From Hollywood, it's time now for Edmund O'Brien.

Johnny Dollar.

Mr. Dahl, my name is Ed Best.

I'm in the investment department of the financial surety company.

Oh, sure. I've worked for the company.

Yes, Bruce Hardwick told me about you.

I have something I'd like to have you look into.

What is it?

Briefly.

A few years ago, we bought controlling interest in the Stanley Springs Company, an organization in the Southwest that deals in cotton as a couple of gin.

I just got a letter from out there to the fact that behind the scene, the company is carrying on illegal traffic across the Mexican border.

How close a check do you keep on the outfit?

Our accountant goes out for a quarterly examination, and he certainly reported nothing

suspicious, but we businessmen aren't trained to handle smuggling organizations if one does exist.

Yeah, well, training is very seldom enough, but I'll come down this afternoon talking over with you.
