News clippings in which Communists ask the City Council for a permit for a street parade as a demonstration for unemployment. The Council voted against the permit 4 to 1. Commissioner Clyde was alone favoring their plea. Mayor Baker did not want to hear Fred Walker because he was a known Communist. Another article is regarding the trial of I. Davidson, 59, a Black orator.
