Judge Frank Dunno
Dies; Presided Over
Warren Billings Trial
Mayor Sehmitz and Eeon
Also Tried Before Jurist
Who Served As Years
Ps the Associated Press.

Ps the Associated Press.
SAN FRANCISCO, June 18.-Su-
perior Judge Frank H. Dunno, rs,
who served As years on the bench
longer than any other jurist in
California-died yesterday at his
San Anselmo summer home. He
had continued his work as unusl
until two weeks ago.
Some of the most difficult and
widely publicized criminal cases in
the city's history were tried be-
fore him, including the case of War;
rem K. Billings for the 1916 Pre-
paredness Day bombing, the graft
trial of Mayor Eugene Schmitz in
1908 and more recently the sensa-
tional murder trial of Public De-
fender Frank j. Egan.
Judge Dunno became known early
in his career for outspokenness on
the bench.
Criticized State Supreme Court.
He once publicly deplored the
action of the California Supreme
Court in reversing the conviction
of Mayor Schmitz in the sensational
graft cases.
In the Billings trial he made
every effort to suppress attempts
of lawyers to make spectacular
showings in the courtroom.
Justice in this country has de-
generated into a game" he said
once in 1914. The attorney for the
defense and the district attorney
are the players, the defendant the
pawn and the judge the umpire"
Billings Trial.
Feeling was high at the time Bill
ings was tried for completely in the
Preparedness Day bombing, in
which 10 persons were killed and
about so injured. Tom Mooney was
tried and sentenced to death by an
other judge. but Billings, then %
years old, escaped with a life-im-
prisonment sentence by recon-
mendation of the jury in Judge
Dunne's court.
There was some grumbing that
Judge Dunno was biased in favor
of Billings. But IA years later, when
Billings application for pardon was
before the State Supreme Court for
recommendation, the judge in a
lengthy letter to Chief Justice Will
liam H. Waste vigorously opposed
pardon.

WhiSkies.
Although the heiress to a $780,

gagged in the past to many of So

mantle matrimony was her main
ambition, was 20 June 9. She will
become custodian of her fortune
