Hometown Papers The Journal of Acquackanonk Township, which was started around 1914 and is an ancestor of today’s Dateline Clifton, was owned by Col. Charles F. H. Johnson. He had served in World War I, was president of Botany Mills and also owned the Clifton Printing Company, located at 699 Main Ave., which is now 1088 Main Ave. Following the township’s incorporation as the City of Clifton in 1917, the Journal changed its name to The Clifton Journal. During the 1920’s, Augustine La Corte edited it but he would soon begin his own publication, The Clifton Leader, and create a rivalry that lasted more than a half century. Following Gus La Corte’s departure, Col. Johnson brought in Max Kroll, an itinerant special editions developer who was working on a project with Paterson’s Morning Call, recalls George Kroll, Max’s son and later editor and publisher of the paper himself. Max eventually purchased the paper in 1938. Kroll noted that his father covered everything in town, from sporting events to City Council meetings, and he knew everyone. George and his brother Seymour joined their father in the business, with George’s interest primarily on the journalism side, while his brother focused on production. Brothers Seymour and George Kroll with their dad, Max Kroll of The Clifton Journal, which he purchased in 1938.
