Monday about this time e p. m.)
millions of us Americans will be
dialing to catch the championship
prize fight. While thousands of
Germans, Russians, English and
Italians will be warning with death
dealing weapons a brownskinned
young chap with the skin of baby
will wage a war against another
American lad as Louis the champ
and Nova the challenger meet in
the prize ring. If Louis loses his
crown many will be disappointed
for he has been a truly great
champion. If Nova loses he will
join that great caravan of cham
pions and aspiring pugilists who
have given their best or worst to
the cash customers in an attempt
to win ring Immortality by beating
the boy from Detroit. May the
best man win!

The ikeable Dewey Johnson, for
mer Congressman from the Fifth
district, died too young. He was
admired by the cOlOred people and
in Congress did what he could to
push legislation friendly to the in
terests of the cOlOred people. In a
recent issue of the MIDWEST La
Dor, labor paper published at Du-
Iuth, appeared an article "FOr a
Better World to Live In" by CleOla
BannOn, cOlOred. The NAACP has
asked F.D.R. to name a Negro to
the Civil Service Board. 1t is
pointed out by Mill Citians that no
Negro has been appointed to the
Minneapolis Post Office in Is
years, while in st. Paul during that
period 10 or more Negroes have re-
ceived appointments!
