“Grand Jury Secrets”
Conflict between two brothers, one a newspaperman, the other an assistant dsitrict attorney, as to just how secret a grand jury probe should be, and additional differences over a young lady in whom both are interested provide the dramatic motivation for the punch-packed Paramount drama, “Grand Jury Secrets.” With John Howard cast as the newspaperman, Gail Patrick as the young lady in question, and Harvey Stephens as the assistant district attorney, the story starts rolling as Howard attempts to get the facts on a grand-jury probe which his brother is conducting. He is blocked for a while, but by the clever use of a compact short-wave radio, he steals the story and publishes it. His methods eventually lead him into danger—and the story progresses to a dramatic conclusion. The cast also includes William Frawley, Jane Darwell and Porter Hall. James Hogan directed.
