add to cart   close window

Fifteen men and women would go to trial on July 29, 1929 in Gastonia, North Carolina, for the murder of the Chief of Police of that city. Unfortunately, many of them have been reckless in talking to impressionable crowds, some are communists, some are Northerners, some are foreign-born, and one was actually caught with a Russian grammar. Governor C.C. Young of California has promised to read the record of the Mooney case and to decide whether he would be justified in pardoning the man who has lived twelve years within the walls of San Quentin prison because he was convicted of bombing the San Francisco preparedness parade which has been branded as perjury.
