The story

Brad Braden is the general manager of the world's largest railroad circus. The show's board of directors wants a short 10-week season rather than risking losing money in a postwar economy. Brad bargains to keep the circus on the road as long as it is profitable, keeping the 1,400 performers and staff employed.
