Lum and Abner are rednecks who run a general store in Arkansas. One of them invents synthetic rubber in response to a radio program, and head off to Washington to submit it. They become park bench philosophers and offer their homespun advice to politicians. When the big day comes to present their invention, Abner gets hit on the head and develops amnesia. They go back to Arkansas to try to cure him. More dumb than funny, it would be in the running for worst Academy Award nominee ever.
