Biography
A Workers Ex-Servicemen’s League leader printed only as Cowan led fifty Cleveland veterans whom police were holding under what the August 1, 1932 Daily Worker calls virtual arrest in Washington, Pennsylvania. The item appears in its report of police preventing Bonus March veterans from regrouping at Johnstown. This documents attributed police restraint of the named leader; it supplies no first name, formal booking, statute, exact start or end, verdict or measured duration. The qualified surname is retained without linking unrelated Cowan profiles. Source: https://www.marxists.org/history/usa/pubs/dailyworker/1932/v09-n182-NY-aug-01-1932-DW-LOC.pdf#page=3
