The Eagle's Wings (1916)

Senator Wright and foundry foreman Richard Wallace lobby hard in Washington for passage of a war preparedness bill, which Congress finally enacts. Foreign spies Keron Theris and Orlin Dagore tell their governments that it will be at least two years before the United States is ready to fight, though, thus guaranteeing the success of an immediate invasion. Richard, however, called in by the president, presents him with a plan through which American industry could arm the country almost instantly. The president puts the plan into action, and Theris and Dagore quickly revise their opinion and warn their governments against an invasion of the United States.
