Well, welcome to the House of Morgan. Sit down, missus Stephens,
mister Brown, make it up at all.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
Oh yeah, I was thinking, miss Morgan. One of the things,
that's exactly how I pictured a big investment broker's office
was going to look me neither you know something kingfish
yetting from the furniture my office could almost pass for
the House of Morgan.
Speaker 8 (10:41):
Well, now you see, boys, this is the little, unpretentious
office where I started in business forty years ago, and
I've always kept it. Keeps me from getting a big head,
and I also found it an excellent place to get
over one what, mister Stephens, Let's get down to the
matter of the money I'm going to invest for you.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
Now.
Speaker 5 (11:02):
The stock I've gotten mind for you is Brazilian brass.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
Selling at twenty and a quarter.
Speaker 8 (11:07):
It's a great vibe that you've got to move fair
Brazilian braws.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
Uh don't seem like I ever heard of that.
Speaker 5 (11:13):
What you never heard of the brass mines of Brazil.
Speaker 1 (11:17):
I'd never heard no brass minds.
Speaker 4 (11:19):
No place You've never heard of brass minds, never heard
of brass minds.
Speaker 8 (11:24):
My good man, You believe me if I told you
I saw these brass minds with my very own eyes.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
Oh, yes, I would believe you, you would.
Speaker 8 (11:33):
Yeah, I saw these minds under peculiar circumstances. When it
first became known that pure refined brass was being mined
in a raw state, it immediately struck me as a
great investment possibility. Rather than benham blindly into an unknown field,
several other investment bankers myself decided to take a trip
(11:53):
to the Brazilian brass minds. After weeks and weeks of
misery and hardship, our travels brought us to the head
waters of the Amazon.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
The traveling was pretty tough, well.
Speaker 8 (12:04):
It was until we got out of the United States.
Having arrived at our Alzambud destination. We lost no time
fulfilling the purpose of our mission. And by the way,
these mines were actually mountains of solid brass honey combed
with tunnels. What the picturesque thrilling sight. It was that
(12:26):
first morning as the sun rose, literally.
Speaker 5 (12:29):
Thousands of natives out there polishing.
Speaker 1 (12:31):
The poothills at More.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
You mean to stay There was a mountain day of
solid brass.
Speaker 4 (12:39):
Mountain.
Speaker 5 (12:40):
There's a mountain rains stretching away as far as the.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
Eye can reach.
Speaker 8 (12:43):
A shimmering line of brass reminded me of a long
brass rail. In fact, one evening, i'd had a ship
too much of the native goat milk and tried to
rest my foot on it.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
Goat milk.
Speaker 2 (12:57):
Huh yeah, Well, investments down gret already, Miss Morgan. But
as long as our only investment overnight, I'd kind of
like to keep the money in this country, you see.
Speaker 4 (13:07):
Oh yes, sir, I is crazy about brass dot too,
mister Morgan. The only thing is we want to invest
in something that ain't gonna turn.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
Green on us. Agree, yes, I see. Well, I'll tell
you what.
Speaker 8 (13:19):
Let me call and get the latest quotation on Brazilian brannum. Then,
as I told you an hour ago, it was twenty
in the quarter. I'd like to see you get in
on this before it goes too high.
Speaker 5 (13:30):
What's Brazilian brass?
Speaker 3 (13:32):
When you hear the tone, the time will be five
thirty four and one half.
Speaker 8 (13:36):
Yeah, well, it's just as I told you, it's up
to thirty.
Speaker 5 (13:39):
Four and a half.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
And incidentally, it's getting late thirty four and a hair
you think it's.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
Going higher every minute.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
Here's them a four hundred dollars, mister Morgan, Get me
as much of it as you can, and I'll see
you tomorrow. Brother Andrew, this is the smartest move out
an ever a million.
Speaker 3 (14:07):
Well, Kingfish may think this is the smartest move he's
ever made, but if we're not wrong, he's due for
a surprise. We'll hear about it in just a moment. Meanwhile, ladies,
how's your wash day disposition by the time supper rolls around?
Anything like this, Well, you just have to.
Speaker 6 (14:22):
Take top nut, that's all.
Speaker 4 (14:23):
I've been rubbing and scrubbing until my back ache and
I'm two tires a spot.
Speaker 3 (14:28):
Well, you can't blame a lady for getting cross after
a long, hard day over the washtub. Seems like an
awful waste of time and energy, though, when Rinto's no
farther away than the grocery store, those thick, peppy Rinsto
studs just soak your clothes clean. A few quick rubs
on the badly soiled places, and your wash is clean
as a whistle. You see, rinso gets out more dirt
(14:50):
though washable colors come rin So bright. Stay that way too,
through dozens of washing. And wait, do you see your
white clothes come out?
Speaker 8 (14:59):
Wow?
Speaker 3 (15:00):
But I'll have you whistling while you wash like this,
rinstoll white. Don't get rensto tomorrow, won't you? And now
back to Amos and Andy and their guest Frank Morgan. Well,
(15:25):
the Kingfish has invested his four hundred dollars with Frank Morgan,
who he thinks is a reputable investment council. As the
Kingfish told Andy, he plans to take the profit from
the deal and open up an investment business of his own,
taking Andy in with him. It's the following morning and
Andy is already two hours deep in the investment business.
He's just returned to the office and he's talking to
(15:46):
his new part time secretary.
Speaker 4 (15:49):
You know, miss Blue, this investment business is gonna make
my office here the wall street of Harlem. Tell me
this was any calls while I was over?
Speaker 6 (15:58):
Yeah, so there was one mister b A man named
Roberts called.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
Oh great, great, Yeah, what do he want to invest in.
Speaker 6 (16:05):
I don't know. All he said was at your laundry
won't be ready for four weeks.
Speaker 4 (16:10):
Uh, maybe I better invest in some underwear and shirts myself.
You know, this investments business a show getting off to
a slow start.
Speaker 1 (16:21):
But as soon as.
Speaker 4 (16:22):
He gets that money with things, the little shows start
rolling around here.
Speaker 6 (16:26):
Yes, I think money is certainly nice to have.
Speaker 5 (16:29):
In a business.
Speaker 3 (16:31):

