these children are all orphans there are

30 of them in this Camp Africans with

their strong sense of family l loyalty

are ready to acknowledge the most

distant ties of kinship yet no relative

of these sad children has come forward

to claim them all are dead or scattered

in the chaos of war the children have

only each other to lean

[Music]

on have any of them been able to go back

to their Farms yet at all since they

came back years they have been able to

go back to their Farms but they find

that the Farms have been overgrown and

much of the crops

lost so it is difficult still to aler

they're relying on you to a considerable

extent so for food in fact there are

whatever food we can get in from many

quarters that's all that they have to

eat and uh we need a lot of Charity what

about the people who are dying

here the rate of death has sharply

increased from 2 a week in this Camp to

7 since the operations

in 7 a day

now are you worried about disease in

this Camp oh very very much so because

we are suffering here from dentry and

malaria

malnutrition and shortage of nurses and

doctors we have no doctor here the last

6 weeks any chance of getting people

into Hospital there's no hospital around

if we had a hospital that we would like

it very much what drugs do you need most

uh malaria drugs and dentry drugs for

dentry nutrition vitamin pills if we

could get them and uh vaccinations of

course when there is danger of small pox

if you could get forther do to

vaccinated the people very very grateful

what situation do you think would arrive

FKS did start here what would happen I'm

afraid everybody would be wiped out easy

as

that this tin of tuna fish actually came

from caratz International it could

equally well have come from the Red

Cross the World Council of churches or

Oxfam they've all contributed relief

supplies to this

war9 you know you really are

oldfashioned nobody uses beds

anymore can I sleep here

afterwards did you ever let any of us

sleep here

afterwards

even late at

night

why

why I like staying awake with people but

I

like sleeping

alone oh

sorry I always forget you don't like to

kiss listen I want to hear

this have you ever been with a woman you

haven't paid for no

why you know I have a friend of mine

who's been in this business about 400

years I think she made it with

Washington at Valley

Forge and she knows everything about

everything especially this and you know

what she said she said making love is

90% control and 10% emotion and she only

found one like that in her

life wait till I tell her I've got a

trick in my book who's 97% control and

3%

emotion

listen you want me to say I love

you I never know whether you want me to

say I love you or not you know that when

I was 22 years

old I gave up the business of knowing

anything for the business of

guessing I am a champion

guesser I guess for example the kind of

religions that might be practicable from

an organizational point of view in the

year let's say of

2,300 oh look at me Jonathan look at me

what a waste but that wouldn't take me

too

seriously you know every time I have a

birthday I always do an obituary about

myself look here is a lecture that I'm

giving today to an elite group of

corporate Wizards it's on the expected

vehicular traffic between Boston and

Washington DC in the year

20150 why it has to do with road

builders

supposedly the knowers don't know so the

guessers

guess I've uh I got a job for you a new

job but I don't think you want it why

it's a hard

contract

what's hard about it it has to be

accomplished within a month and I know

that you don't like time limits

but the money is substantially more than

you and I have ever received before but

what is it it's three men two of them in

Europe one of them is in talino Spain

right on the

Mediterranean and the second is in

Brussels and the third they haven't

located yet where well uh do they know

are they hiding of course not I have no

inkling

whatsoever well I don't like hard

contracts but uh i' never been in Europe

I'd like to see

Europe when what do you know about the

third one well you call me from Brussels

when you're done I'll be able to tell

you by

then oh Jonathan I wish I was going with

you to

Molinos I been a Bain in 30

years you know I used to practically

live in the

pra just before it was Madrid's turn to

go

under I sometimes think that when Madrid

went under so did

I I stopped believing in

anything and I started betting on

everything you know my heroic struggle

was over and after that it's it's all

for spite and then you are

60 did you ever get a ticket for

speeding did you ever get a parking

ticket no now I know you so well that I

could write a biography of you in depth

by simply asking questions to which the

answer would be

no it's a very publishable idea would

not only be a biography it would be a

history as well I call

it I call it the history of

murder from C to

Cunningham and a basic thesis would be

that it gets more and more careful so

now it's so careful there seems to be

practically no crime involved

[Music]

