The Daily Worker, October 25, 1934, page 2 reports that Judge James H. Davis denied bail on October 23. The other defendants were Emory instructor Nathan Yogel, attorney Alex Racolin and union president Clarence Weaver, identified with the existing Nathan Yagol, Alexander Racolin and Clarence Weaver records. This report supplies no exact arrest day or later release for Alling; her initials are retained without expansion.
