  • Franklin Roosevelt, Frank Hague, and the Presidential Election of 1936 in New Jersey
    NJS: An Interdisciplinary Journal Winter 2016 120 “A Common Interest” Franklin Roosevelt, Frank Hague, and the Presidential Election of 1936 in New Jersey By Si Sheppard DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.14713/njs.v2i1.30 The Great Depression and the New Deal forged a mutually beneficial alliance between President Franklin D. Roosevelt and Mayor Frank Hague of Jersey City. Each needed the other. Hague benefited from the federal funds he was allocated by the New Deal relief agencies. Channeling this government assistance through his political machine in Jersey City enabled him to consolidate his control over Hudson County and ultimately become the dominant figure of the Democratic Party in New Jersey. In return, Hague pledged to secure New Jersey for Roosevelt in his reelection campaign. Ironically, Hague got the better of this arrangement. Roosevelt’s personal popularity would have ensured his reelection in 1936 regardless of Hague’s level of commitment. But by entrenching Hague’s authority, as the New Deal tide ebbed over the ensuing years, and elections in New Jersey became more competitive, the President became ever more dependent on the capacity of the Mayor to deliver the votes he needed. This necessitated a policy of willful indifference towards Hague’s increasingly autocratic and corrupt maladministration. New Jersey today is a loyal “Blue” state, having delivered its electoral votes to the Democratic Party’s candidate for President in every election for a generation. That was not always the case, however; when Franklin D. Roosevelt ran for reelection in 1936, New Jersey was considered a key “swing” state.

However distinguished Decatur House may be historically, it is equally.distinguished architecturally. Designed by Benjamin H. Latrobe, our first' professional architect, it was "built in 1819 on a site of* great importance, a neighbor of the White House, with ample funds derived from Decatur's prize money. Even when the architects of our early houses are known, very seldom the working drawing and professional correspondence are preserved that relate to the building. In this case they largely are. In Decatur House is a portfolio of Latrobe's drawings for the building itself and'elsewhere much of his correspondence with Decatur survives. Yfe know from these that the latter desired the house to be "sturdy as a ship" in construction and of great simplicity of design. With both of these requirements Latrobe must have been in thorough accord. Trained in England by Cockrell the great architect and Smeaton, the engineer who built Kddystone Lighthouse, he was an accomplished engineer of many achievements including the water supply of the city of Philadelphia, the dredging of the Susquehanna Canal and the construction of the wings of the Capitol. An examination of the building shows that only the best .materials were used and the fine condition of the structure attests the excellence of the craftsmanship.

INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image.
