Biography
Floyd Ramp was a founder of the U.S. Communist Party from Roseburg, Oregon. Floyd Ramp was sentenced to two years in prison for conspiracy to obstruct the draft. He served in McNeil Island and Leavenworth Penitentiaries from February 1918 to December 1919. In 1921, the FBI described Ramp as "one of the most notorious radicals in the entire country."
Printed pages 28 and 32 (PDF pages 12 and 16) publish Ramp's first-person account of Russian children's relief homes and identify his return from eleven months in Russia as American representative of International Workers' Aid. He was to accompany nationwide showings of Russia Through the Shadows. His individually captioned portrait corroborates identity; the existing photograph remains. These are post-imprisonment organizing and writing activities, without another custody episode. Source: https://www.marxists.org/history/usa/pubs/srp/v8n02-feb-1923-sov-rus-pict.pdf
