Jews, Muslims, Hindus, Catholics, Protestants and many other religions mix in harmony as one cosmopolitan society, even though the same treaty prohibits it in its written text.

Two Spanish workers were today the first to receive their awards at the City Hall by Mayor Adolfo Canepa.

The two workers run into the blazing smoke filled, blazing flat and pulled out a local woman who had been sleeping in her flat and was not aware of the fire.
