production, now running at the

With a theme which no - pro

has found opportunity for some
of . the ; most tellingly dramatic
situations ever filmed. f
One of the big thrillers of the
production is the fight between a
group of h'-Jackers and the crew
of a rum-runner. The pirates and
smugglers of olden days were no
more picturesque than the smug
glers of "contraband liquor .' of the
