Biography
The San Pedro dispatch dated July 5, 1934 identifies Jim Lacey as a Western Worker correspondent, arrested in the raid on the Marine Workers Industrial Union hall and brutally beaten in jail. It says the hall raid occurred yesterday and identifies International Labor Defense attorney Grover Johnson as defending the seven cases. The contemporary allegations and spelling are retained; no final disposition, exact physical discharge or measured duration is supplied.
