Synopsis
When the United States Army selects a piece of ranch land out West on which to build an air base, the local ranchers, led by Gabby Whittaker, refuse to sell their land to the government. To sway the ranchers, the government dispatches Gene, an army attache who in civilian life was a rancher. Gene soon discovers that the ranchers' refusal to sell their land benefits borax mine magnate Stevenson, who wants more money than the government is offering for his mine. To make sure that the ranchers will never sell their land to the army, Stevenson and his men embark upon a plan of sabotage that makes it appear that the army fliers are employing ruthless tactics to force the ranchers into selling. Stevenson's covert agitation finally drives the ranchers to armed resistance when Gabby's nephew Jimmy is killed in an explosion. As the ranchers prepare to barricade the town, Gene rides to the rescue with proof that Stevenson was responsible for the explosion and all the rest of the treachery. Incensed, the ranchers, led by Gene in an armored truck, ride to the borax mine, where they bring Stevenson and his gang to justice.
