Biography
In a signed letter, D. Morgenstern says a landlord and marshal arranged an arrest following leadership in a successful Bronx rent strike, followed by bail liberty, an August 23, 1932 Special Sessions trial at the Bergen Building and an August 30 suspended sentence. ILD attorney Merbaum represented the worker. The source does not state a first name, statutory charge, sentence length or precise pre-bail detention.
