Synopsis:
Dollar Dan, a notorious racketeer, has the police afraid to arrest him. Whenever a cop arrests one of his men, Dan fabricates evidence which gets them thrown off the police force.

Percival Popp decides to stand up against Dan after the Spectre brings in some of his men. When Dan learns this, he frames Popp for a bank robbery with a film. Popp is then arrested.

The Spectre tracks down the crook who made the film. He also recovers the original films that will clear several other cops of phony charges. After presenting the new evidence to the commissioner, Popp is released. The cops then raid Dan's office and with the help of the Spectre, they arrest him.