[Music]

anymore

need that kind of a woman when he could

so easily attain to just about any one

of us so to speak he knows their

price he doesn't know

ours and he's quite right of

course

for I guessed it I just had a

feeling I guessed

it no it can't be it's just not

possible after all these years two

husbands

men and several

psychiatrists Sheila look at

me

it really is a

[Music]

miracle good afternoon Mr

Cunningham hey you look happy oh yes yes

I may be going off to Tangier tomorrow

evening Tangier how far is that this in

Africa isn't it mhm why didn't you come

along I'm sure the others wouldn't

mind oh no thanks oh did you find out

about leasing a plane yes well then you

could fly to Tanger it's um less than an

hour away by plane might prove a lovely

flight that's an idea isn't

it yeah maybe I'll do that I I don't

know

well if you don't will you still be here

when I come back it won't be more than

two days well I don't know I'm kind of

moving around a lot I don't have all the

time in the world you know so uh yes

that's true you really ought to see

everything you can while you're here

yeah say

uh can I

uh listen you need money right oh

yeah well the scene you make is a little

too much for

me understand that 6,000 petus is a lot

of money for a man like me and uh I was

wondering that if I'm AER when you get

back we couldn't make some kind of an

arrangement between

us you

know

so

what

happened I think I've just taken a cut

in salary

what

Alexi mhm you have all sorts of um

interests and power haven't

you I want you to have a man

followed wherever he goes if he checks

out of the hotel that is a small enough

request yes but you don't understand

what I mean I mean not just in Toro

Molinos I mean anywhere in the world it

should be

done may I ask why no you may

not Alexi do you like

that then I shall buy it for you I

really think you should have it Alexi

it's a Saint

Teresa one of Spain's most heroic and

martyred

Saints they say she was a Jewish did you

know that it's very well known and not

so odd as it may

seem they say my mother was a saint and

she was a Jewish too did you know that

for

for

[Music]

