Bitter Labor Chapter Fades Into History
Warren K. Billings, 79, co-defendant with Tom Mooney in the 1916 San Francisco bombing case, died in Redwood City on Labor Day after illness. Once jailed and later pardoned after decades, Billings helped fuel early 20th century labor agitation opposing World War I and direct action. Born in New York, he moved west as a shoemaker before joining Mooney in labor organizing. Gov. Brown granted a full pardon in 1961.
