Everyone has heard about. these special Agents. Everyone knows how they have used the In- come tax lawa to fall arch criminals whosa
wealth, political influence and cunning made them Immune to local | and state laws. But few outside of the inner Government eireles know how they operated, the dangers they faced, and the daring they used to track down the criminals, disclos their hidden hordes of gold and land them behind prison bara. George Brent, in the role of a newspaper reporter, falls in love with Bette
Davis, who plays the confidential secretary of a super crook, and be tween them they finally get tho evidence which fands the "Killers" behind the bars. Never has. Misa Davis had a part more sulted to her talents, and she plays with excop- tional skill the rolź of a girl trying to help the government and at the same time in deadly fear of her life which she known will be forfeited if the criminais find her out. Ricardo Cortez is again the villain. The part is tailor-made for him, being that of Mess, but cool, resourceful and criminal. I portrays the character with his usual sangtroid. William Keighley has given the pro- duction fire and speed by his excep- tional direction.