Speaker 4 (16:31):
Well, what I'm gonna do is start lining up some investors.

Wait a minute. You can take a letter in shorthand,
can't you.
Speaker 6 (16:45):
Well, yeah, yes, I came if you want me to.
But I don't think it's always fine. There'll be a
lot of people that can't read my shorthand.
Speaker 4 (16:55):
But after you get it in shorthand, you could write
it on the typewriter, couldn't you.
Speaker 6 (16:59):
No, So you see I was one of the people
that can't read it.
Speaker 4 (17:05):
All right, all right, all right, forget the letters. One
thing you can do around here, though, is answer the telephone.
Seeing the big executive, I'm supposed to answer the phone,
even when I was yell, you have got to take
all the calls and then find out whether Isa is
in or not. See and another thing? I oh, wait

broadcast to our armed forces everywhere. This is Harlow Wilcox
saying good night to all of you from all of
us and reminding you that one of our greatest sources
of commercial fats and oils is now in the hands
(30:20):
of the Japanese. When our need for those products is
greater than ever before, this important source of supply is
cut off. And that is why every American housewife must
save every drop of used fats and greases. Remember, your
butcher will pay you four cents and two red ration
points for every pound of used fats, So keep saving
kitchen fats and turn them into your butcher regularly. Why
(31:04):
is Life Boy America's favorite bath soap. I'll tell you
two big reasons. Life Boy and your Daily Bath gives
all over protection from the oh yes, from head to toe.
Speaker 1 (31:14):
It stops the O.
Speaker 4 (31:16):

please say, make sure Life Boys in your soap dish.
It's the only soap especially made to stop.

