Description by OLDIES.com:

Judge Avery's daughter Viola (Ester Ralston) is arrested in a police raid on Chinatown's most notorious gambling casino. Facing public disgrace and her father's anger, Viola romances immigration officer Bob Baxter (Regis Toomey) who provides an alibi for her. Baxter is drawn to Viola but also sees her as a source of information about the casino boss's white slavery ring.

As Baxter's attention becomes clouded with infatuation, Viola must keep the inquisitive detective at bay. Owning a debt of silence to the casino's owner, King Moss (Sidney Blackmer), Viola finds herself ensnared in a dark web of Western intrigue and Oriental crime. Growing feelings for Baxter drive Viola into danger and she is kidnapped as a pawn in Moss's elaborate underworld scheme.

Waste of money Movie Lover: from MIDDLE VILLAGE, NY US -- March, 22, 2011

Between the poor quality of the DVD (it skips and mumps) and the acting, I can think of better ways of spending your money. Regis Toomey has a parpetual sneer, Sidney Blackmer is sleezt, even the leading lady. Ester Ralton, leaves a lot to be desired. Once again, the stars for me in this movie were those biplanes!
