Synopsis
When Jimmy Duncan, a struggling playwright, returns home on a freight train, his father, Rev. John Duncan, is ashamed to receive him, and the town officials, most of whom are corrupt, treat him coldly. Only David Landis, the editor of a newspaper dedicated to the eradication of corruption in Warchester, and his daughter Carol treat him with kindness and respect. Jimmy leaves town and becomes a famous playwright under an assumed name, while Carol becomes the toast of the New York stage. When Landis dies, Carol returns home and learns that her father has willed the Chronicle to Jimmy, who uses it to expose the gangsters and rout them out of office. Carol discovers that Jimmy wrote the play that made her a star and accepts his proposal of marriage.
