Biography
George Wallace was a union member of the Marine Firemen, Oilers and Watertenders, one of the defendants in the King-Ramsay-Conner (Point Lobos) case. In 1936, five members of the Marine Firemen, Oilers and Watertenders' union were charged with the murder of chief engineer George Alberts aboard the freighter Point Lobos at Alameda, California — a killing the ILD held was seized on to break the militant West Coast maritime unions. Prosecuted by Alameda County District Attorney Earl Warren, the case became a famous labor frame-up; the defendants were convicted of second-degree murder and pardoned in 1941.
