Price Candidacy
Not Impossible
Think Observers
RALEIGH, Feb. 12.—Julian Price, j
president of the Jefferson Standard
Life Insurance company, in Greens
boro. has as yet made “no definite
decision” as to whether he will be
come a candidate for lieutenant
governor, as had been rumored in
ocme political circles here, be Indi
cated in a letter. The letter was
written following the publication of
a story to the effect that moat opin
ions in political circles here was
that Price would not become a can
didate for governor, but that he
might be a candidate for lieutenant
governor.
The reason for this opinion U>
political circles here was that Price
would have to depend for his sup
port upon the same groups which
are now supporting either Clyde R.
Hoey or Lieutenant Governor A. H.
Graham—Hie principal business in
terests of the state—and that his
entry would thus help to insure the
nomination of Dr. Ralph W. Mc
Donald rather than his own or that
of Clyde Hcey or Sandy Graham.
Thus it was surmised that Price’s
entry as a candidate would not even
be welcomed by his own class of
business associates. This opinion
still prevails here. It was conceded,
however, that If Price should run
for the nom.natlon for lieutenant
governor that he might get some
very substantial support and have a I
good chance to win the nomlna-]
tion.
In referring to the portion of the
story which said he probably would
not run for governor. Price said:
“Up to this moment I have given
no definite decision,” while with re
gard to the suggestion that he
might become a candidate for lieu-,
tenant governor, Price said: “Such1
>.n idea never entered my head.”
