THE PUBLIC MENACE.

"Red" Foster (George Murphy) and other reporters board an ocean liner arriving from Europe. Cassie (Jean Arthur), the ship's manicurist, is homesick for America, but has somehow become a Greek citizen and not American. She tells Red that she has a suicide note that reveals that man held by the police for a sensational murder is innocent and names the true killer. However, she will only give it to him if he marries her and makes her an American citizen again. Afterward, he learns she has lied; the note is merely a letter of recommendation.
