A story of speed and pep "Over Here"

In this propaganda film, athletic silent star George Walsh plays reporter Jack Bartlett, who interviews President Wilson regarding the Fourth Liberty Loan.

In the midst of his vigorous campaigning he also halts Crumley's plans to inspire a strike at a munitions plant.Read moreLess
