...Streets of Shanghai. Not in years has a truckload of U. S. Marines dashed so madly over rough Chinese roads to save the honor of a pretty American missionary, lured to a mandarin's den. Heavy with leers, threats, murders and stabbings, the dolorous drama follows Pauline Starke as the girl who loves Marine Kenneth Harlan, who is in turn loved by wicked Margaret Livingston.
