Too Busy to Work
DirectorOtto Brower
“Cornerstones! Committees! Little theatres! "Screwball" country cousins! The Joneses have never been so upside down. How would YOU like to have a "screwball" Joan Davis move in on you? Well, that's how the Jonses feel, too.”
The Jones family females decide to teach Father a lesson. He's neglecting the family business to run for mayor, so they decide to neglect their household chores.
