This article focuses on the political developments of the year 1929. The second week of the inquiry of the U.S. Senate committee into the anti-disarmament propaganda of William B. Shearer, a Democrat, at the naval limitation conference at Geneva in 1927 brought up more mud from bottom but failed to give the public much further information in regard to responsibility for what took place. The Defense scored a notable victory at the beginning of the second trial of the sixteen strikers and Communists of Gastonia, North Carolina, for the murder of Police Chief, when nine of the prisoners were freed and the charges against the seven others were reduced from first-degree murder to that of second degree.
