Like most northern towns, Furness urgently needs new factories to provide jobs and opportunities. When an American Trade Delegation comes to look over Furness as a possible site for a new plant, the red carpet is laid out in no uncertain fashion. But what happens when the pretty teenage daughter of the industrialist is accused of a petty crime? Do you try to hush the matter up, hoping it didn't really happen, or do you make an international issue out of it? And what happens to the new project either way?
