationships is this piece of developing the genuine friendship between two people. It's, again, a lot of dating rhetoric is so hyper-focused on attraction and so hyper-focused on game-playing, like the book, The Rules, and so hyper-focused on romance. And yet without any regard to really the most important aspect of a relationship is building the deep friendship, the deep roots of trust. And if you follow my narrative, you know, trust is built through spending three or four days and nights a week together, doing shared activities, hobbies, mutual interests, spending time with family and friends, traveling together, teamwork building skills, both in your personal and professional life, intimacy, both physical and emotional intimacy with an agreement of moving towards either living together or getting married. Folks, many of you are choosing casual relationships. Many of you are choosing unbeknownst to you friends with benefits relationships. Many of you that are in long distance relationships are merely in cyber relationships. Many of you are experiencing mediocre relationships, wondering when is magic theory that's gonna change all of this? But Jonathan, I've been told that if I sit in my feminine energy, a man will naturally claim me. Let me tell you something. Being claimed, let me think about that narrative. I've heard this from other feminine energy coaches. Being claimed by a guy, property is something we claim. A relationship is about choosing mutual partnership with one another, mutual partnership with one another. And that starts by building that friendship together along with this second piece that is critically important for a man to genuinely want to invest in you. And that is he has to wanna take care of you. Folks, I remember earlier, I said monogamy, commitment, trust and loyalty. What does that mean? Loyalty, that means I've got your back. I'll be there for you when you need me. To some degree, I wanna take care of you. Do you know, many of you are swimming in mediocre relationships where there's literally no feeling of this person has my back. Now, I don't mean take care of you financially, but certainly take care of you emotionally. What's the whole narrative of provider protector used to be protect you against the lions with my spear? Well, we don't have to deal with that. By the way, most guys wouldn't know how to fight their way out of a paper bag, myself included. But providing for isn't necessarily about money. It's about the emotional protection that comes from building deep emotional intimacy between two people and deep emotional intimacy comes by building that kind of friendship with one another. You know, it's interesting. You know, my girlfriend said to me yesterday, we're doing the binge watching of that show that I was talking about. She said to me, I just like being with you. I just like being with you.  We say, I love you to each other all the time, but like, like is a really powerful word to say I like someone. Oftentimes we use the feeling that I care for someone, but when you like someone, you treat them with a different level of respect. And yet sadly, many people are experiencing companionship, connection and sex without any real genuine development towards partnership.  Shared values, blendable lifestyles and emotional maturity. Because if you're walking in the dark or you're walking with dark glasses on in a dark room, you're gonna trip and fall. And if you're watching this video, there's no excuse because I recommend book after book after book on my channel. And by the way, there's a look in the description below to read all the books or check out all the books I recommend. Is this sinking in? Is this resonating? Please let me know. So what's gonna make a guy chase you folks? It's going to be the development of the friendship and how do you develop friendship, social activities, hobbies, mutual interests, spending time with family and friends, traveling together, teamwork, building skills, both in your personal and professional life, intimacy and physical and emotional intimacy as well. That's how the bonding of two people can occur where a man will invest you. You don't have to worry about him chasing you. He'll invest you because men need this just like you need it. We need to develop the friendship and we need to get to that space of wanting to take care of you. And until that happens, and many of you are experiencing this, you just might be in a casual relationship right now. And I invite you to set a higher standard for yourself. But Jonathan, I'm supposed to let a man lead. Folks, most guys are winging it. They don't know what they're doing. You're in charge of your relationship, Destiny. And you're the emotional leader of the relationship by setting the standard from the get-go and making sure you've established good boundaries for yourself. And that's my two cents and I'm sticking to it. All right, I think this will be a great place to wrap up this video. First off, I'm gonna give myself a big, gigantic job at the bar of self-love. I'm gonna reach into the camera and give you a hug of love if that's okay. I'm asking you to turn to someone. A pet, a teddy bear or pillow. There's a teddy bear. Give it or them a hug of love because hugs are a great source of love. And let's face it, we could all use more love in our lives. I wanna thank Kim and T Davis and Linning.


