Biography
Alfred Terry was a member of International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Local 3 in New York. The Daily Worker of April 24, 1933, page 3, reports his arrest on 1933-04-13 for disorderly conduct while protesting an appointed union chairman and calling for a special election. The article describes police intervention in a conflict between union officials and rank-and-file members over wages and union democracy, and characterizes the charge as a frame-up. It also reports that Terry was severely beaten by supporters of the union administration before the arrest. The source does not establish a conviction, sentence, length of detention or eventual release.
