In Ticu of the last threat they tore down a Haitian flag from his porch. Matin, a pro-Borno paper here, which learned of the riot, said that Beauhorinais culogized the United States only as a prelude to a final declaration that American occupa- tion was ruining the country, and a demand for “liberty.” The paper hinted today that the United States was 4 \ith the *revolution.” - NATIONS CONSIDER STATUS OF WOMEN Rochester Conference at Hague Studies| ~ Lawson Alien Marriage The Hague, March 13 (UP)~—Vic- tually ev important nation of the world, including the United States, varticipated today in lhe openiny of the first international conference for the codification of international luw.

Policewoman Pearl A. Lanham, who two weeks ago donned a uniform so she could add her salary to that of her husband and make a better home for their five children, was killed yester- day by an automobile. Her post was the street crossing in front of the Glen Park school. Her duty was to escort the school children safely across. She had just marshaled 12 lit- tle charges across the street and was returning to guide another group when the automobile struck her. More than 100 pupils of the school screamed as they saw her flung 80 feet down the pavement. John Nicholas of Griffith, Ind., the driver, said he was unable to stop. He was held. EXPECT DECISION INMOONEY'S CASE Pardon Application Leads to Re-| view of Bombing Affair By MAII STERN San Francisco, March 13—Hear ve, hear ye, hear ye! The case of Thomas Mooney and Warren Bill- ings against the state of California. A strange and famous case is this. Its bare outlines are known in every ccrner of the globe. Three gover- nors have been importuned, a presi- dent has intervened and protest meetings and sympathy strikes have been held in far-away lands. Few are there who do not know that two labor leaders, Mooney and Billings, have served 14 yecars as felons on perjured testimony. Yet few know the complete sequence of fantastic events in this case. Of Humble Family Mooney and Billings were work- ingmen and union agitators. Mooney was born in Chicago of an humble famil. He grew up as a molder and as a youth was an ardent sociai- ist. After working in the east came to California in 1906. In 1993 he was on the ed special,” the train in which Eugene Debs tourel the country in his campaign for president. Billings same of an upper mid- dle class family in Brooklyn. e graduated from high school there, and the itch for adventure brought him to California. He “hoboed” his way from St. Louis to San Francis- co where he took up his trade as shoe-worker and This avocation as union organizer. During an electri- cians’ strike in Oakland, Billings was arrested for possessing dynamits, convicted and sent to Folsom pe tentiary, After 18 months he was freed, maintaining that the expi sive had been “planted” in his sui case. Active in his conviction wis the late Martin Swanson, private detective for the Pacific Gas anli Electric Company The year 1916 climaxed a decale of intense industrial and political warfare in fan Francisco. T'ie “graft prosecution” following the 1506 earthquake had stirred the city’'s hatreds to their depths. Prosecutor Francis J. Heney. “scourge of the grafters,” had becn 50 he shot, thwarted in his drive for ths higher-ups,” and finally district attorney defeat=d by Charles AL ckert, the corporation candidate. Fickert had dismissed all indict- ments against the igher-up; Numerous strikes occurred. Business had organzied the law and order committee and had raised an $500,000 fund to put over the “open shop.” Mooney, the irrepres- sible, had “‘pulled’ an abortive strike of platform men against the strest railway compan An electrical tower of the Sierra Light and Pow- er Company nad been dynamited. The coming preparedness parade denounced by pacifists as an at- tempt “to Pru nize America,” was under boycott by union labor. Bat- tle-lines were drawn, the atmos- phere was surcharged with class- feeling and passion. On July 22 at 2: 6 p. m. there was an explosion at Steuart andi Market streets among a crowd c¢f onlookers as the parade passed. ine persons were killed and 49 injured. Paraders Warned in Advance Threatening notes had been sent to newspapers, 1o union labor leaders a week before the parade warning them not to sun- port the demonstration or march. No attempt was made to trace these anonymous notes.

