A year ago this month member of New Jersey Historical Society, John Longo, twenty-nine-year-old crusader against the regime of Mayor Frank Hague of Jersey City, New Jersey denied tampering with election books. From bitter experience in his ten-year war with the Hague machine he realized immediately that Hague's henchmen were once more on his trail and hurried to consult his friend and comrade-in-arms, J. Owen Grundy. Longo had other than political motives for his deep-seated detestation of the lean man in the City Hall. A devout Catholic, he was grieved to know that the evil reputation of the Catholic Mayor was hurting his church everywhere.
