Biography
Joseph Meak, an International Upholsterers union member from Passaic, was arrested Monday, July 9, 1934 while picketing Metro Art Inc. in Jersey City. The July 10 dispatch says Judge McGovern held him on $250 bail on a disorderly-conduct charge, with a hearing planned for July 17 and Abraham Isserman conducting the defense. That hearing is prospective, and physical release and complete duration are unestablished. Daily Worker, July 11, 1934, page 2.
