He Hails From Missouri... But His Heart's As Big As The U.S.A.!
The state of Missouri enjoys a boon when the British war office boosts the mule market with huge contracts. Following the boon, however, the Missouri mule farmers suffer a depression, at the height of which bank director "Sweeney" Bliss is offered only ten dollars for his prize mule, Samson. In an effort to save the local farms, Sweeney forbids the farmers to sell their mules at such low prices and agrees to keep them at his ranch. That night, in the middle of Sweeney's wife Julie's party, a British couple, the Arthurs, are forced to land their plane in the Blisses' field, where they get stuck in the mud. Sweeney proudly pulls the plane out of the mud using Samson and gives the Arthurs their first taste of "real" America. Julie's sister, Lola Pike, meanwhile, dances with her sweetheart, Joel Streight, who has learned that Captain Brooks-Bowen of the British Embassy will be at the upcoming stock show in Kansas City to appraise the mules. During the party, Sweeney flies off with Samson to the fair, and Joel drives Julie and Lola to meet them. Brooks-Bowen, impressed when Samson unofficially breaks the world record for pulling weight, invites the Blisses to dinner, and Julie is sure the captain has his eyes on Lola. Also at the fair is American tractor magnate George Rowe, who is determined to thwart Sweeney's efforts. Brooks-Bowen invites Sweeney to London to act as representative of the American mule market. Because of a livestock quarantine, Sweeney and Samson must stay behind, while Julie and Lola travel to England on
