An underworld newspaper known as the Daily Crime is publishing advice for criminals. The Crimson Avenger learns that the newspaper is looking for reporters, so he applies for the job disguised as Chicago Al. He earns the job and is assigned to take photos for some upcoming crimes. After the photos are published, the crooks strike, but the Crimson Avenger is on hand to apprehend them.

When the Avenger returns to the newspaper office, his disguise is discovered. He is captured, but Wing helps him escape. He then apprehends the newspaper staff. Finally he publishes a story in the newspaper luring the Daily Crime readers into a trap. The Avenger and the police are there to arrest the crooks when they arrive.
