STORY Because of his thorough mechanical knowledge and his ability to handle men, Chris Bennett (Barton MacLane), is promoted from foreman of the Balding Steel Company to general manager. This is a blow to Tanahill (John Eldredge), assistant general manager, who had expected the position. With Vida (Mary Astor), hie secretary, he plots Bennett’s downfall. When Chris tells his plain, homeloving wife, Bessie (Dorothy Peterson) of his promotion she is not so elated as he feels she should be. She is content with the sphere in which she has been living and with her friends among the women. Uncertain as to how he should act in his new position, Chris accepts the preferred tutelage of Tanahill, and the latter fills his head with grandiose ideas. He becomes a member of a country club and builds a new and pretentious home. Chris is beginning to lose the confidence of his men who think he has gone high hat. He also leaves too much detail to the inefficient and scheming Tanahill and things at the plant are not going so well. But he regains the esteem of the men for a time by saving the factory from being blown up and} rescuing one of the workmen from death. Promoted to vice president, Chris unwittingly lends cooperation to the manipulations of Tanahill and again estranges his men. He not only neglects his actual duties but raises the standard of living to a grand scale to the amused contempt of his new associates of the higher social strata.

Informed of the trouble, Chris leaves his party and, in his ill-fitting evening clothes, stalks into the midst of a crowd of workers who are planning an attack on the factory. He tries to tell them the order was unauthorized, but they won’t believe him. He is attacked by the men and is being beaten unmercifully when rescued by a police riot squad. Sobered by the affray and the near murder of Chris, the men learn that Tanahill was solely responsible for the order, and in their remorse reaffirm their old loyalty.
