UCLA Catalog Record ID UCLA Catalog Record ID: 4232796 Biography Thomas J. Mooney (1882-1942) was a labor activist convicted of murder for a bombing that occurred at the San Francisco Preparedness Day Parade on July 22, 1916. The bombing killed ten and injured forty parade bystanders and Mooney swore that he had not committed the crime. The parade was intended as a planned demonstration of the country's war-readiness during World War I, however, there was a strong undercurrent of isolationism and anti-militarism, particularly by certain elements of labor and from pacifist groups. Pamphlets circulated in the city threatening violence and counter-demonstrations in the days leading up to the parade. By most accounts, the trial of Mooney was mired in anti-socialist and anti-anarchist hysteria. Mooney and co-defendant Warren K. Billings were both convicted of murder. Allegations that certain key witnesses had perjured themselves or had been coerced to testify against Mooney later arose. Eventually the death sentences of Thomas Mooney and Warren Billings were commuted to life in prison in 1918 following a commission of inquiry established by President Woodrow Wilson. After 22 years of agitation and litigation, Mooney successfully secured a pardon from Governor Culbert Olson and was released from San Quentin in 1939. Thomas Mooney died on March 6, 1942. Scope and Content 224 2 The collection consists of bound volumes of legal documents and transcripts relating to: Thomas Mooney's trial for murder in San Francisco's Superior Court, the perjury trial of prosecution witness Frank C. Oxman, Mooney's petition for a Writ of Habeas Corpus submitted to the California Supreme Court, materials in support of Mooney's petition for gubernatorial pardon, and bound volumes of legal documents relating to The People vs. Warren K. Billings, a co-defendant whose case was closely intertwined with Mooney. There is also a wealth of ephemera consisting of pamphlets, booklets, and posters produced by Mooney's Defense Committee for the purpose of publicizing Mooney's case. The bulk of the collection's materials range from 1916-1935. Organization and Arrangement Arranged in the following series: • Boxes 1 - 2: Correspondence and ephemera organized alphabetically (pamphlets, booklets, periodicals, songs, press releases, etc.). • Boxes 3 - 8: Bound volumes roughly organized chronologically containing legal documents and transcripts relating to People vs. Mooney, People vs. Billings, and People vs. Oxman • Boxes 9 - 10: Oversized box (9) and map folder (10) containing ephemera such as publicity posters and reproductions of newspaper articles • Box 11: Additional, non-oversized ephemera (pamphlets, fliers, programs, forms) • Boxes 11-12: Additional bound volumes and pamphlets, mostly concerning People vs. Mooney and Mooney's petition for a Writ of Habeas Corpus.

Warren is reluctant to have the Advisory Pardon Board recommend a pardon to the governor, however, Warren does feel that they can recommend for Billings' release because of the amount of time served.

COLUMBIA LAW REVIEW VOL. 114 JUNE 2014 NO. 5 ARTICLE THE ADMINISTRATIVE ORIGINS OF MODERN CIVIL LIBERTIES LAW Jeremy K. Kessler* This Article offers a new explanation for the puzzling origin of modern civil liberties law. Legal scholars have long sought to explain how Progressive lawyers and intellectuals skeptical of individual rights and committed to a strong, activist state came to advocate for robust First Amendment protections after World War I. Most attempts to solve this puzzle focus on the executive branch's suppression of dissent during World War I and the Red Scare. Once Progressives realized that a powerful administrative state risked stifling debate and deliberation within civil society, the story goes, they turned to civil liberties law in order to limit the reach of that state. Drawing on a wealth of unexplored archival material, this Article inverts the conventional story: It argues that lawyers within the executive branch took the lead in forging a new civil-libertarian consensus and that they did so to strengthen rather * David Berg Foundation Scholar, NYU School of Law; Ph.D.

  • The Creative Society Environmental Policymaking in California,1967
    The Creative Society Environmental Policymaking in California,1967-1974 Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Robert Denning Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2011 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Paula M. Baker, Advisor Dr. William R. Childs Dr. Mansel Blackford Copyright By Robert Denning 2011 Abstract California took the lead on environmental protection and regulation during Ronald Reagan‟s years as governor (1967-1974). Drawing on over a century of experience with conserving natural resources, environmentally friendly legislators and Governor Reagan enacted the strongest air and water pollution control programs in the nation, imposed stringent regulations on land use around threatened areas like Lake Tahoe and the San Francisco Bay, expanded the size and number of state parks, and required developers to take environmental considerations into account when planning new projects. This project explains why and how California became the national leader on environmental issues. It did so because of popular anger toward the environmental degradation that accompanied the state‟s rapid and uncontrolled expansion after World War II, the election of a governor and legislators who were willing to set environmental standards that went beyond what industry and business believed was technically feasible, and an activist citizenry that pursued new regulations through lawsuits and ballot measures when they believed the state government failed. The environment had a broad constituency in California during the Reagan years. Republicans, Democrats, students, bureaucrats, scientists, and many businessmen tackled the environmental problems that ii threatened the California way of life.

Today, we celebrate that image in remembering the career of Justice Stanley Mosk. Like the mighty river of justice, the legacy of Justice Mosk flows long, it flows wide, and it flows deep. The length of this river stretches back through sixty-five years of California history. Stanley Mosk began his career in public service as executive secretary and legal advisor to Governor Culbert Olson in 1939. He handled Governor Olson's pardon of labor activist Tom Mooney, ending a quest for justice that bounced back and forth between the California Supreme Court and the United States Supreme Court for twenty years.' When Governor Olson was defeated for reelection by Earl Warren, Governor Olson rewarded Stanley Mosk with a midnight appointment to the bench before Olson left office.

This period is widely known as the First Red Scare, and is framed as a reaction to recent anarchist terrorism, syndicalist unionizing, and the Bolshevik Revolution.
