Opis filmu

Opis oryginalny: angielski

Silas Wilson, owner of the Wilson Iron Foundries, is suddenly brought to a realization of the fact that his business is fast being run to the ground, and that he cannot hope to longer compete with the newer foundries unless he makes radical changes in his methods and employers. His workmen have grown old and antiquated in his employ and he hates to turn them out, but can see no other remedy in sight. Through the influence of his daughter, the general managership is passed over to her fiancé, one Jack Berry, a young man, well trained in the school of modern methods. He is given carte blanche and told to reorganize the business. His first act, as manager, is to issue a notice discharging all of the old-timers. He sends for a number of new and younger men to fill their places. This action incurs for him the enmity of the discharged workers who resolve to get him. Jessie is torn between two fires. Her sympathies are with the old employees, but she is engaged to Jack
