Biography
William Felix was one of the leaders of the 6 March 1930 unemployment demonstration in Milwaukee — a crowd estimated at 25,000 — sentenced to 3 months in the Milwaukee House of Correction under the city's Socialist administration.
The September 8, 1930 Laisve, page 5, reproduces an International Labor Defense political-prisoner directory. Its row prints William Felix, a term of 3 months, the year 1930 in the sentencing-year column, and confinement or correspondence location Station F, Box G, Milwaukee, Wisconsin. This is an attributed historical directory entry; printed years and nominal terms are not exact intake dates or measured time served, and mailing boxes do not independently identify a prison. The directory contains stale or conflicting chronology, so this row does not override independently established conviction, death or release facts.