oh Mr

Cunningham Mr

Cunningham

you're being followed yes I can see that

whatever made you decide to come to ten

Sheila said you probably wouldn't but

I'm delighted I found you I'm her friend

yes I know these are my two guides Alexi

insists that I take them about with me

wherever I roam in these mysterious

streets makes me feel terribly important

I'm Adrien Bedford how do you do I'm

John

Cunningham how Mom for

you you may be part of a miracle do you

realize that part of a miracle yes uh

half of one to be precise well I've

never been half a miracle before well

you couldn't have known you were because

she liked to you she lied to you about

what she is does

she's not she

doesn't she's a very remarkable woman

and she Li

to oh I wasn't going to tell you R off I

was going to make believe I was a

Madam it all started as a

joke perhaps all Miracle start a joke

but you'll never get away now you're

being followed

I mean I'm serious she's having you

followed and if she follows you so do I

and then there's Alexi and Maurice and

Lord knows how many others you may not

realize it Mr Cunningham but you've

inherited an entire family now first

that's Maurice my beautiful Maurice he's

aerian or was lost everything to in the

war his property wife all that's left is

his can and he comes with us to places

I'm not getting any younger these little

loves can sober me up faster than

chemicals their hands are the most

skilled in

Africa and then there's

Alexi

Alexi his name's not really Alexi he's

German has lots of stores in Europe and

Africa in America

too to GS of money out of Germany after

the

war he's responsible for the death of

30,000 chipies in those concentration

camps they say but I don't

believe

could Lexi so sweet thoughtful anyway

they found him guilty and he spent six

years in jail after waiting to go on

trial for four years 10 years long now

all he wants to do is to be forgiven and

we do we English forgive our enemies

almost simultaneously with a crime Now

isn't that

marvelous the things they say to

you now there are eloquent men with

eloquent word for every race every Creed

this is a friend of Jonathan's Mr

Williams this is Mrs Bedford and Mrs

Carlson well I didn't know he had any

friends this should be very interested I

want to know everything about him every

detail as shall I warn you be relentless

Mr Williams and you must swear to be

terribly Indiscreet give away all

confidences I swear

it why don't we start at once if suffer

with us I'd be

delighted you know I haven't been in

this oversized PUO Madrid and over 30

years were you in their Civil War yes I

side in fact that was one of the main

reasons they

lost oh this is Mr Williams a friend of

Jonathan's just arrived he's having

supper with us now this is Alexi and

contract we don't have a contract R she

get somebody else it's

impossible I

they're a miracle those

two could you tell me why oh I couldn't

Poss who that would be terribly

Indiscreet well if you are U terribly

Indiscreet I shall be terribly

Indiscreet you're a wicked man Ramsey

Williams you'll be punished no

absolutely

not see there's no such thing

as punishment

anymore I know I've studied it many

years in the uh

University how marvelous punishment and

crime are you a

criminologist certainly not there's no

such thing as crime

anymore it's something else

now oh but the world is changing R it's

not

changing

changed for instance we used to make the

act of murder a frightening visual

experience but it's it's not frightening

anymore we to kill a man to see a man

kill why we're

immune and because of newspapers and

television and other media we experience

on a kind of 24 hours a day basis

without her knowing it we experience

thousands of murders a day and after

thousands of days thousands of murders

per day we become accustomed you see to

the murder of

millions of the little board and so

now now we are psychologically

prepared for the murder of tens of

millions hello Goya she Ramsey's been

he's been teasing me about crime and

murder honestly Ramsey a man like that a

murderer wouldn't he be sick oh no no no

of course not oh maybe 35 years ago he

sick but it's no longer necessary a lot

has happened in 35 years he he's not

anymore but you know as well as H RS you

that a murderer a man like that what he

does it's immoral of course it's immoral

I mean so murder for profit is immoral

it's just that in these times it's not

that immoral are you trying to say that

it's not wrong no definitely not that

would be insane at worst it be

philosophically adolescent at v no it is

wrong I'm simply saying that in our time

it's not that wrong but it's ridiculous

I mean it's just not true what he's

saying is

it no Adrian it's not

true it's just that it's not that

untrue yeah I heard uh about the miracle

and about them following you and I

thought well I wanted to see if she knew

she doesn't but yours does doesn't she

yeah maybe they all know what yeah the

family what yeah maybe the whole goddamn

family knows

Ramy

well Hy n what do you think of it you

like

it

yeah really

beautiful how many acres do you have oh

about

600

you know

Farms I was brought up in farm country

tobacco

mostly how long ago was

that long than I care to

remember hey you're just a young

one where did you get to be my

age now I left a farm in Wisconsin

during the second world war and I

haven't been back since yeah it's more

or less the same for me except it was

the Korean conflict

it's funny isn't

it what well I lost my youth in one war

you lost yours in another

one I wonder what it' be like if we lost

a

war be the

same you know know that I never read a

book until I was 40 years old that was

15 years

ago first one I read took me a

year after I got through that one well

it's been

easier now I don't think two weeks go by

but I don't finish another

book so you see Cunningham if you'd met

me 15 years ago I everything would have

