Biography

Pete Madis was detained on Angel Island in a deportation proceeding alleging subversive activities. The June 1 San Francisco dispatch in the June 4, 1936 Western Worker reports proposed deportation to Greece and $1,000 bail. The ILD sought loans and property bail to obtain release. Bail requested or set does not establish release, and threatened removal does not prove completed deportation. No exact custody endpoints or total are provided.
