Murder in the Fleet (1935)





Taylor is cast as Lt. Tom Randolph, one of several naval officers confined to his ship when a murder occurs. The victim was in the process of delivering the components for a new electrical fire-control device, thus everyone concerned is suspected of being a killer, or a foreign agent, or both.
