Biography
Dave Gorman and his unnamed wife remained in jail at Wilkes-Barre on August 5, 1929 after refusing a ten-dollar fine for distributing the call to International Red Day. The paper reports federal officials seizing leaflets and contemplating an additional charge, which is not treated as already filed. It supplies no exact initial arrest, discharge or completed duration. This source does not independently name his wife as Jennie Gorman.

Page 3 names Jennie Gorman arrested July 31 for antiwar leaflets and her husband, printed D. A. Gorman, arrested the following day while inquiring at court. The paired Wilkes-Barre antiwar context corroborates the existing Dave Gorman household without creating another husband. The article says both refused an offer of release conditional on leaving the district and were charged with sedition, but were actually out on $2,000 bail by November 11. November 20 trial was prospective; no later outcome is presumed. Source: https://www.marxists.org/history/usa/pubs/dailyworker/1929/1929-ny/v06-n213-NY-nov-12-1929-DW-LOC.pdf
