RECORD TO talk TONIGHT
To JAMESBURG CITIZENS

JERSEY CITY, Aug. elf the
straw shows which way the wind is
blowing then George J.. Record will
be blown into the Republican NOM
nation for United States senator on
a gale of popularity or in the storm
of protest against his opponent. the
present senator, Joseph S. Freling-
huysen. the Record boosters aver.
The straw shows which way thu
wind blows and the straw vote in
various parts of the state up to date
show that Record is the favorite by
more than six to one.
At the Manhattan Briar Pipe
Company in Jersey City a few days
ago a straw vote was taken and II
votes were polled. OF this number
40 declared Record to be their
choice for United States senator.
Governor Edward 1. Edwards. the
Democratic candidate for the office,
was named by twenty-five of the
voters and Senator Frelinghuysen
received only six votes.
In the contest being conducted
by the Passaic News Mr.. Record ran
first for several days with Governor
Edwards second and Frelinghuysen
third and last. Within the past few
days Edwards has made considera-
VIC u lux Dut the leldllNt DOIuldT-
ity of the two Republican candidates
for the nomination is apparently
unchanged. The vote at the last
compilation was Edwards So, Rec
ord Al and Frelinghuysen 10. In
other words, of the 1T votes cast
Frelinghuysen got less than-9 per
cent while Record was the choice
of about SO per cent of the voters,
and the Democrat was favored by
the balance.
The Newark Ledger has been
conducting a poll and in this it is
said Record has also had a COM
parable lead over his adversary.
The Ledger refuser to disclose it's
figures in the contest until after they
had been published in that paper.
A vote taken in the Empire Pot
terry in Trenton produced Z votes in
the clay department. or this num-
Der 0voted for Record, 6 for Ed
wards and 1 for Frelinghuysen. A
poll was taken in the Mutual Pot
terry where seventy men voted. OF
this number So declared Record to
be their choice. Edward was sec
ond choice with Z votes and Freling-
huysen got none. Forty-five votes
were polled at the Crescent Pottery
for Record, Edwards got seven here
as in the Mutual Pottery and FIRE.
linghuysen's o was another 0.
In all, a total of more than 500
votes have been cast in the various
straw votes throughout the State and
of this number the tally shows Rec
ord was the ~favorite by 1 to 1
against FreIinghuysen and about
2R to one against Edwards. The
significance of the vote as showing
the relative popularity of Record
and Frelinghuysen is believed by the
Record managers to be very impor-
tant though little importance is at
tached to the Edwards vote since he
is unopposed in the Democratic
party.
7 The polls have been, taken by
newspapers, by public officials, pc
riodicals and other disinterested par
ties and for this reason the Record
boosters are particularly pleased
with the results shown.
Record is going to talk at James
burg this evening. Tomorrow he will
talk at Red Bank and Wednesday
at South Amboy.
