WALKER TRIP
AWAKENS HOPE
IN FAR WEST
Leaders of CALIFORNIA;
Liberals Watch Mooney
Case Closely.

By Scripps- H0tcdrd Newspaper Alliance
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 21.-Wi1
New York's dapper. wise-cracking
mayor succeed in convincing his eff
fulgent old friend, Governor James
Rolph of California, that Tom
Mooney and Warren K. Billings
should be released from prison?
This question was uppermost in
the minds Of California liberal lead
ers today as they hailed with enthu-
siasm, somewhat tinged with skep-
ticism, the news that the two "play-
boys of politics" were to confer soon
on the Mooney Billings case.
Walker is coming to California to
see Rolph in behalf of the two
men, now serving their fifteenth
year in prison for the San Francisco
Preparedness day parade dynamit-
ing in 1916.
Attorneys Will Attend
His visit will follow a conference
on the case arranged by Frank j
Walsh, MONEYS New York attor-
ney, and Aaron Sapiro, liberal
leader and nationally known attor-
ney, who have been campaigning
for the release of the two prison
ers. The conference will be at.
tended by Rolph, Walsh, SapirC
and several Of Rolph'S legal anc
political advisers.
The Walker Rolph meeting vii
mark new high light in the cam.
paign to free Mooney and Billings
which reopened last summer wher
the sole remaining witness in the
original trials whose testimony haI
not heretofore been proved per-
jured, was found by the Scripps.
Howard newspapers and returned
to San Francisco, where he was re.
vealed a pathological liar and nj
testimony thoroughly discredited.
Trip Spurs Action
Local leaders in the long fight tx
win freedom for Mooney and Bill
ings pointed significantly to Walk
er's action which will take him
across the nation, sacrificing Off
cial affairs, to make a personal ap-
peal to Governor Rolph.
Austin Lewis, San Francisco at
torney and liberal, and manager Of
the northern California branch
American Civil Liberties Union, de-
clared:
"The implications involved in the
injusticeS are just beginning tc
manifest themselves, and I believe
this is only the start of a move
ment that will advertise California
adversely, and do the people of the
state great harm, unless justice is
done"
