Synopsis:
Congo Bill takes a job as a guide in the African jungle. He leads a man named Condon to the Utangi Gap, then his client tries to kill him. Bill survives being pushed into the canyon, then tracks down Condon. The man is part of a kidnapping operation in which the crooks drug their victims and hide them in the jungle. Congo Bill rescues steel magnate Cecil Vander and apprehends the kidnappers. Vander rewards Bill with a check which will allow him to continue his work in Africa with Professor Kent.
