cor-nipt detective has been in the pay of the underworld for yean Hie picture opens at the point where his kid brother a rookie policeman refuse! to accept his advice and allow himself to be bought off before testifying in murder trial The older toother tries every means in his power to keep the upright youngster from tangling with the underworld and the script is original enough to give the story one or two unexpected turns including the handling of the romantic situation THE ending is too routine to 1 climax what baa gone before but the general atmosphere and some of tho characterizations are sufficiently good to give the picturo a convincing flavor Kobert Taylor though not by any meins the world best screen set nr does rather well in the role of the luxury-loving
