preachers whose names are familiar
to Mr.. Young are Rev. George b.

Rev. Mr.. Saunders of WaterYille, who
came TO North Arson to marry Mr..

MOONEY CASE
Is Being Closely Watched
By Trade Unionists

San Francisco.-A committee ap-
pointed by the local labor council has
investigated the new developments in
the Mooney case, caused by state
ments by Detective Hand, and has
made this report:
1--WE have interviewed the mayor,
chief Of police and district attorney,
and each of them gave US without
hesitation all of the information they
possess
eve find that Officer Draper Hand
has eliminated many sections of his
confession as printed in the daily
newspapers.
eve also find that he has made no
statement or evidence there taken
under oath.
Again we find that his statement
as corrected by himself is contradict
ed by Captain Matheson, Lieutenant
Golf, and Lieutenant Bunner.
I'VE believe that the question of
new trial is not the paramount is
sue at this moment, but that rather
the obtaining of definite additional
evidence of unfairness in the former
trial is the most necessary element
in the present status Of the case
"To obtain additional evidence of
this nature it would be necessary to
take the testimony of witnesses under
oath. The only method by which this
The Butler County press. [volume] (Hamilton, Ohio) 1900-1946, 1920-12-24

can be done to our knowledge is for
the district attorney to have the wit
nesses in question summoned before
the grand jury and the evidence taken
under oath.
in our interview with the district
attorney we found that it is his IN
tcntion to take this matter up with
the grand jury and have the witnesses
summoned and the testimony taken
under oath before that body
"If sworn testimony be obtained
that will be of distinct benefit to the
defendants, the district attorney then
will place the same before the govern
or for the purpose Of obtaining par
dons for Mooney and Billings
"In our opinion it is advisable, in
the interest Of the council and Mooney
and Billings, that the labor council
await the results of the grand jury
investigation of the present revela-
tions, and then adopt firm procedure
based upon intelligent and accurate
information; in the meantime we re
commend that the council should con-
cur in the policy that mas been adopt
ed by the district attorney in the
nren1iSes"

HOW MiLLERAND PICKED

Much comment resulted from a
comparison between the French
method of electing a president
which takes only a few days of ex.
feitement, and our own. which re.
quires the better part of a year.
Now lie Temps Of Paris tells us
how NJ. Millerand, the new French
prime minister. upset political ira
ditlons in selecting his cabinet. He
did not waste time going through
the forms of consulting party lead
RS whose views are known in ad-
vance. nor in Offering portfolios to
men who he knew would nor ac-
cept them, nor did he pick out stars
o' the first magnitude Instead. to

ing, honest men. The county de-
