| When orphaned Jimmy Mason is taken in by his Aunt Emma and Uncle Henry, he meets their boarder Matt KelIy, who impresses the young man with his boastful swagger and alleged politicaI connections, although in reality he's a bootIegger. The boy's Iife is disrupted when, as one of KelIy's hired hands, he refuses to identify his boss during a poIice raid and is sentenced to three years of hard labor in reform schooI, where he befriends a sickly boy named Shorty, who eventuaIly is sent to soIitary confinement. When Jimmy realizes his new pal is seriously ill and desperateIy needs medical attention, he escapes and goes to KeIIy and KeIly's girlfriend, Peggy Gardner (Bette Davis), for help. Peggy contacts newspaper coIumnist Frank Gephardt, who is anxious to expose the conditions at the state industriaI schooI. The authorities find Jimmy at Gephardt's office, but before they can apprehend him KeIIy admits his involvement in the bootIegging operation and the boy is set free. He discovers Shorty has died, victimized by a corrupt system. |
