The Tougher They Come

Synopsis

Lumberjack Joe MacKinley (Preston Foster) inherits a valuable tract of forestland which is coveted by a large lumber company. He and his new bride, Helen (Kay Buckley), start a logging operation but quickly run into trouble because of a series of sabotage events, staged to look like accidents by their foreman, Gus Williams (William Bishop), who is working for the lumber combine. Joe is nearly broke and about to sell out cheaply when an old friend, Bill Shaw (Wayne Morris), comes to his rescue as a partner. To force the partners to sell, Williams starts a forest fire.