you remember those two cleaves you much yesterday duke and phillips yes what did you think of them what do you mean well I mean just that what did you think of them I don't know quite how to answer that question Mr. Morrison if you mean did I like them then I don't know I'm not used to making snap judgments you know mm-hmm well look you're new here you're my roommate so I wonder if you'd mind my giving a little advice well certainly not what sort of advice well this this doogon kid is bad luck I don't think I understand I mean he manages somehow or other to get people in trouble I don't see how he can if the persons themselves aren't inclined that way you don't get it Bruce he's just naturally poisoned I do wish you'd tell me what you mean okay doogon got me into a lot of trouble I don't tell anyone this because I hate to look like a heel heel you know what I mean I don't want anybody to think that I'm repeating things but if you're wise you'll stay away from both doogon and phillips I beg your pardon Mr. Morrison but I can choose my own friends or acquaintances okay okay have it your own way I was just trying to tip you off to something that's all I appreciate your interest but I'd like to form my own judgments mm-hmm well better hurry and get dressed I shall this doogon kid was in a circus circus really mm-hmm traveled with it ran away from home or something like that and joined I thought you said he was an orphan well I did I did what I meant was he joined the circus traveled with it got into some messes or something he seems like a nice enough chap oh I guess he's all right but he just seems to be bad luck I still don't see what you mean well I look for a kid who traveled with a circus it just doesn't fit in for him to have enough money to come to school he was supposed to be an orphan where did he get the money oh that's pretty weak mr. Morrison there are such things as wheels you know yeah I know okay I won't say any more about it did you see my dress boots no I've only been in my own locker thanks why did you say this doogon is bad luck well he got it and got me into a lot of trouble he made me do a couple of foolish things I'm gonna stay clear of him from now on and you had advised me to do the same that's up to you I know it but from what I've heard around the school here doogon and Phillips did quite a good thing in the what was it Linwell's rescue you mean yes yes that's it well maybe they did look here are you trying to tell me that you don't like doogon and Phillips I told you I'm not trying to tell you anything I'm just trying to tip you off you can take it or leave it I shall thank you I'm gonna take a walk out to the pool of field and watch practice want to come along I should like to very much thank you okay about ready quite after you ever do any writing Bruce yes in India much of it well quite a bit father played on the dodging team you know do they keep a large stable here oh yeah doogon has his own horse his own horse I don't understand well it was sent here to him from the circus really but I understood that no cadet was allowed to have things like that well maybe doogon's an exception I don't see how well it was sent to him the horse is supposed to belong to the school but it seems that Jerry doogon gets to write him all the time in fact he's writing Splendor on the drill team Splendor oh that's the horse's name I suppose they're here we turn here oh yes but Mr. Morrison if the horse belongs to the school as you say it's supposed to why does doogon have the first claim on him well that's something you have to ask doogon I oh here comes Phillips oh yes good afternoon Riley going out to watch the practice yes you came from that yeah I got tired of standing out there alone so I thought I'd walk in want to come back with us well okay I'm anything to do for about an hour all right looks like not quite a nice field out here oh I'll say it is I was writing practice coming along Lee swell Splendor looks great in pivot position well that's the horse Mr. Morrison oh yeah there are the stable there oh I see them did you tell Bruce about Splendor read yeah just a little does the horse belong to Mr. Doogon and say they got the shells out on the lake you ask if the horse belongs to Jerry Bruce well he does and he doesn't pardon well the horse did belong to Jerry Mr. Randall he's Jerry's guardian and the man who owns the circus Jerry was with sent Splendor here to Faroaks that major Davis thought it would be better if the horse were a gift to the school rather than do one particular cadet do it was pretty sore about that huh say there you can see Splendor from here the white horse oh is that Mr. Doogon up on him yeah that's Jerry but red what do you mean Jerry was sore about it well wasn't he well yeah but okay okay forget about it what's Mr. Doogon angry well I guess so but they're taking the jumps now oh yes I see we'll stand here by the sideboards we can see better nice looking ponies do you ride Bruce or a little I say Doogon didn't handle that last jump very well no he didn't well he's tired they've been at it for a couple of hours now he failed to allow enough rain for the jump yeah I noticed that too he's gonna try it again yes the horse seems a little sluggish