The Chicago dispatch by Milton Howard, dated December 1, 1935 and published in the December 2 Daily Worker, names Henry Coe, Mrs. Mary Casey, Mrs. Mary Heffer and Harry Martin among people arrested and now in jail awaiting release on payment of $100 cash bail. This explicitly documents physical jail confinement, not merely an arrest. December 1 is the dispatch/status date, not an inferred admission date. No exact custody endpoints, birth or death dates, charge, conviction, sentence or present custody status is established. No race, party affiliation or individual organizational membership is inferred.
