“Another riproaring comedy of the Sweeney series, in which the hod carrier dreams he is elected president. A good long laugh and then a roar.”
While many men think they can manage a hotel, a theater, or a newspaper, they are in the minority compared with those low-browed addle-pates who believe they could run the government.
