Access to affordable credit helps me pay my employees, but I don't really need it.
Inflation is killing me. Who cares? Big retailers and making record profits.
That's why we support the German Marshall credit card bill.
See, banks and credit unions help small businesses make payroll. This bill would cut the vital resources they need.
While increasing megastore profits, they deserve it. Don't they?

Hello? Yes, this is the Falcon speaking.
Come on, run. I love to see you tonight, Angel, but somebody took a shot at one of my clients and he's afraid it may happen again.
And you know a thing like that has become pretty monotonous, so much so that my client could get bored to death.
The adventures of the Falcon, starring Les Stamen, you met the Falcon first in his best-selling novels. Then you saw him in his thrilling motion picture series.
Now join him on the air when the Falcon solves the case of the friendly target.
It's late evening in New York when the sedan pulls up to the head of an alley and two men get out.
And now the case of the friendly target.
It's late evening in New York when the sedan pulls up to the head of an alley and two men get out.
All right, Mitch. Well, clear. Let's go. Here, Connie.
It's dark in this alley. Never mind, Mitch. Don't use the flashlight yet. We'll fight it. It's the first door. Here we are.
Where are you, Connie? I can't see. Right over here. Wait.
Oh, yeah. Allison said it's a simple lock. It won't take a minute. I'll hold a light. Work fast so we won't have to have it on long.
Okay. Can you see? Yeah, Connie. No, wait. Hey, where the other light comes from.
Oh, it's your friend. What are their hands? They don't make any other move. We had their cover.
We do the trash barrel drop behind. Okay. They get you, Mitch. No, I made it. Now what?
No, you, Connie. We've got both ends of the alley. Covered. Connie, they know your name. Yeah, it's a trap.
All right. They were waiting for us. Where'd they get that out of us? We've got to get out of here. First.
Come on out of here with your hands up. We're coming out here.
We'll have to make a room for her. You crazy, Connie. They're all around us with guns.
And with the spot on us, they see us and we can't see them.
I'm not letting them take me. Come on. Don't let that tell your room for a car.
They'll go right through their fire. They're only chance. I'll never make it.
Okay. Take your choice. They're guns or mine. What?
That's my gun in your back when I can't three. You start running right. Pull the trigger.
Oh, Connie. No. That's right. Take it, Connie.
Come on, Hunter. Come on, reaching out. We stop firing. That'll be all we need. You going, Mitch?
No, Connie. I can't. One. You go, Connie. Leave me here.
No, sure. Hit one of us alone. I'll only chance at the run at the same time. Give me a spot, Connie.
I can't, Connie. Please, hold on.
Just a second, Connie.
Three. Don't shoot, Connie. I'm going.
Oh.
You're getting a cape from Korea.
And now, for the local news, a desperate gunman and pushed by the police tonight, escaped by forcing his partner to run into a hail of police bullets.
Police cornered Ted Connie and Mitchell Harper, and the two were breaking into a midtown jewelry store.
Ordered to surrender, Connie put the gun in Harper's back, and forced Harper to run from their hiding place.
Thus diverting the police search light and gunfire for the few seconds necessary to give Connie his chance to make his get away.
Harper gave police this version of Connie's escape just before he died from injuries sustained in the shooting.
Hey, who's there?
Just me, Allison. Sorry to wake you up.
Connie.
Yeah. You ought to sleep with your windows open, Allison. The fresh air is good for you.
What do you want? Why didn't you come to the door?
Windows are for less resistance. I wanted in with no arguments.
Oh, get it. It's something going on.
It's something going on, you stooly.
Stooly? What happened? Did they get the alarm fixed?
We never had time to find out they were waiting for us.
Stay.
The law.
As if you didn't know.
I didn't know. I said, don't go.
You're going to pay for this, Allison. You're going to pay fast because your pals or cops are going to figure me to come here.
But I couldn't run off without saying good-bye.
Yeah, you got it wrong, Connie. Believe me.
It's no use, Allison. You're the one who saved me into the trap.
You know, the trap on us, not much. I didn't.
I don't have time to eye care.
Just let me explain this.
That's right. I got the dope from you.
And I got it from somebody else.
As a stooly, it's him, not me.
Sure. That's the honest truth to help me.
I thought he was on the level.
I didn't know about it.
I'd write you got it from somebody else.
Who else?
What are you going to do to him?
Who else?
I'll tell you.
Will you lay off me?
The pants. Now, who is it?
Before I...
No.
