The story

Stewart "Stew" Smith, ace reporter for the Post, is assigned to get the story about the latest escapade of playboy Michael Schuyler, a breach of promise suit by chorus girl Gloria Golden, who has been paid to drop it. Unlike rival Daily Tribune reporter Bingy Baker, he turns down a $50 bribe from Dexter Grayson, the Schuylers' lawyer, to not write anything. He does pretend to be swayed by the pleas of Anne, Michael's sister, but then brazenly calls his editor with the scoop, appalling the Schuylers.
