SOW JEROME'S PICTURE POSTAL CAMPAIGN FOR GOVERNOR NOMINATION
The article notes Jerome supporters distributing four postal cards for his Democratic gubernatorial bid. Each card bears only a half tone portrait on the back with no name, prompting Democrats statewide to ask who he is. Jerome is fishing in Cape Breton and gave a St John interview on insurance, defending policyholders and noting solid reserves in major firms. He dodges the Bryan boom remark, saying politics should be left alone.
