Biography
Harry Levine was business agent of Laundry Workers International Union Local 280 in New York. Page 3 of the May 23, 1936 Daily Worker reports that eleven union members, including Berland and Levine, had been arrested on alleged felonious-assault charges during the nine-week Hotel Albert Hand Laundry strike. The union said the arrests followed attacks on its picket line and characterized the charges as retaliatory. Judge William Klapp at Fifty-fourth Street Court held Harry Levine on $100 bail. A Wednesday Felony Court hearing was scheduled, not reported completed. The article supplies no exact individual arrest day, actual posting of bail, discharge, conviction or completed custody interval.
