- "Gene Autry must stop a crooked mine foreman from stealing from the owners."@en
- ""When a young radio commentator fakes Gene Autry's voice on her show telling cattlemen to invest their money in a hydraulic mining venture rather than in cattle, Gene must correct the error of her ways. Further investigation by Gene and his pal Smiley Burnette soon reveals dishonesty and treachery in the mining operation. It will take plenty of songs, and some riding and fisticuffs, to expose the villains and save the day!"--Container."@en
- ""Influential cattleman Gene Autry opposes the Rawhide Hydraulic Mining Company, and warns his fellow ranchers not to invest in it, for there have been many local mines that have not prospered. Nancy Drew, who runs a radio station that features a show sponsored by the Mining Co., pesters Gene for his endorsement, but he continues to be unimpressed. The other ranchers are interested, however, especially when the mine is promoted by the packing company manager, Nancy's brother Jeff. Jeff is desperate for their support, because, as he confesses to Nancy, he has embezzled the cattlemen's association payment to the packing company to keep the mine going. If the mine stops production, then the Atlas Equipment Company, which has provided the necessary gear, will take possession of the mine. Wanting to help her brother, Nancy prevents Gene from attending a party at which Jeff tries to persuade the ranchers to buy mining company stock. Nancy further angers Gene when she edits and broadcasts a conversation they had about cattle stock to make it seem as if Gene is endorsing mining stock. Determined to confront Nancy, Gene and his pal, Frog Millhouse, go looking for her. Instead they find three thugs who have just robbed Nancy and mine foreman Dan Pearson of the payroll. Nancy and Pearson soon arrive, and Nancy offers to show Gene the mine to prove that it is a good investment, while Pearson says that he will take the robbers to jail. Unknown to the Drews, Pearson owns Atlas Equipment Company and wants the mine to fail under Jeff's administration so that he will then become the owner. Pearson had hired the thugs to steal the payroll in the hope that the unpaid miners would walk off the job. Gene is suspicious when Pearson, who lets the men go, claims that they escaped, but nonetheless begins pitching the mine to the ranchers by assuring them that he, too, is investing in it. Still determined to sabotage Gene and the Drews, Pearson orders his men to empty the dam supplying the power for the hydraulic equipment, then tells Nancy that the water has dried up. Without Nancy seeing, Pearson switches on the microphone in her radio studio, so that the whole town hears as he asserts that he warned Gene that the water would dry up, but that Gene wanted to sell the stock anyway for his own profit. Angry that they have been double-crossed, Nancy and the townspeople confront Gene, who proclaims his innocence. With Frog's help, Gene blows up an abandoned, water-logged mine to provide the necessary water for the dam. He also obtains a confession from one of Pearson's men that Pearson was behind the sabotage. Soon after, the mine is fully operational, and Gene and Frog broadcast a show from Nancy's radio station"--AFI catalog, 1941-1950."
