Oxford Mich. (file Detroit F. W. Thompson I recieved your letter concerning a certain Philip Krik in relation to Wobbly history in Detroit. I don't even know if thereis substantial I.W.W. history in Detroit. To my knowledge the only wobbly particiation to any significance was the Briggs strike here. The only F.W one that I knof of that was active in that strike was F. W. Frank Cicarelli who has been dead many years. The only people here who could (possibly) help Krik in any way, you already know if, i.e. Verlani and unclear both branch secretaries and delegators at one time. Then, there are the Wayne State archives, which I hardly think would cover all known wobbly history, how I was able to contact Hary Riseman and had an interesting talk. I was unaware that he was the lawyer who was very instrumental in stopping your deportation altho we didn't finish on that subject. He, of course immediately unclear your name, in response to my question, does the name of Fred Thompson jar in your memory?
