Johnny Jones is an action reporter on a New York newspaper. The editor appoints him European correspondent because he is fed up with the dry reports he currently gets. Jones' first assignment is to get the inside story on a secret treaty agreed between two European countries by famous diplomat Mr. Van Meer. However things don't go to plan and Jones enlists a young woman's help to track down a group of spies.
