secretary treasurer; Kathryn

Society staff, recording secretary;
and Richard Fox of the State Fair

The purpose of the committee
will be to collect historical source
materials on the Negro in Mime
sofa and to conduct a program of
research, discussion and writing on
the subject Several mussum ex-
hibits on the Negro are being
planned.
The impetus for the creation of
the committee came from discus
sions held earlier this year by
Cecil Newman; Russell w. Fridley,
Director of the Minnesota His
torical Society; and John r. Beng
tson, member of the Historical
Society staff.
Out of these discussions came a
decision TO hold a series of meet
ings to which persons who might
be interested in helping to promote
a study of the story of the Negro
in Minnesota history would be in
wted. Meetings were held in Feb
ruary, May, and August, and the
response was gratifying.
Mr.. Newman pointed out that
the story of the Negro in Mime
sofa history had been almost en-
tirely neglected, and he stressed
that a real need existed for a COM
prehensive study of this subject.
Mr.. Fridley said that the Mime
sofa Historical Society was inter
ested in promoting the study Of
all aspects of the states history,
and that the record of the history
of the state would never be com
plete until it included a study of
the part that had been played by
all its ethnic groups, including the
Negro.
Mr.. Fridley explained, however.
that since the resources Of the
Society were limited, such a study
could not be undertaken without
considerable help from others.
John Bengtson revealed that the
Minnesota Historical Society pos
sessed a good file dating back to
the 1ss0s of the various Negro
newspapers which have been. and
are being, published in Minnesota.
He said that this collection of
newspapers would perhaps con-
stitute the most important source
for the study of the Negro in Min
nesota
In October the governing body
OF the Minnesota Historical Soci-
ETY. officially recognized the COM
mittee and gave il a warm ex-
preston Of approval.

capacity of secretary-treasurer