Before nightfall Swan- son was placed in charge of the “in- vestigation. By the end of four days the Swanson-Fickert dragn:t had booked on murder charges Mooney and his wife, Rena, a must teacher; Billings; I2d Nolan, pres dent-elect of Machinists’ Lodge 6 Isracl Weinberg, jitney-bus driver and friend of the Mooneys. It was the prosecution's “theory” that the quintet had driven down Marget street from 721 Market n ‘Weinberg's jitney, that Mooney aad Billings had gotten out, planted in the crowd the suitcase in which was a time bomb, and disappeared. Mooney was tried and sentenced to hang. ILven in 1918 the suspi- cion of the innocence was so great that a mediation commission name.l by President Wilson and headed b cretary of Labor William B. Wil- son prevailed upon Governor St: phens to retry him or at least coni- mute his sentence to life. Stephens took the latter course. Billings was sentenced to life at Folsom. His prosecutor was Fick ert's chief deputy, James Brenna who refused to go on with the case if he were forced to ask for a han ing verdict and who since has ad- mitted that had he sat as a juror he never would have rendered a guilty verdict. Mrs. Mooney quitted although the testimony against her substantially was the same as that against Billings. Nolan, after being held in jail for nine months, was released with- out trial. Weinberg was tried and acquittel after the jury dcliberated three min- utes. was tried and ac- Conflicting Witnesses Billings, being an ex-convict ani hence easier of conviction, came to trial first. The chicf prosecutioa witness was Estelle Smith, “southern belle,” who later turned out to have been a lady with a record of numer- ous arrests in Los Angeles. She sail she had scen “this gentleman Mr. Billings” with a suitcase leaving the roof of an office building in which she worked at 721 Market street at nne minutes to two. Another prose- cution witness was John McDonald, who testified he saw Billings at the scene of the crime, a mile away, at exactly at this time. His testimony at Mooney's trial flatl contradicted that at Billings' trial and later he confessed he had never seen either until they were i the jail cells. Other Billings witnesses were the Jideau women, Mellie and her daughter Sadie, seamstresses in Oakland. Having boasted they had seen two men plant the bomb, they were brought to the San Franciszo Jail to identify Mooney and Billinge. Sceing them, Mrs. Edeau deni they were the men she saw, “Not ing like the fellows I saw,” she de- clared. In spite of this failure to identify, on record on the Oalkland police blotter, they were brought back to San Francisco and there coached by the prosecution. Their testimony was so conflicting and selt-incriminating that it was promptly impeached. Mrs. Edeaua was dropped as a witness and her daughter made to take her place When she had placed herself in {wo spots at once she replied that it wis her “astral body” that had been at one place. She confessed her fran- dulent identification to Chict Petes- sen of Oakland. When accus:i of wanton fraud by a fellow-er- ploye, she replied: “What differen:e dees it make if you get paid for . They are only working pcople anl there are too many working peopic now.” Alibi Nearly Perfect Astounding as was the Billings trial, the Mooney trial was even more so. The Mooneys had an a!- most perfect ali More than x0 persons have since said they saw them during the parade on the roof of the Eiler's building, a mile anl a quarter from the scene of the ex- plosion. Photographs taken of the parade showed Tom and Rena Mooney leaning over the edge of ke building. A great street clock across the street showed in these photos that the time was 2:01 p. m.—just five minutes before the explosion, us other witnesses claimed. How they could have been here, at 721 Mar- ket street, with Billings, and at the scene of the crime far down at t foot of Market street, all within fi minutes, never has been explained. Here also enters a new star in the Iickert case. He is Frank C. Ox- man, hailed as *an honest cattls- man” from Oregon and welcom: as the one unimpeachable witness against the labcrites Judge Franklin Griffin, before whom Mooney was tried; Inspectors Matheson and Goff, and jurymen, all say today that without Oxman and McDonall, Mooney never would have been con- victed. Oxman said he saw the dz- fendant plant the suitcase acro=s the strect from where he stood. Since then it has been proved he was in Woodland, 90 miles to thy north, waiting for the 2:15 trais when the bomb exploded. He /- rived in n Francisco at . It was several years after Mooney had been sent on his way to the gai- lows that F. E. Rigall, poolroom operator in Grayville, Illinois, ra- vealed a letter from Oxman urging him to come to San Francisco to b2 an “expert witness” in corroboration of his, Oxman’s, claim to have been there when the bomb exploded. “You will only hafto answer thre: or four questions,” he wrote, ““and I will Post you on them. You will only hafto say vou seen me in San Frico on July , and that will ce easy dun.” Much was made of mileage and reward. Rigall came. He was wined, dined and coached but after seeing the plot at close range, he quietly took the train back to Grayville the day before the Rena Mooney trial. Oxman was arrested for suborni- tion of perjury in connection witi the Rigall letter, but was freed after a farce trial. Confesses “Framing” this was more than a dozen ago. Since then Patrolnin Draper Hand, Fickert aide, his cenfessed he framed and c witnesses. ickert's chief assistan:. Brennan, has resigned, and confess- cd he was blinded by prejudice. U. 8.

The charges are “fram:- up” justice, ilagrant misuse of the courts, perjured testimony, uncqual administration of the law. 4,000 WALK 0UT Dress and Cloak Workers Break Ol Negotiations Boston, March 13 (UP) Ap- malkers walked out here today in a general strike. The walkout was called force demands of International Ladies’ Garment Workers' union for a five-day week of 40 hours, an increase in wages, and abolition of alleged sweatshop conditions. Union leaders declared they pected the strike paralyze the industry.” The strike order was issued at a meeting of the joint board last night when union leaders announced that negotiations with the manufacturers had been broken off. In issuing the order, strike leaders cautioned union members to conduct the strike along peaceful I'nes. According to union officials, em- ployes of closed skops receive from $20 to $40 a -week, but workers in sone of the non-union factories recetve only about $12 weekly. While the amounts of the demanded increases in pay vary in the various crafts, union leaders estimated that the proposed increases would aver- age about 10 per cent. Aside from the major demands the union is seeking the creation of an employment insurance fund and the selection of an “impartial chairman” to settle disputes.

IF A MAN IS WITHOUT MONEY TEMPORARILY . . . must he pay a dollar for fifty cents worth of merchandise? Is it fair to penalize a buyer so severely—simply because the ac- commodation is temporarily a necessity? Credit should not be a weapon— in the hands of those who have the power to give this credit. The family that buys necessities —though they cannot pay at once in cash—deserves as much con- sideration—as fair a price—as the buyer of luxuries. When you buy an automobile you don’t pay cash—it’s on a time payment plan. Yet the total of the time payment price is very little more than the cash price. The same applies to other luxur- ies—radios, refrigerators and so forth. : If it can be done with luxuries —with a reasonable handling charge for financing—why not dresses, suits, coats, shoes, stock- ings? Merchandise of standard names, of real quality, sold by reputable merchants — Merchandise that you would prefer to buy if you had the cash—Merchandise that looks good, that wears well—sold by merchants who do not hesitate to stand back of everything that they sell. It should be possible to ar- range a plan which would enable any deserving man or woman to buy necessities of quality— on credit — but pay little more than the cash price. It Can Be Done! ROGER W.