I'll talk.
I'm less than any.
It's...it's Wagon.
Frank Wagon.
Yeah?
Why don't you tell me about this when you laid out the job?
Wagon's been going straight.
They didn't want nobody to know he was selling information.
At least, that's what he told me.
If this is just a straw lousy...
No, it isn't. It isn't.
Get hold of Wagon.
Make him talk.
You'll find out.
Sure, Allison.
I intend to...
Hello. Hello, operator.
This is Mrs. Frank Wagner.
I want an ambulance.
Try to wait.
And the police.
Look.
Yes.
Wagner. W-A-G-N-E-R.
In the Horton department.
Hurry, please.
My husband's just been shot.
Yes?
Hello.
Mrs. Wagner, I'm Mike Wearing.
Oh, yes, Mr. Wearing, Kniff.
Thanks.
My husband asked me to send for you.
He wants to see you.
He was injured in the shooting about a month ago.
You may have read about it.
Yeah, I remember. Where is he?
Right down this hall. He's still in bed.
Call him to the paper. He got a close call.
He certainly did. The bullet just missed his heart.
For a while, the doctor didn't hold out much hope.
Here we are.
Frank, here's Mike Wearing.
Oh, yeah.
Come in, Wearing.
Come in.
Hello, Wagner.
So you're the fork, can you?
There's a show.
Tell me you're quite the detective.
And if I didn't, I'd get a new publicity agent.
I want you to find out who shot me.
I don't you know him.
No. Don't you have any enemies?
Can't think of any.
I'm a very likable character.
How does it happen?
Middle of the night.
I'm in bed, see.
Doorbell rings, I open the door.
Bang, like that.
I'm in a hospital with a hole in my chest.
Then you were faced to face with the person who fired the shot.
You had a flashlight trying to hit my face.
I couldn't say a thing.
Not in.
Yes, Frank.
Wisness Willis.
What do you want? I'll get it.
Wisness Willis.
I let it go. You were worried about the expense.
Yes, but I'm going to need a lot of nursing.
I don't find it.
I can handle it. Now, what do you want?
There's the water.
All right. I'll be right there.
Good kid that, Wearing.
Hey, to do this to her, but still so dark on week.
I can't move out of this bed.
Now, what, what are we talking about?
The shooting.
Oh, yes.
I didn't see who did it.
You're not giving much to go on.
All right. I'll give you something.
Well, it's a fellow named Artie Allison.
I think he knows who did the shooting.
But make sure to think that.
He called me in the hospital.
The way he talked I got the idea he knows something.
But once cashed to spill it.
All right. I'll get to Allison's.
He really knows.
Only one trouble.
Price too high.
No.
Who didn't get around talking terms?
Well, I sent a wife round to see Allison.
She disappeared.
Oh, great.
Did you find Allison?
It's ten to one.
You'll get to the boy we're looking for.
Okay. I'll go to work out of it.
Do that, Wearing.
And hurry, will you?
Last time, he missed me by a fraction of an inch.
It would be next time.
He'll hit that center.
And I'll back to the adventures of the Balkans.

I'm caught up in the game.
My attention is on every play and every whistle.
But what I'm missing is a signal coming from my kidneys.
That signal isn't like a ref's whistle.
It's more of a silent SOS which could be warning me of an increased risk for events like heart attack or stroke.
And a way I can catch that signal.
A simple urine test called UACR.
If you have type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure, talk to your doctor about the UACR test.

It's half a day since Mike Wearing went to work for Frank Wagner.
Now in a small restaurant near General Square in Jersey City,
Mike slips into a boat and smiles as a nervous little man sitting across the table from him.
Hello, Allison.
Who are you?
Mike Wearing.
How'd you know my name?
I have your picture.
I've been looking for you.
How'd you find me?
Very simple, Allison.
You're not as lost as you think you are.
Besides, I have my sources of information.
What do you want with me?
Just to find out if you're as good at answering questions as you are at asking them.
What questions?
I don't know number one.
Well, you know about the Wagner shooting.
Who says I know anything?
Wagner.
Oh.
What's he saying about me?
He said you have information about the shooting for sale.
He's lying.
Why should he?
All right.
It's true, Wearing.
I do have information.
What do I do?
Sit here while you argue it out with yourself?
I know who tried to kill Wagner.
Good. Well, it cost me.
Are you working for Wagner?
Uh-huh.
I don't get it.
What?
Just what Wagner's after.
To keep on living.
