p:|pg2 S ML Smith to ‘educate public by running for governor THE BATTALION Page 3 FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 1974 By MARY RUSSO and JIM CRAWLEY Staff Writers Sherry Smith spent her day of gubernatorial campaigning for the Socialist Workers Party (SWP) educating her audiences. “I don’t think I’ll win but we re running a race to educate the pub lic,” Smith said. Speaking for Political Forum at lunch Thursday and before the TAMU-Civil Liberties Union the same evening. Smith spoke on rights guaranteed by democracy and Marxism. Presently the Socialist Party is suing several government officials. “The suits will extend democratic rights to the people,” Smith said. Smith pointed out that real democratic rights don’t exist for minorities, “although they have been granted on paper.” “The capitalist’s rule of thumb is to divide and conquer,” she said. The Socialists, in Texas, are cur rently suing Secretary of State Mark White over the present state law requiring parties to list their con tributors. The SWP contends that this will give the state a “ready made enemies list. ” Regarding her possible election as governor. Smith said, “I think that Texas government would look entirely different if the SWP got into office. ” During the meeting it was pointed out that Ms. Smith is too young to be governor. The legal age is 30. Smith is presently 29. Ms. Smith is running against four other candidates in next week’s election. These include the present governor, Dolph Briscoe; the Re publican, Dr. Jim Cranberry; the Raza Unida choice, Ramsey Muniz and the American party hopeful Sam McDonnell. I.AKi:\ ik\v cun 3 Miles N.
