Portland Labor Leaders Surprised At Commutation Portland, Or., Nov. 30. Commuta tion of Thomas J. Mooney's death pen alty to lifo imprisonment by Governor Stephens of. California, caused expres sions of sun-pise among local labor leadors today but none of satisfaction. They predict that if developments of the next few days indicate a chance of a new trial for tho man convicted of murder, the general strike which has been ordered here for December 9, probably ibe rescinded and somo labor leaders say that if the government were to request it, the strike would likely be held in abeyance. "This is not just what we looked for," said Otto B. Hartwig, president of the State Federation of Labor. 'It's not what we want either. However, I 'm sure I am safe in saying the strike mould be held in abeyance if a request for such action were to come from the government, for instance " 'I cannot see how this action changes the status of-the case at all," declared E. J. Stack, state' secretary of the labor federation. ''The labor unions have demanded a new trial for Mooncy, and in my opinion, the com mutation of the sentence will not sat isfy this demand. Mooney is either gviil ty or innocent." . AUBURN NEWS NOTES (Capital Journal Special Service) Miss Helen Worth came homo frfim Portland to spend Thanksgiving.
