Maloney was born on 10 September 1911 in Minneapolis. In his early life he was known as Jack or John Severson after his step father but he began to use his biological father's name around 1936 after receiving federal documents under that name. His mother and step father were politically active with Irish nationalism and the Industrial Workers of the World and he followed in their footsteps. He participated in the Minneapolis general strike of 1934 as well as several others. In 1940 he was jailed when during a strike by the North Central District Drivers Council a delivery van was destroyed.[1] In 1942 to avoid the draft he joined the United States Merchant Marine.
