An interesting Frank Capra-influenced (MR. SMITH GOES TO WASHINGTON) oater, this has Autry cast as a congressman exposing a politician who is holding up a flood control bill. The Washington politico plans to buy up large quantities of land and then sell them for a big profit after the bill
is passed. Republic took a chance with this one--and failed, but at least they tried. Songs include: "Paradise in the Moonlight" (Gene Autry, Fred Rose) and "Ole Peaceful River" (Johnny Marvin).
