Labor Boss Billings Dies At Age 79
Warren K. Billings, longtime labor organizer imprisoned with Tom Mooney over the 1916 Preparedness Day bombing in San Francisco, died in Redwood City at 79 after an illness. A New York City native, Billings served 93 years before his 1939 release and later received a full pardon from Governor Brown in 198. He and Mooney were central to a reform movement claiming their innocence amid labor clashes with Open Shop practices. Billings left behind a widow and a son, Asa Joseph, with his body to be donated for medical research.
