EPISODE 33 – THE WATERFRONT COMMISSION BLUES
According to Matt, The Waterfront Commission has outlived its usefulness and has become an agency that is highly prejudiced against Italian Americans who “happen to know somebody connected to Organized Crime.” Matt’s discusses his recent article in the Daily News - Voice of the People, in which he says “the Supreme Court is now looking at a case in which the State of New Jersey is trying desperately to get out from under the bi-state Waterfront commission set up originally to prevent organized crime from thriving on the NY-NJ docks.” Matt goes on to say that in 1953, when it was established there was work to do, but now it has become part of the problem.
