MONEY'S HOPE
FOR SENATE
AID DASHED
The report of the Wickersham
Commission's investigators, de
claring Thomas J. Mooney and
Warren K. Billings were convicted
of the 1916 San Francisco bomb
ing by perjured testimony, was
laid before the Senate Judiciary
Committeee today, but with little
likelihood of present action.
The committee met to receive
the report and to act upon the
long pending anti-injunction bill
—a measure designed to limit
the use of Federal injunctions in
labor disputes. Owing to the
Importance of this subject, com
mittee members predicted they
would have no time to pass on
the Mooney report.
Senator Norris 'R.> of
Nebraska, chairman, was puzzled
over the propriety of the com
mittee taking any action other
than to summarize the investi
gators’ report in a statement to
-the Senate. He pointed out the
Senate had no authority to inter
vene in the case, since the State
of California had exclusive juris
diction.
Norris said:
“It is up to the governor of
California to act. We might
report tht findings of the
investigators to the Senate but
I don’t see what else we can
do.”
