Pou Pictured As Friend of Farmer And Ex-Soldiers Elsewhere in today’s issue of this newspaper is an advertisement pre senting two letters relative to George Ross Pou’s interest in the farmers of Eastern North Carolina. That this interest is real and not simulated for campaign purposes is evidenced, his friends claim, by the fact that the ac tion referred to in the letters was tak en last fall, months before he had any reason to ibelieve that he would be a candidate for any office. Mr. Pou is said to ha ? contributed SIOO toward the expenses of the movement to se cure better tobacco prices, besides giv ing time and energy and counsel to make the movement a success. Mr. Pou’s supporters also point to his "friendly interest in the welfare of ex-service men as another trait which has endeared him to the peo ple of the entire State.” They contend that his efforts on behalf of service men and farmers are by no means confined to the fourth district, as it is claimed they would be if assumed for purely political reasons.
