SON IS URGED TO SAVE THE LIFE OF T. |. MONEY investigating Commission Con- Cludes Condemned Man Is Victim of Old Feud. WASHINGTON, formal 26.—With « him, Jan. report before delivered @ special investigating commission, led by Secretary of Labor Wilson, teps toward securing a retrial for oma Mooney, convicted of the Francisco preparedness parade crime, &@ the report the Commission, which fias conducted an investigation of tho trials of Mooney, Warren K. Biilings, Mrs, Rena Mooney and Israel Wein- berg, deciared this could be done by postponing tho execution of the death wentence {mposed on Mooney, awalting the outcome of a new trial based upon ecution under one of the untried dictments against him. After telling of the connection of illings and Mooney, the report points it that Mrs. Mooney and Weinberg, facing the same evidence, wero ac- quitted becauso the testimony of Frank Oxman, main witness for the State, had been discredited before their trials. “We find in the atmosphere sur- founding the prosecution and trial of the case ground for disquietude,” the wtatement says. “This feeling ts re- inforced by one factor of controlling importance. The most damaging tes- timony produced against Mooney ‘came from a witness named Oxman, ‘After Mooney’s conviction there came to light letters confessedly written by F Oxman prior to his having been called to testify. The plain import of theso fetters ts an attempt by Oxman to yuborn perjury in corroboration of the vital testimony which he was to give and which tn fact he did give againat Mooney. Oxman was tried for at- tempted subornation of perjury nd acquitted, but this is beside the present consideration, When Oxman was discredited the verdict against Mooney was dicredited.” Tho commission in detalling con- @itions in San Francisco at the time of Mooney’s trial says: “There can be no doubt that Moo- ney was regarded as a labor agitator of malevolence by the public utilities of San Francisco, and the utilities against which he directed his agita- tion sought to ‘get’ him.” No question of the jury's good faith fs raised in the report, but it declares that “it 1s because of subsequent de- ‘esident Wilson to-day took his first | jas Wiggin It Will Be Particularly for Be-| reft Little Ones of Widowers, | of Mothers Who Have to Work for a Living, and Or- phans Generally—Everything in New Home a Child’s Heart May Desire—Sponsors In-, clude Women Writers Who Have Written About and For Children and “Love Any- body’s Children and Every- body’s Children.” | Marguerite Mooers Marshall.
