Stranded in a small town in a downpour, the manager of a traveling musical show (Fred Allen) convinces the handlers of a boring long-winded local judge running for governor (Raymond Walburn) to hire his group to attract people to the politician's rallies. When the show's crooner, Eric Land (Dick Powell), upstages the Judge, he's fired, but on a return visit he saves the day by standing in for the Judge, who is too drunk to speak. Impressed by his poise, the party's bosses ask Eric to take over as candidate, and the singer, knowing he has no chance to win, agrees for the exposure and the radio airtime in which he can showcase his singing. Soon, though, his girlfriend Sally (Ann Dvorak) becomes annoyed at the amount of time Eric is spending with the wife of one of the bosses, and she leaves when she thinks he has lied to her. When the bosses ask Eric to agree to patronage appointments that will lead to easy graft for all of them, he exposes them on the radio, telling the voters that voting for him would be a huge mistake and urging them to vote for his opponent. At the end Eric is, of course, elected governor, and re-united with Sally.

En 1780 à Frankfort, en Prusse, le jeune Nathan Rothschild prévient ses parents, Amschel et Guttle, que le fisc viendra. Ils se dépêchent et cachent leurs richesses, y compris la monnaie, l'argent, etc. Le fisc exige 20.000 gulden , une somme exorbitante, mais accepte un pot-de-vin de 5000 en échange de l'évaluation de 2000 en taxes. La satisfaction de Nathan est de courte durée, cependant; un courrier lui apportant 10.000 gulden est intercepté et l'argent confisqué par les impôts. Nathan dit à ses fils qu'il essaie d'être aussi honnête que possible, mais les autorités antisémites ne le laisseront pas faire ; il exhorte ses enfants à acquérir de l'argent, car «l'argent c'est le pouvoir» et une défense pour leur peuple.
