Dodson, head of the North Carolina OMBE. John Duncan, director of the Midwest Piedmont _ Area Business Development Association, agrees that black businesses need capital, but he contends that the money is there, and if a businessman has the idea and the expertise in business, he can obtain the money. "Black America spends nine billion dollars a year," says Duncan, "which makes us ninth in purchasing power in the world. We are ahead of Canada.'' With all that money, black businessmen should be able to find investors within the community, - through bank lending programs or private investors. ^ A more serious problem in minority business enterprise is the lack of knowledge about See Minority, Page 2 . 2 'I - -g-i-- ^-i.- >-.-- -- ^ . - ? ; ? ..., . , ? r-^mr=s-^Tm- ' 1 ron-Sale 5,000 weekly readers" Saturday, iVor |F^H| Former Pant fMalloy r leader in the Winston-Sa^lem Black Paniner Barty, who is wanted by police in connection with an Octo ? ?J fornia, is in a 'Las "Vegas ?hospit&^HMtf&lyzed from a gunshot wound, according to reliable sources in Winston-Salem.

The letter statedthat the mayors and elected officials organizations as well as the Community Development Directors Association have launched a strong campaign urging HUD to rescind the regulation that 75% of local Community Development Funds be spent for and on low and moderate income areas. This would mean that instead of concentrating the federal money on programs to improve poverty areas, such as sites in East Winston, the money could be divided among all areas of the city, rather than where it is most needed. The Region IV Citizens Council also opposes the CD Directors' proposal that HUD require onlv two _ public hearings for proposed local Community Development activities^ __ ? ? The Council stated that it fears that Pat Harris, Secretary of Housing and Urban Development may be leaning toward these proposals. They urge a massive citizen movement to protest.
