Biography
Sam Friedman was a picket during the Retail Dairy, Fruit and Grocery Clerks Union Local 338 strike against the J. Rand chain stores. On May 20, 1936, Judge Anthony Hoekstra in the Third District Court of Queens County set $1,000 bail on a disorderly-conduct charge. This is an individual strike-related prosecution and bail report, not a conviction or proof that the bail was posted. The source supplies no exact arrest or release day.
