American Machinery Export. Grow

Statistics only are interesting as
they show trends. Machinery exports
figures would be dry and .uninterest-
ing were it not for the fact that they
indicate clearly that Europe has
awakened to the value Of American
built machinery.
The constant growth of sales
abroad of American built machinery
demonstrates tho significant fact
that Europe is becoming more and
more alive to the necessity of en-
pioying machinery to do work which
formerly was done by hand. For in
stance. figures recently issued By the
Bureau of Foreign and Domestic
Commerce reveal the surprising fact
that in twelve months ending June
so, 1920. $a3,012.903 worth of type
writer's were exported from the Unit
ed States, as against s11,9SS.363
wcrth in the preceding twelve month
period, an increase of approximately
100 per cent. OF the $23012.903
worth, the United Kingdom took
s5,375,513. and France took $2,s25.13s.
Italy's typewriter bill was 1882, 116,
while Canada's was 81, 2b4,659.
However. the spread is not so
great between the value of exports
of machinery of all kinds. For the
year ended June 80, 1920, the aggre-
gate was 1897, 404,999, as against
$34S,010.56l, in the preceding twelve
months, difference of $51,394,43S.
Allowance, however, must be made
for the increased selling prices of
machinery in the last year over the
previous one. However, less metal
working machinery was imported
from the United States in the year
ended June 80, 1920 than in the pre-
ceding twelve months. The figures
are $49,02S5a1 and $5S,52S.217, re-
spectively. That the latter total was
not larger was due not SO much to
adverse conditions, such as the long
shoremen's strike, financial restric-
tons. ETC.. as it was to the heavy do
mestic d~mand.--Iron Trade Review.

BY, The Associated Press.
With returns incomplete up to an
early hour this morning, all indica
tions are that the third congression-
al district will go Republican. as
far as congressman is concerned, for
the first time in nine years. II.
Frank Appleby, Republican, former
mayor of Asbury Park, defeated DR..
William h. Ramsay, of Perth AM
boy, the Democratic candidate. by
a large majority, according to early
Indications
The third congressional district
comprises Ocean. Monmouth and
Middlesex counties and from latest
returns it would seem that DIR.
Ramsay has failed to carry any one
of these counties. Ocean county is
reported as giving Appleby a lead
of to /, while his lead in Mon
mouth has been conceded at Free
hold. the county seat, as at least
1000 Midf,esex returns are COM
ing slowly, but Appleby has small
lead over Ramsay in his home coun-
ty. Even Perth Amboy seems to be
going to Mr.. Appleby.
The main issue of the campaign
was the modification of the Volstead
act, DIR. Ramsay coming out openly
for the modification, while MIR.
Appleby was an avowed dry. This
issue alone is conceded by many of
the leaders to have been the main
cause of the defeat of DIR. Ramsay.
Both Ocean and Monmouth are
known dry counties and to some it
seemed hopeless from the first for
DR. Ramsay when he chose to run
on the wet issue. The women vote
is claimed by many to have been
the direct cause of AlNpleby's cleo
tion.
An idea of how Monmouth County
voted may be obtained from the
following returnsswhich were receiv-
ed just before going to press. Eight
districts in the county two OF which
were in Long Branch and one in
Asbury Park gave Appleby a total of
1911, and Ramsay II. Mr.. Appleby
early today claimed Asbury Park by
/ 900 and Long Branch by the same
number.
Indications are that DR.. Ra msay
has not only lost Middlesex codnty
by good majority. but has also lost
to Mr. Appleby in this city. his home
town.

App|eby Leads In Returns
From Three Counties

For the past nine years the third
district has been represented in con-
gress by Thomas j. Scully. of South
Amboy, Middlesex county. This is
the first time in twenty-five years
that Monmouth county has been
represented in congress.
L. Frank Appleby is native
Jerseyman. He was born at Old
Bridge, rural section of Middlesex
county, in 1864, and is fifty-five
years old. He received his early
education in the public schools of
New brunswick before removing to
ASbury Park. He is recognized as
one of the leading Republicans of
Monmouth county and has been ac-
tive in the council of his party for
u score of years.
He is chairman of the Ocean
boulevard Committee, a director of
the Asbury Park and Ocean Grove
bank. vice president of the Asbury
Park Building and Loan Association
and Chairman of the Asbury Park
Republican City Com mmittee.