He says I can tell you who shot at him.
Is that it?
Uh-huh.
You say the same thing, so I'm waiting.
Are you sure you're working for Wagner?
Why not?
How can I be sure?
There's a phone call Wagner.
All right, all right.
You're working for Wagner.
But no, you don't.
I don't know.
Nothing.
I'll tell you, shot him.
For free?
For free.
I want to get out of this.
Okay, here's a chance to start getting him.
Who did the shooting?
Ted Conny.
Conny, huh?
Why?
Well, Conny got the idea.
Wagner put the law on him.
Where'd he get that idea?
I don't know.
He accused me when I convinced him it wasn't me.
He said I must be Wagner.
That's all I know about.
That's why I ran out.
When I heard Wagner was shot, I was sure Conny did it.
Conny knew I was sure.
So he might try to shut me up.
All right, Allison, let's go.
Go?
Where?
Home.
But of Conny, I found you here.
What makes you think Conny wants?
Hey, that's a thought.
But I don't think you have to worry about him anyway, Allison,
so you can go home.
Conny's in enough trouble.
It wouldn't be very smart of him to go looking for more.
It's right, we're in.
But what do I do if it turns out Conny isn't very smart?
Well, you found Allison.
I hope it's quick for him.
Oh, not much to it, Wagner.
I checked with missing persons.
They referred me to the robbery division.
You mean the robbery division?
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know the robbery division.
You mean the police knew everyone?
Yeah, it seems he's been astool for them.
They used him on Conny, so when Conny escaped,
they figured he might go gunning for Allison.
They said a man to cover Allison, he followed them to Jersey City.
And Allison never knew.
Well, I didn't see any reason to tell him,
but then you were to find him if they were on him.
And-
Now?
Now he's home again.
Suppose he skips out again.
Now I got a man watching his place this time.
We may need him to clinch things against Conny if we find Conny.
find Connie. When do we got the idea I'd get into the place. From Alison,
though, though, if you say Alison's a liar, I'm willing to bet he's dead Connie
to you. In turn, he came running for me. Could be. So now all we need is to find
Connie. That's what I like about working for you,
wagon. Just one goose chase after another. We're wearing. What's better for chasing
geese and a fork and. Oh, Mrs. Wagner come in. Thank you. So you left your
patient alone. You'll be all right till I get back if you need anything. There's a
phone right by the bed. Well, what can I do for you? I wanted to talk to you
without paint knowing. What about? Well, now that the nurse is gone, there's no
one at our place except Frank and me. And he completely helped us. He tried to
walk today, but he only took two steps and fell. Well, suppose Connie comes back
and tries to shoot Frank again. What could I do? I think that we ought to have a
man around the place. Don't you at least at night? Might be a good idea. I didn't
say anything to Frank. I didn't want to worry him. Well, I'll see if I can get you
someone. Someone. But I. What's the matter? Nothing. It's just that while you're
already in the case and you do have a guest room. I see. Tell me something, Mrs. Wagner.
Why don't you call me Patty now that we know each other? Do we? Well, don't we? I
feel if I'd known you all my life. I feel as though I've known you all of 20
minutes. But if you come to our place, you'll get a chance to know me better.
That's I believe. You don't like me, do you? Did I say that? You think I'm a
hero because Frank played up? He told me you're a good girl. Okay, Kim too
seriously. Mikey talks for a fact too. Will you come? To protect Frank. Well, Connie
might come back. Sure it's Connie. I thought that was said. And no, not quite.
There are a couple of things. What can you tell me about the shooting? Can you add
anything to what your husband told me? I'm afraid not. I wasn't home that night.
Oh, you're trying to guess something. No, no. Excuse me, Patty. Hello?
Well, yes, Wagner. What is it? Hey, what did he want?
How does he just phone wearing? He wanted you because he's contacting Connie.
That was where you can find him. Where? He wouldn't say over the phone. I think he wants
cash. It's not in that routine again. All right, Wagner. The right over.
How long? What is it? We're going to visit Alison. We, I have to get back to Frank. He's
alone. Maybe he's better off that way. Why do you say that?
That's mine. But if we're going to get to know each other, we might as well start by sticking
together now. What's your work so fast? Something's going on that I don't like. Here we are.
