Judge Who Tried Mooney Still
Convinced He's innocent

SAN FRANCISCO. March q
G.N.SO. - Although Superior
Judge Franklin A. Griffin, who
tried Thomas j. Mooney in 1916
and saw him convicted, believes
that a new trial would be a "hol-
low farce" because of insufficient
evidence, he still is convinced
that Mooney is innocent, he de-
clared today:
"I agree with the district at
tOrney's office that it would
be well nigh impossible to
gather enough evidence for a
new trial.
However, my opinion. ex-
pressed these past 16 years,
remains unchanged. 1t is still
my belief that Mooney was
convicted on perjured testimony
wiIfuIly and deliberately pro-
duced at his trial"

After three weeks it can be
stated that this is an adminiStra-
ton Of individualists.
Also, it is a domestically eman.
cipated administration. Each
one of the Franklin Roosevelt
clan is an individual. Each one
does and says and thinks about
as he or she wishes.
Respect Each Other
But they are loyal to each other.
Intensely loyal. Like the Three
Musketeers'-"one for all and all
for one.'
In big issues. they are bound by
q kind of tribal affection and in

tainment and occupation they go

tients, and no sooner was her
back turned than they would
hitch on to her starched skirts,
and, with her first move in the
opposite direction, send the
beds, which were on casters,
skating across the highly waXed
floor. This performance, re-
peated at frequent intervals, so
aggravated Franklin's condition
that he was soon in the throes
of a relapse. Of course, we
caught the first boat home as
soon as we heard that his tenn
perature was mounting; but
when I arrived on the scene I
was told that unless I, too,
meant to remain in isolation
could not see him.
Visits On Ladder
In spite of my husbands anXi-
ETY., he was tremendously
amused, as were the others
there, by the way I circumvent-

eral times each day I would
climb a tall, rickety ladder and,
by seating myself on the top,
manage to see into the room
and talk with our small, con-
valescing scapegrace. He loved
to see me appear over the win
dow ledge, and, at first sight
of me his pale, little face would
break into a happy, albeit pa
thetic smile. He was dreadfully
wan though, and so thin that a
neighbor called him my little
reconcentrado, a term applied
in those days to groups OF starV'
ing CubanS.
AS a matter of fact, Franklin
chose his school days to go
through a whole succession OF
children's diseases, which his
isolation at home had probably
prevented his getting earlier.

measles, and the latter disabll-

Judge Ward Sets April rs As
Date for Trial to Start; Pick
Special Counsel

SAN FRANCISCO, March ~
GN.SO. Plans for a new trial
for Thomas ]. Mooney, Americas
most famous prisoner, today
awaited action by State Attorney
y. S. Webs.
When Judge Lewis H. Ward
ordered Mooney to trial on a IT,
year-old indictment growing out
of the 1915 preparedness day
bombing in which 10 persons
were killed and 40 injured, Dis
trict Attorney Matthew Brady
and his staff disqualified them.
selves.
This made it necessary for the
Attorney General to appoint spe.
cial counsel to prosecute Mooney.
Trial Starts April rs
Judge Ward set April 26 as
the date on which the trial will
start.
Mooney was jubilant over
Judge Wards ruling for a hear
ing on the sole remaining murder
indictment against him. He is
now serving a life sentence on
one indictment. The others,
with this lone exception, were dis
missed.
Although the outcome of the
trial will not affect the original
murder conviction, MONEYS hope
is, according to counsel, that if
he is exonerated on this indict-
ment, it will pave the way for
complete pardon.
Predicts He'll Hang
However, Edward A. Cunha,
special prosecutor of the original
bombing trials, predicted Mooney
would be sentenced to hang as
a result of the new trial.
In a statement issued through
his defense league, Mooney de-
clared:
"If am guilty, I should
hang. If am not guilty of
this charge, then I am not
guilty of the bombing, and /
must be vindicated and granted
my freedom"
Four governors of California,
including the present governor,
James Rolph, jr., have refused
to pardon Mooney.
Mooney was convicted with
Warren K. Billings, who is serv-
ing a life sentence in Folsom
prison.

Lieut.. Norman Baillie- Stewart, of.

on trial charged with violation Of
the official secrets act, was alb
solved of "treacherous intentions"
by the judge advocate Of his court
martial today.
Dramatically interrupting the
closing address by Norman Parkes,
defense counsel, the judge advo-

announced he would advise the
court that there was mo treach-
erous intention on the part of the
accused"
AsSailed as Kept Man"
!, The announcement came as q
surprise. The judge advocate had
bitterly arraigned Baillie-Stewart
as a "kept man" during the de-
fendant's cross-examination on
the witness stand.
In his closing address, Parks
declared the revelations concern
ing Baillie-Stewart's relations
with Marie Lousie," the mysteri-
GUS German girl who he insists
sent him sums of money, had
wrecked his career. Parkes said:

