Plot
Jimmy Williams (Don Terry) grows up in the congested tenement district by New York’s East River docks. His father, Russ Williams (Anders Randolf), is a master stevedore and a man of influence among the dockworkers, but he can never quite master his son’s rebellious spirit. As Russ rises in political circles, Jimmy falls in with bad company. Idleness and resentment push Jimmy toward crime, and with his friend Danny (Al Hill), he commits a robbery, managing to evade the police.