I had a man stationed across the street to see that Alison didn't leave, but he wasn't
there when we came in. What does that mean? He couldn't mean that Alison has left and
my man is tailing him. But then why would Alison send for us? I hear somebody make a real
thing down. Oh, you're wearing it. So you're not tailing him. I thought I asked you
to stay across the street, but unless Alison went out. He's off. Then what are you doing
here? Why don't you tell him? This is where he's off. He keeps. What? I heard a shot.
I came up to investigate. Somebody must have come in the back way. Alison's dead.
You want to look for yourself?
After dark already, I didn't intend to be gone this long. I hope things are all right.
Do you? Believe it or not, Mike. I don't want anything to happen to him. Then I'd
really feel guilty. And stop smiling. Was I smiling? Well, after all, I'm the one who called
the ambulance and Frank was shot. I saved his life. So forget that. You called the ambulance?
Yes. Thought you weren't home that night. I got home a little after the shooting and
found Frank on the floor. I see. Side. I meant any harm to Frank. Now would I ask you
to come along to protect him? Is that why you asked me? One of the reasons. Of course,
I do have others. Yes, so I've noticed. I think we'd get a long night once you get
over your silly suspicion. And once you get the idea that all I'm going along for is
to protect Frank. All right. Not only one thing bothers me, Angel. What's that? Who's
going to protect me?
Hey, you'll have to forgive me, Wagner. I make a habit of coming through windows,
eccentricity of mine. Connie. Yeah, Connie. I've been whole up long enough. I think it's time
for me to blow. So I thought I'd better settle with you and Allison first. Too bad you
hear all along, isn't it? I thought you'd be crazy enough to come here, Connie. Nobody did.
That's how come I'm here. Fucking up the wrong tree pile. I had nothing to do with your brush
with the law. Allison says different. Is Allison your idea of the soul of honesty? No, Wagner,
but neither are you. You've got no call to suspect me except Allison says it. You're going to
prove he was lying. How am I going to do that? That's your problem. Get Allison. Bring him here.
Face to face. I've had enough of that kind of story, Wagner. I don't know what to say.
I don't say anything. I'll settle with you just like I was sure. I'd draw what can I lose,
but your life. Oh, Connie, wait. I've waited long. Hey, somebody's coming.
Mr. Patty, this gun says you don't make a sound. I won't break everything all right.
It's right. Tell her it is. Go ahead. Yes, Patty. Everything's all right.
Good. We'll be right in. Wait. She's got somebody with her. Sounds like...
She's got a murmur. Yeah. We'll have to cover both of her. Remember you're not a sailor.
My querying tank. I thought it'd be a good eye. All it bought you.
Life's just full of little surprises. Get over next to Wagner's bed, Joe.
Don't do it, swearing. He can't watch us both and where he is.
Shut up, Wagner. Swearing. Now's your chance.
So, I, Patty, shot went into the wall. He's getting away. Now we'll see.
He's going on a fire escape. I can't follow because he's got a clear shot at me in the window.
Patty, only the door turned off the light. All right, Mark. That's better.
Can you see him?
And all the odds are my way. All right, Mr. That's far enough.
I've got a gun on you, so don't take another step.
That's the show I'm not pulling.
But stand still. The next won't be a warning.
All right. Don't shoot again.
And drop your gun. Go ahead.
Okay. You got it?
I got something. I heard it. I don't know if it was the gun.
It's too dark down there, but I'll go see.
What if he's talking?
And I'll call it. If he shoots me, we'll know he wasn't bluffing.
Don't see you later, Patty. I hope.
Now back to the adventures of the Thorken.
It's happened minutes since Mike wearing ordered Ted Conny to surrender.
And Conny went through the motions of obeying.
Now Mike approaches Conny on the fire escape.
Hoping that Conny can either fire nor escape.
That's it, fella. Just stay there.
Why can't you worry?
You must be the Thorken.
You must be Ted Conny. I've been looking for you.
I understand you're a smart cookie-wearing, son.
Maybe you'd be interested in a proposition.
I don't sell out, Conny.
Say you're not smart.
Depends on the point of view.
I can make away what you want.
I don't know dice.
I don't need that kind of money.
There's nothing I can say.
I can't think of a thing.
You'll be sorry about this, will you?
Maybe, Conny. It's not half a sorry, is you.
Let's go.
That Thorken, I'll hold him till you get here.
Bride, so long.
Oh, Conny, the police are on their way.
I heard you ask for Sergeant Corbin a homicide.
I didn't kill any body.
You tried to kill me.
That's a lie, why not?
And you did kill Alex.
I didn't.
Alison and Tim?
That's Wagner, yes.
