It states that Julia Boosh and Harry Steckler were in jail and that three League members, including Paul Carter, had been beaten. It does not provide an exact arrest day, formal charge, sentence or eventual release. Source: https://www.marxists.org/history/usa/pubs/dailyworker/1930/v07-n216-NY-sep-08-1930-DW-LOC.pdf