An intriguing picture of the
mysterious Marie Louise" as d
woman who sought the acquaint.
ance Of Englishmen in hotels and
other public places was drawn
today at the court-martial.
The defendant has insisted that
Marie Louise" fell in love with
him in Berlin and subsequently
sent him sums of money totaling
$315.
Young, Fair and Pretty
The prosecution, however, al.
leges this money was sent in
payment for his disclosure Of
official military secrets.
Evidence concerning the wom.
ans interest in Englishmen was
given by Victor Sylvester, young
British dancing instructor, who
said Marie Louise" sought his
acquaintance when he was Civ.
ing a dancing exhibition at the
Eden Hotel in Berlin on August
IL last year.
Sylvester described the woman
as young, fair and pretty" He
said:
"She spoke English with an
accent. 1 commented on her
name and asked if she were
French.
She was very offended, and
said: 4 am very German
Sylvester said he danced with
her and that she told him:
II am very fond of English
men,"
MOTHER TAKES STAND
Lieut. n ant Baillie-Stewart'S
mother took the witness stand
and told of her sons financial
difficulties. The defendant insists
he continued his friendship with
Marie Louise" simply to take adj
vantage of the money she sent to
him with more or less lavish
hand.
Baillie-Stewart's brother, Lieut..
Codrington Stewart-Wright, fol-
lowed Sylvester to the stand and
testified the accused officer had
told him about his association
with Marie Louise" He said:
II was very annoyed and .
called him a fool. He argued,
trying to justify his conduct,
but, was too disguised and
closed the matter at once"
At the close of Baillie-Wright'S
testimony the defense closed it's

Advice to
LoveIorn
By BEATRICE FAIRFAX

Dear Miss Fairfax:
I clerk in a drugstore (soda.
sandwiches, etc.; am not a
pharmacist, wish I were. Also
I'm no hair-tonic-ad; no beauty
of the male sex. And wish
a certain girl would let me
alone. She has about cost me
my job, anyway.
She comes into the store three
or four times a day, perches on
a stool and talks to me. I give
her the frigid-air treatment. but
it won't work. "Old Doc" who's
the manager, told me it had to
stop: I told him I'd done all
could to keep her out.
Then he told her she must be
awful sick to be running to the
drugstore so much. She Just
laughed at him. That got him
sore, and he said to me wed
better call it quits Saturday
night" I begged him to let me
stay.
I don't get much. and every
penny is needed at home. Gee,
Miss Fairfax, if I lose my job
I don't know what my mother
will do. I've never encouraged
that girl, and now I just hate
her. JUNIOR CLERK.
NOT often does a. letter like
this come to my column, I'm
thankful to say. The majority
of girls are rather the other way
round, afraid to invite a boy to
family supper for fear of ap-
pearing to chase" him. This
young lady who has probably
cost a boy his job is, it seems to
me, indulging in a prankish de-
sire to tease. I don't believe she
really cares about this lad,
whose only concern is to help
things along at home.
If she really did care, she'd
know intuitively that there is
no surer way of losing anyone'S
regard than to go after him in
this policeman like fashion. And
I hope if his letter should meet
the eye Of "Old Doc" that he'll
have a heart and reinstate the
the boy. if. he's been fired.

F all dshions
story in
Co|ors
BY WILMA LAVILLE

Here's a resume of the fall
color story. We're printing it
again as a help and guide to
those Of you who haven't made
up your minds just what to buy
and wear this year.
1t was made up by one Of
the leading silk manufacturers
of this country. They can tell
pretty we'll by what they have
sold, what we will wear this
fall. When stores and garment
manufacturers all agree, then
we know that we will. follow
step. And that's what has
happened on these colors.
Black leads. That's partial
ly because Paris is wearing
black more than for some sea-
sons, and also because we can't
find a. substitute for it as a
color that is suitable for all
day wear, and for evening as
we'll.
Brown is more popular for
the sports type of clothes, and
therefore has a big place in the
woolen field, but takes second
place to black in silks. There
are two good browns, called by
this silk hor Chona and
Friar browns, both with a nut
brown It.
Mole taupe, which we usual
" call just taupe, is next.
Taupe seems better than the
grayer eel gray, which some
women imagine they can't
wear, and others really don't
look so Will in. Then the COL
ors that are popular, tokay red,
which is as rapey as its name,
and dundee green.
The pansy purples will be seen
more in the evening than the
daytime, though bit of purple
to trim a gray dress will appear
here and there. Some rusty
reds, other shades of greens, and
blues will be seen, but not in
numbers.
Dark colors seem best for eve
ming, too, black leading, with
deep green, a blue almost as
dark as navy, amethyst, and
whey tones all good. After
them come the pastels, and
white, though it's pretty much
up to you which you choose
among them.
For evening wraps, many
metals, especially rather plain
cloths shot with gold or silver,
are very smart. Metal sheers are
lovely for evening gowns, too,
and they are usually in plain
weaves, rather than the ornate
jacquard designs of some years
ago.