Well, I didn't do it.
Come with something, Conny.
What?
Why did you come here?
I don't have the answer to you.
All right, Wagner will.
How about it, Wagner?
Just as you guessed, Larry.
He said Alison told him that I was the one to put the law.
So he came to finish up what he started before.
I didn't show you before.
But you were going to shoot him this time.
I was going to make him talk.
What did you do from the moment you ended this room?
Nothing.
There's only here a minute when you came.
All right, in that minute.
Nothing.
Wagner, he threatened me.
All right, now let's have it from the beginning.
From when he entered.
But I'm lying here, Vity.
And I hear a crash.
I look around.
He's coming through the window.
He has a gun.
He tells me he's been holding up long enough.
He's getting out now.
But first, he's something with Alison and me.
Oh, with Alison and you?
That's what he said.
I didn't get around to Alison.
I came here first.
But you said you were settling with Alison.
Look, Larry, you got me.
They're going to throw the book at me,
but I didn't shoot Alison.
They're not getting me for that.
Oh, we'll see, Connie.
Wagner, get up.
What?
Get up, walk across the room.
I can't.
Just from the bed to the door and back.
What's the idea?
I want to see how strong you are.
I can't walk at all without help.
I'm too weak.
Can you crawl?
I don't know, maybe.
What are you trying to prove?
Maybe you're stronger than you pretend.
Why should you pretend?
Makes a good alibi.
Hey, that's an idea.
Maybe he killed Alison and a kind of Alison sent me on.
I'm not crazy.
You think he crawled all the way to Alison?
This is ridiculous.
I haven't set foot out of this bed alone in weeks.
Call him on a werey.
Make him get off.
Make him walk.
Maybe I will, Connie.
Provided you explain one thing.
What's that?
How come you knew Alison was shot?
Huh?
Well, you said I said he was killed.
I didn't say how.
Oh, that's right, Larry.
Well, I, uh, I just figured it was part of the same deal.
Wagner was shot, so I figured if it was the same person
both times, it Alison'd be shot too.
Except you accused me.
I didn't shoot myself.
I didn't think about you until you were to what
wearing said about maybe you could walk.
That's pretty flimsy, Connie.
Oh, I wouldn't say that, Wagner.
I'll accept that explanation.
But worry has.
It's plausible enough.
So that leaves you, Wagner.
I promised Connie if he could explain, I'd ask you to walk.
I'd go ahead, walk.
I can't.
Well, I don't want to argue about it.
Long as you can walk into the car tomorrow.
Why are you serious about this?
Mike, you don't really think it's playing.
Kill Alison?
Sure.
You know, Wagner, you told me you're a friendly guy.
If I have an idea, you're going to lose your popularity
off your suddenly.
After all, you can't shoot your friends
and have them too.
I still can hardly believe it, Mike.
Why, you were already fed up with Frank.
But I never thought he'd kill him or what.
And that's where Alison knew him better than you didn't.
If you'd ordered to get off the spot with Connie,
Alison blamed Frank for tipping the police to Connie.
But Alison knew as soon as Frank heard about it,
he'd try to get even.
So Alison tried to kill him to protect himself.
But he only wounded him instead.
And Frank wanted revenge.
So he hired me to find Alison's farm.
He knew Alison did the shooting,
but he pretended not to know,
because he wanted to blame Connie.
So he could frame him for the murder.
Well, what put you on the right track?
Alison's precious when Frank said Alison
called him wanting to talk to me.
He could have called me direct.
Maybe Alison thought you were an option.
Yes, but when I wasn't, why didn't Alison call me direct?
All right, that made you suspicious.
But you certainly must have had something more
than that to make you accused.
Oh, I did.
It's lying about not being able to walk.
How did you know he was lying?
Well, he said he could walk at all,
not even from his bed to the door.
Well, it was life when you left him.
When you returned it was dark.
But Frank had been reading.
The light was on in the room,
and the light switches by the door.
I remembered because you turned the lights out of the door
when I was chasing Connie.
Right, so Frank could walk.
Uh-huh.
Well, that's all there is to it, haven't you?
Uh-huh.
And now that Frank's in jail for murder,
maybe you won't be so standoffish
as far as I'm concerned.
After all, I'm sure you'd like me
once you've gotten to know me better.
Yeah, could do.
But I've always heard that what you don't know
won't hurt you.
So, Angel Amalfrede, part of my education
will have to remain sadly neglected.
Uh-huh.
We hope.