Andy Show with their guest tonight, the star of Metro
Golden Mayer's production hold high the torch. Frank Morgan, a
(00:40):
lady I know, always hides her Christmas gifts for the
children in the cupboard under the kitchen sink. She says,
that's one part of the house the whole family avoids.
They're so afraid of having to help with the dishes. Well,
if it's the same way in your house, ladies, you'd
better switch to Rinso. Those swell Soapie rich SuDS are
all the help you need. They really go to town
(01:02):
on grease and crusted food particles, send them scooting in
practically no time. It's just as easy as humming a
tune to get even the stubborn as pots and fans
sparkling Rinso clean and Ladies, Rinso's easy on your hands
doesn't get them rough and bread so tomorrow, switch to
Sophie Rich Rinso now Amos and Andy and their guess
(01:25):
Frank Morgan. Well, a few weeks ago, crossed wires in
the home of mister and missus George Kingfish Stephens started
a fire in the living room which destroyed or damaged
most of the furniture. Luckily, the Kingfish had a fire
(01:48):
insurance policy covering it all. And at the moment we
find Henry Van Porter at the Stephens' home with a
check covering the loss.
Speaker 4 (01:56):
Well, Kingfish, here's your check from our insurance cup.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
Seeing the amount of four hundred.
Speaker 4 (02:01):

Speaker 2 (03:35):
Suddenly I trips and the chairs fire right out of
my hands, right into the flames.
Speaker 1 (03:40):

if you ever have another fire, King.
Speaker 5 (03:46):

