| SYNOPSIS: A strike is imminent
at the Sleep-Tite Pajama Factory. The Union is seeking a wage
rise of seven and a half cents an hour. Sid and Babe are in opposite
camps yet a romance is born between them. At first Babe rejects
him and Sid is forced to confide his feelings to a dictaphone.
During the picnic for the factory workers he makes better progress
but their estrangement is reinforced when they return to the
factory. A go-slow is staged by the Union, strongly supported
by Babe. Sid, as factory superintendent, demands an 'honest day's
work' and threatens to fire slackers. Babe is enraged by his
attitude and kicks her foot into the machinery, causes a general
breakdown and is immediately fired by Sid. Hines, the popular
efficiency expert, is in love with Gladys the President's secretary.
Periodically, he brings a more optimistic outlook to the life
of the factory. Becoming convinced that Babe's championship of
the Union is justified, Sid simulates an interest in Gladys by
taking her out for the evening to the night club, Hernando's
Hideaway. Through her help he is eventually able to gain access
to the firm's books and discovers that the boss has been adding
to his price the pay increase demanded by the workers. Sid then
brings about his boss, Hasler's, consent to a pay rise and is
able to bring peace to the factory and to his love life. Everyone
goes out to celebrate - at Hernando's Hideaway. |
