Biography
Frank Broot is individually named in the International Labor Defense political-prisoner directory reproduced by Laisve on September 8, 1930, page 5. The row lists a 4 years nominal term, a sentencing year of 1928, and confinement or correspondence location 818 Jefferson Avenue, Moundsville, West Virginia. The directory explicitly presents its subjects as political prisoners then confined, but its recycled entries are not exact admission dates or measured custody totals. The offense, arrest date, actual release and fuller identity are unresolved.