been

different what happened 15 years ago

nothing special

happened it just came to an end I

stopped

why where'd you stop I didn't plan

it it just happened it's a day-to-day

thing anyway you know you put a few

hundred days together one at a time and

it's a

year then it's two

three after five years while you find

yourself looking back at all the days

you went through the motions of not then

after 10 years you don't have to look

back anymore you look

ahead you know you couldn't go through

those old motions again for

anything you're the same person but it

stopped you don't do it

anymore not for

anything what about

her

Evelyn

did

Cho well I don't think

so what do you

mean well I mean we've been together a

long time she

might when you

stopped do you have enough

money well that had nothing to do with

it nothing at

all but did

you

yes you

know religion and uh and all the great

books of every

country oh you'll have to uh forgive me

Cunningham but at my age with

grandchildren while you think about all

kinds of

things there's one thing that none of

them

know not even your friend

ramsy they're always going on about this

fight between good and

evil and it's made out to be some kind

of wild rough and tumbled battle to the

end between two Champion

equals a great

fight I suppose they make it out that

way so it'll be more

interesting but evil is a giant good is

when evil takes a

rest good is a rest

period there's no

fight listen to me gunning

H I saw you look at that

woman I saw the

woman I can be a part of

it I can be a part of it but it's just

the first part of it

murder is like going through a

barrier or a tunnel or or to the other

side once you've gone through it you're

past

it nothing could make me go again

but there's no one in the world you

couldn't Force to do

it for hate for love for self-defense

for money

country something somewhere there's no

one but I'll never

again for any

reason I know

that not even to Def defend

yourself

no your

wife

no

your

grandchildren

no you don't believe

me no there's never been that long a

rest period for any man who's ever lived

no

one ah yes there has

I've had 15

years unbelievably

beautiful

perfect I'm an old man I'm saying old

man

things I'm

sorry I tell you what I'm going to do

I'm going to make it easy for you

what I said I uh I'm not

sure so you'd better be on your guard

Cunningham because it's a it's a

day-to-day thing isn't

it and I've just been setting you up all

this time hav't

I you know I used to be pretty good at

it probably better than

you probably I I'm still better than

you

I see at the

house of course you never know what'll

happen until it actually

happens no no I'm sure once you're done

with it you're done with it the answer

is perfectly

clear not even for them could

I I guess anybody think I didn't love

them

enough

Carson there's never been that long a

rest period in the history of the

world it's

[Music]

impossible

[Music]

question

is we murdered enough to get past it

and get it overwear what do you want me

to do go out and buy a gun stick it in

gypsy

[Applause]

[Music]

go sure you got enough room Ramy I'm

positive it's nice to see a man who's

positive about anything these days

why do you want to listen to the radio

on such a beautiful day no he cannot

accept the fact this world may come to

an end without Assurance from Radio

Frankfurt the world in Maurice is only

just beginning all we need do is to look

back on the things we once believed in

when we were young and strong and then

everything will be all right you know

Adan with a possible exception of you m

Tong and a few Republicans in my country

nobody in the world believes

[Music]

that straining for every scrap of

News why don't you give up these mere

facts what should I stress it fiction

fiction is much better for people EVN

remember how acious for used to be about

novels in the old days I stopped reading

fiction when I could no longer identify

with a young

lover

these roads in Spain were built for 60

km an

hour after that it becomes

hazardous Mr

Cunningham these Spanish roads are not

like your American roads you can't

anticipate

[Music]

K what's the matter with you speing on a

look like this is

insane there's no

guarantee it's sloppy very slopp Cy

speeding like

this anything can happen or not happen

or half

happen this is Spain

Cunningham not

[Music]

Dixie

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

what happened why didn't

you I just went through the motion

of not ah you could have got rid of all

of us it's perfect everyone who knew

could connect you but you were

free

Dare it's a moment to moment

thing be damn

what it's obsolete Ramy what murder

murder is obsolete maybe you I'm an

oldfashioned man with some oldfashioned

Debs why don't you write me a letter

when death is obsolete it's all obsolete

obsolete how do you think bitching got

so

big

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

I couldn't be

sure I'd get out of lie where that any

of you no it doesn't make any difference

you know what reasons you give yourself

for stopping just so long as you

stop you'll be making up different

reasons as you go along three opposite

ones a

day all

valid doesn't

[Applause]

matter

[Applause]

what's happening what are they all doing

to both

honor the newly married couple and make

sure that they get started in the right

direction why they as well as other

couples who wish to join them run away

you see to be alone to find a private

place to uh laugh and cry and make love

together because to cry and make love

together is as close to as you can get

oh

how and now what we Elders are supposed

to do is to get into those wagons and

follow after them because you see

marriage to attain Grace must always be

lived as if it would be found out and

[Applause]

broken come on let's make a run for

[Applause]
