Matt Cvetic is the son of slovene immigrants and a member of the Communist Party, which names him head of the Pittsburg district. After a fight at school with some boys who accuse his father of being a Communist, Dick runs home to ask Matt if what they say is true. The answer is affirmative and the son rejects his father.
