    Honolulu forms the setting for a story of the work to expose Communist activities. The picture was rushed into the market and bears evidence of that haste. Continuity is choppy, the script sketchy and lacking in clarity.

    John Wayne and James Arness are crack investigators for the House Committee on Un-American Activities. When it is learned the Communists are threatening in the islands, the pair is dispatched there to get evidence against the Red cells that can be used for a documented public hearing.

    The investigation is tedious and not too fruitful. During its course Wayne meets and falls for Nancy Olson, a secretary working for a suspected doctor (Gayne Whitman). He pursues Olson and the Commies, gradually making time on both counts.
