Talk:Abrams v. United States

Court Membership

The court membership is incorrect. Brandeis is listed as joining in Holmes' dissent (and my textbook agrees) but he is not listed, as far as I can see, on the court membership. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 128.101.213.145 (talk) 04:06, 14 February 2007 (UTC).

Further, the wiki does not mention Russia at all... The entirety of the case was over U.S presence in Russia.

Brandeis is listed in the membership, and Russia is in the second paragraph, so this is no longer a concern. Corwinlw (talk) 23:45, 6 March 2011 (UTC)

Copy editing

I have undone RoryReloaded's copyediting inside quotation marks. If this is an actual quotation, it should be left as-is. chrylis (talk) 01:05, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

The quotation and edits referenced does not appear in the article at all. Corwinlw (talk) 23:45, 6 March 2011 (UTC)

Initial trial of defendants under presiding judge Henry De Lamar Clayton on Oct. 14, 1918

Ann Hagedorn's book Savage Peace (New York: Simon & Schuster, 2007) includes two chapters relevant to Abrams v. United States. The first, chapter 6, on pp. 61-79 under the title of "A Mere Slip of a Girl" is a detailed and dramatic account of the trial itself. The second, chapter 37, on pp. 391-403, entitled "Greatness" deals with the dissent of Justice Holmes. She made use of the trial transcript described as follows: Record Group 21, U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, Criminal Case Files, Archives Box 83, Docket Number C15-23 (the case file is physically located in Lee's Summit, Missouri but can be retrieved via National Archives and Record Administration at 201 Varick Street in NYC in three days). As a matter of interest, Hagedorn gives the much lower figure of $500 as the fine imposed on Mollie Steimer (see page 75 of her book). Menckenire (talk) 17:20, 21 March 2017 (UTC)
