listening. The American industry.

American industry, 145.

Yes, it's a good buy, I think.

Of course, the next evident is questionable.

If I were you, I'd get into white wheel of refineries.

They're going to move that stock up five points in it.

Oh, excuse me, sir, I'll call you back.

I'm speaking.

Davis, six, eight. Ames speaking. Stuart, this is Dawn. Oh, yes, darling. What is it? I'm quite busy. Holding its own, I'd say. White Willow is off a fraction. That's what you're really interested in, isn't it? Oh, you're what I'm really interested in, Stuart. Well, tell me about it tonight, will you, darling. I've got some people waiting to see me. I'll be up around... Well, you better name it time. Oh, I can get rid of Nate around 8.30. Place 8 and be up around 9, will you? I'll be there. Goodbye, darling. Bye. Sit right down again, Ames. I want to talk to you.

Oh, it's you, Mr. Leroy.

How are you?

I'll let you know in a little while.

As soon as I close the store so we can have some privacy.

Yes?

What is it?

Ames.

Three months ago, you urged me to buy 10,000 shares of White Willow refineries. I wouldn't say I urged you. I pointed out that the company was in good financial shape and had excellent possibilities. It was going to be a merger. If it gone through, the shares had been split, two for one. Yes, I know. That's what you told me. But there was no merger. And the stock is off 15 points from what I paid for it. I'm sorry, Mr. Leroy. I don't control the companies. I just recommend investments for my clients. And most times it turn out well. You knew White Willow was a dog stock when you put me in it. I've lost $150,000. All the money I had in the world. Oh, look here, Mr. Leroy. You can't be blaming me for that. The investment must have looked good to you. Yes, it looked good because you recommended it. I mortgaged everything I own. What is it debt to buy that stock? I'm broke, Ames. If I sold that stock now, I couldn't get enough money to pay my debts. I'm really sorry, Mr. Leroy, but there isn't anything I can possibly do about it.

No, huh?
