REMARKS OF THE PRESIDENT BEFORE
A GROUP OF PEOPLE REPRESENTING
THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY THROUGHOUT
THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY AND LABOR
LEADERS OF THE AF of L AND CIO
AND BROTHERHOOD OF TRAINMEN,
JERSEY CITY, NEW JERSEY, October 7,
1948, 10:00 P.M., E.S.T.
Mr. Chairman, Congressman Hart, the City Mayor,
Mayor Hague, Senator Moore, the Candidate for Governor:
I don't think there's any doubt but what New Jersey
will stay where it belongs -- in the Democratic column. New
Jersey has never deserved anything but a Democratic Administra-
tion because the Democrats stand for the people.
I hope that you will send a Congressional delegation
to Washington this time with whom I can work. You've got
one man there that I can work with all right, but you've got
one or two I can't work with.
I am highly pleased, highly honored, and it has been
one of the grandest days I have had on the whole tour. Every
time I go into a State I say, "Well, this one can't be as
good as the other one.' 11 Then each one gets better. There
is a build-up my friends.
We are going to win this election because we're right
and they're wrong.
