Biography
Elia Ratkowski was arrested while attending a Union of Russian Workers meeting in Chicago. The 1920 congressional case summary continues onto printed page 45, recording his examination on November 8, 1919, when he said he had left the organization about three months earlier. Officials recommended deportation, but the warrant was canceled March 17. The examination date is not established as the arrest date, and no physical release or complete custody duration is supplied.