maybe he isn't being handled right no he wasn't on that last jump too bad oh they're calling practice off now want to walk over and take a closer look at the horses Bruce I should like to particularly Splendor will introduce you to Sergeant Alden too if you ride he'd be glad to know there may be a place in the polo team thank you I should be glad to know him okay you're gonna get a chance because here he comes a Sergeant Alden oh yes Lee will you come here a minute please all right Sergeant Alden I want you to meet Bruce Dowl Campbell he's a new cadet here at Barrow's upper classman how are your Campbell Dowl Campbell the last name is Dowl Campbell oh I'm sorry we hope you'll like it here at Faroaks everyone else does I think I shall Bruce ride Sergeant Alden good never play any polo Bruce yes a bit in India that's a good enough recommendation India was the birthplace of polo but you ever play on any organized team or not exactly sir my father played on Darjeeling team I used to practice with him good and how about coming out for the team here why shall sir oh here comes Jerry oh all right boys I'll see you all later I hope you'll come out Bruce

Alden put really put us through our paces we were out on the field a good two hours that last jump wasn't so good Jerry yeah I know it wasn't I didn't give enough rain that's what Bruce was saying no what do you say we take a walk over to max place okay by me I could use a bottle of pop I want to come along Bruce red no thank you I don't know okay just thought I'd ask your mouth seemed a little sluggish out there Mr. Duggan well I was a little tired he wasn't splendor's fault I guess he needs a little more training splendor he does not he's a best horse out there well I just thought I'd mention that he seemed a little sluggish that was my fault I I didn't give him enough rain and he pulled back a little when he got to the jump you can't can't blame that on the horse well what are you getting sore about Jerry he isn't getting sore red well if he isn't I never saw anybody mad I'm not sore well I can't understand why one little remark should lead to a quarrel it's rather silly don't you think it's not so oh come on Jerry and let's all go over to max and that's my scream of something you're just tired and soar cut it out red sure what do you do soar again how about it Bruce let's have some ice cream never for thank you okay that's the way you feel about hold it it could come such an older Bruce yes sir are you are you doing anything in particular now I know sir nothing at all well I've got a little time on myself and if you care to let me watch you ride I can get a line on you right now let's well well I don't have riding clothes on sir well that's all right you won't need them you won't need spurs or boots very good sir just as you say that that kind of dog sounds like army talk I suppose I picked up a lot of my father's mannerism sir oh I see okay Bruce do you want to try when I see your style I may be able to place you on one of the teams thank you sir I'll try good now oh take splendor there the white horse splendor he's tired sir well that's all right Jerry this won't be a hard workout oh just take him around the field once Bruce you trot canter gallop and let me see a few wheels and turns very good sir gosh Jerry he gets on the horses if he knows what it's all about mm-hmm you can usually tell whether a man knows horses by the way he mounts all right there Bruce go ahead yes sir hmm nice seat good line say he's all right say did you see that I didn't see him touch the reins but splendor broke right into a gallop yeah he knows what he's doing all right all right Bruce that's enough bring him back no wheels a turn sir no no I've seen enough I'll come here yes sir yes sir we're having a practice game here tomorrow oh Polo I mean when how would you like to play on one of the teams I may be a bit rusty sir but I'll try that's all right I'll expect you here tomorrow afternoon at three oh and you too Jerry yes sir well see all your boys later goodbye that was great blues splendor didn't seem sluggish when you were on him thank you I told you it was me not the horse then you should learn how to ride Dugan well after two hours anyone would be tired that all depends depends on what well the rider I mean to say that the rider has a lot to do with the horse becoming exhausted say let's go over to Max we won't be able to spend much time over there okay you won't come along how Bruce now thank you read hmm I'll stick around here I want to show Bruce the ground and the boat house well okay see you later so long so long see you later well that's that splendor is a good horse isn't he very good well how about taking a walk down to the boat house very well mr. Morrison yeah I should like to apologize to you to me what for well to tell you the truth when you were talking about Dugan in our room I rather had the idea there might have been some motive on your part for trying to get me to dislike Dugan what did you think that oh just the way you spoke oh why the apology I I just believed what you were saying oh well you don't have to apologize for it yes yes I think I do because right at this moment I'm beginning to think you were right about mr. Dugan
