LISTEN, FOLKS

The establishment of this paper is
the result of the interest of a num-
Der of public spirited Twin City col
ored folk, who felt the need of an
aggressive, progressive and militant
newspaper to broadcast along with
other established agencies to the gen
eral public the hopes and aspirations
of the Negroes Of Minnesota and the
Northwest. The Twin City Herald
wants to help build greater St. Paul
and Minneapolis. The Herald believes
that Bigger and Better Twin Cities
should mean also Bigger and Bet
ter Colored Twin Cities. Any plans
or provisions made for the building
of these great cities must include all
groups making up the population.
The ten thousand colored folks of the
two cities, most of them substantial
citizens, many of them home owners,
have been neglected in the past in
such plans especially in regards to
employment. A sort of tacit under
standing between certain employers
has produced a closed door condition
toward colored workers.
The Herald simply wants square
deal. We want no more or less than
is given other American citizens.
Racial consciousness among our group
in this section of the country is at
low ebb. We have been too easily
satisfied. For the protection economi-
cally of the future generations of col
ored Minnesotans we must redevelop
our sense of racial pride. That is
one Of the jobs that the Herald in
tends to accomplish with your as
sistance.
In politics the Herald will support
men and measures. Let's wake up
and cooperate with our local publica-
tons, churches and organizations and
show the paler brother that we are
a component part of the social, indus
trial, and political life of this great
Northwest.

TWO PROMINENT HORSEMEN
DIE

DIE
In the passing of Moses c. Moore
at Dayton, Ohio, and William Perkins
of Lexington, Kentucky, our group
lost two of it's best known horsemen
and business men. Mr.. Moore's death
came first after an illness of three
years during which time he remained
active in his business until three weeks
prior to his demise. Coming from
Paris, KY, where he was born, Mr..
Moore began life in Dayton as labor
er at a salary of S1.00 day and by
thrift and business foresight he be-
came one of the wealthiest Negroes in
Ohio. He made considerable money in
real estate and finally purchased a
number of race horses and remained
active in the racing game for two score
years. At the time of his death he
owned several good horses, including
Marion Gloosbey, Gypsy George, Who
Knows Me and Uncle Velo. Mr..
Moore contributed literally to all
charities and was the recognized
political leader of our racial group
in Dayton.
William Perkins, the best known
race horse trainer in America, who
was trainer for Moore for 80 years,
after attending the funeral of his
friend and employer, returned few
DAYS later to his home at Lexington,
KY, where he died from blood poison

BIZ United Press
NEW YORK, June 15,-The long

and Jack Sharkey in bout to de-

for the heavyweight title was con-
firmed by Tex Pickard today.
Dempsey az Sharkey will meet
July 81 at e Yankee stadium be-
fore a crowd which Richard conf
IDENTIFY expects will pay $1,000 1000, al
though no champion is on the card.
Each of the principals will get %

Dempsey, >who has been training
in California for several weeks, will
come east and take over his fayorite
Saratoga training quarters, Richard
said. United Press dispatches from
the coast quoted Dempsey as con-
firming Richards announcement of
the battle.
Sharkey's remarkable showing
against Maloney probably will make
him at least an even money bet in
the Dempsey bout, and if the fight
is won by a knockout by either
battler, the victor will find many
hackers when he meets Tunney.
The championship fight Is tenta-
lively set for September.
