City Council here, submits petitions signed by 222 people — seven times

Long Feb. 10 to be on the ballot for the May 1 election.

those without.

society that represents the interests of working people, not the tiny
minority of the capitalist rulers. We will be taking our working-class
program far and wide throughout Dallas and the southwest region. Join us!”

Emmett F. Fields “ Atheism is more than just the knowledge that gods do
not exist, and that religion is either a mistake or a fraud. Atheism is
an attitude, a frame of mind that looks at the world objectively,
fearlessly, always trying to understand all things as a part of nature.