I've always kept it. Keeps me from getting a big head,
and I also found it an excellent place to get
over one what, mister Stephens, Let's get down to the
matter of the money I'm going to invest for you.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
Now.
Speaker 5 (11:02):
The stock I've gotten mind for you is Brazilian brass.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
Selling at twenty and a quarter.
Speaker 8 (11:07):
It's a great vibe that you've got to move fair
Brazilian braws.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
Uh don't seem like I ever heard of that.
Speaker 5 (11:13):
What you never heard of the brass mines of Brazil.
Speaker 1 (11:17):
I'd never heard no brass minds.
Speaker 4 (11:19):
No place You've never heard of brass minds, never heard
of brass minds.
Speaker 8 (11:24):
My good man, You believe me if I told you
I saw these brass minds with my very own eyes.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
Oh, yes, I would believe you, you would.
Speaker 8 (11:33):
Yeah, I saw these minds under peculiar circumstances. When it
first became known that pure refined brass was being mined
in a raw state, it immediately struck me as a
great investment possibility. Rather than benham blindly into an unknown field,
several other investment bankers myself decided to take a trip
(11:53):
to the Brazilian brass minds. After weeks and weeks of
misery and hardship, our travels brought us to the head
waters of the Amazon.
Speaker 1 (12:02):
The traveling was pretty tough, well.
Speaker 8 (12:04):
It was until we got out of the United States.
Having arrived at our Alzambud destination. We lost no time
fulfilling the purpose of our mission. And by the way,
these mines were actually mountains of solid brass honey combed
with tunnels. What the picturesque thrilling sight. It was that
(12:26):
first morning as the sun rose, literally.
Speaker 5 (12:29):
Thousands of natives out there polishing.
Speaker 1 (12:31):
The poothills at More.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
You mean to stay There was a mountain day of
solid brass.
Speaker 4 (12:39):
Mountain.
Speaker 5 (12:40):
There's a mountain rains stretching away as far as the.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
Eye can reach.
Speaker 8 (12:43):
A shimmering line of brass reminded me of a long
brass rail. In fact, one evening, i'd had a ship
too much of the native goat milk and tried to
rest my foot on it.
Speaker 1 (12:57):
Goat milk.
Speaker 2 (12:57):
Huh yeah, Well, investments down gret already, Miss Morgan. But
as long as our only investment overnight, I'd kind of
like to keep the money in this country, you see.
Speaker 4 (13:07):
Oh yes, sir, I is crazy about brass dot too,
mister Morgan. The only thing is we want to invest
in something that ain't gonna turn.
Speaker 1 (13:14):
Green on us. Agree, yes, I see. Well, I'll tell
you what.
Speaker 8 (13:19):
Let me call and get the latest quotation on Brazilian brannum. Then,
as I told you an hour ago, it was twenty
in the quarter. I'd like to see you get in
on this before it goes too high.
Speaker 5 (13:30):
What's Brazilian brass?
Speaker 3 (13:32):
When you hear the tone, the time will be five
thirty four and one half.
Speaker 8 (13:36):
Yeah, well, it's just as I told you, it's up
to thirty.
Speaker 5 (13:39):
Four and a half.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
And incidentally, it's getting late thirty four and a hair
you think it's.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
Going higher every minute.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
Here's them a four hundred dollars, mister Morgan, Get me
as much of it as you can, and I'll see
you tomorrow. Brother Andrew, this is the smartest move out
an ever a million.
Speaker 3 (14:07):
Well, Kingfish may think this is the smartest move he's
ever made, but if we're not wrong, he's due for
a surprise. We'll hear about it in just a moment. Meanwhile, ladies,
how's your wash day disposition by the time supper rolls around?
Anything like this, Well, you just have to.
Speaker 6 (14:22):
Take top nut, that's all.
Speaker 4 (14:23):
I've been rubbing and scrubbing until my back ache and
I'm two tires a spot.
Speaker 3 (14:28):
Well, you can't blame a lady for getting cross after
a long, hard day over the washtub. Seems like an
awful waste of time and energy, though, when Rinto's no
farther away than the grocery store, those thick, peppy Rinsto
studs just soak your clothes clean. A few quick rubs
on the badly soiled places, and your wash is clean
as a whistle. You see, rinso gets out more dirt
(14:50):
though washable colors come rin So bright. Stay that way too,
through dozens of washing. And wait, do you see your
white clothes come out?
Speaker 8 (14:59):
Wow?
Speaker 3 (15:00):
But I'll have you whistling while you wash like this,
rinstoll white. Don't get rensto tomorrow, won't you? And now
back to Amos and Andy and their guest Frank Morgan. Well,
(15:25):
the Kingfish has invested his four hundred dollars with Frank Morgan,
who he thinks is a reputable investment council. As the
Kingfish told Andy, he plans to take the profit from
the deal and open up an investment business of his own,
taking Andy in with him. It's the following morning and
Andy is already two hours deep in the investment business.
He's just returned to the office and he's talking to
(15:46):
his new part time secretary.
Speaker 4 (15:49):
You know, miss Blue, this investment business is gonna make
my office here the wall street of Harlem. Tell me
this was any calls while I was over?
Speaker 6 (15:58):
Yeah, so there was one mister b A man named
Roberts called.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
Oh great, great, Yeah, what do he want to invest in.
Speaker 6 (16:05):
I don't know. All he said was at your laundry
won't be ready for four weeks.
Speaker 4 (16:10):
Uh, maybe I better invest in some underwear and shirts myself.
You know, this investments business a show getting off to
a slow start.
Speaker 1 (16:21):
But as soon as.
Speaker 4 (16:22):
He gets that money with things, the little shows start
rolling around here.
Speaker 6 (16:26):
Yes, I think money is certainly nice to have.
Speaker 5 (16:29):

Speaker 3 (16:31):

Wait a minute. You can take a letter in shorthand,
can't you.
Speaker 6 (16:45):
Well, yeah, yes, I came if you want me to.
But I don't think it's always fine. There'll be a
lot of people that can't read my shorthand.
Speaker 4 (16:55):
But after you get it in shorthand, you could write
it on the typewriter, couldn't you.
Speaker 6 (16:59):
No, So you see I was one of the people
that can't read it.
Speaker 4 (17:05):
All right, all right, all right, forget the letters. One
thing you can do around here, though, is answer the telephone.
Seeing the big executive, I'm supposed to answer the phone,
even when I was yell, you have got to take
all the calls and then find out whether Isa is
in or not. See and another thing? I oh, wait

greater than ever before, this important source of supply is
cut off. And that is why every American housewife must
save every drop of used fats and greases. Remember, your
butcher will pay you four cents and two red ration
points for every pound of used fats, So keep saving
kitchen fats and turn them into your butcher regularly. Why
