Biography

Eddie Moleski, also printed Meliski in the July 26, 1928 Daily Worker, was a Zeigler labor prisoner reported as confined at Pontiac since December 1927. The article distinguishes his institution from the Menard confinement of Corbishley, Meanovich and Simich in the same defense campaign. It establishes actual imprisonment but supplies neither his precise admission day nor a release or measured total. He is not identified with Adam Moleski of the separate Pittston prosecution.
