Biography
Gerna Gitter was a striking dressmaker held on an assault accusation during the New York dress strike in March 1931. The March 12 Daily Worker reports that she was held under $250 bail at the previous day’s hearing. Setting bail is not proof that it was posted. The report supplies no exact arrest or physical release day, conviction or total custody. Source: https://www.marxists.org/history/usa/pubs/dailyworker/1931/v08-n062-NY-mar-12-1931-DW-LOC.pdf#page=1
