Sergeant Gene Autry, formerly a rancher, pretends to quit the Army to persuade stubborn farmers to sell their land for a military proving ground. Gene discovers that unscrupulous men who own a borax mine are keeping the ranchers stirred up with hopes that the government will grow weary of the dealings and pay a much higher price to the mine owners for their land.
