Read the following scene from the little foxes
ben. (very jovial) i suppose i have been. and why not? horace has done hubbard sons many a good turn. why
shouldn't i be anxious to him now?
regina. (laughs) him! him when you need him, that's what you mean.
ben. what a woman you married, horace. (laughs awkwardly when horace does not answer well, then i'll make
it quick. you know what i've been telling you for years. how i've always said that every one of us little southern
businessmen had great things-extends his arm) right beyond our fingertips. it's been my dream: my dream to
make those fingers grow longer: i'm a lucky man, horace, a lucky man. to dream and to live to get what you've
dreamed of. that's my idea of a lucky man. (looks at his fingers as his arm drops slowly) for thirty years i've cried
bring the cotton mills to the cotton. (horace opens medicine bottle). well, finally got up nerve to go to marshall
company in chicago.
what would be similar about a stage and a film interpretation of this scene?

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
