Calls Meeting
For Defense of
Foreign-Born

NEW YORK = The reactionary
threat of General Hugh S. john
son, MIRA. head, of wholesale de-
portations of foreign born workers
was answered yesterday by the
Committee for Protection Of the
Foreign Born, with a call to all la
Dor organizations for an Emergency
Conference to be held next Monday
evening, at Manhattan Lyceum, 66
E. 4th st.

ent savage attacks on the foreign
born are part of the general fascist
terror unleashed by the employers
and their government agencies
against the whole working class,
notably on the West Coast where
vigilante bands and police are raid
ing and smashing the headquarters
of unions and other labor organi-
cations, and making wholesale ar
rests of militant workers, native
and foreign-born.
All trade unions and other work
ers' bodies, all groups opposed to
fascist reaction, are urged to send
delegates or representatives to the
conference which will open at 8
pm. at Manhattan Lyceum, Mon
day evening.

To End Orse
W orkers' Bill

BAYONNE, N. J.-JobIess work
ers filled the council chambers of
the Board of Commissioners here
on July II and forced the passing
of resolution endorsing the
Workers Unemployment and So
cial Insurance Bill.
At the initiative of the Unem-
ployment Council and the Commu-
mist Party of Bayonne, a united
front drive was started five weeks
ago to enlist the support of all
workers for the bill. Four unem-
ployed organizations were involved
in the fight. Signatures were col
lected on petitions circulated among
the employed and unemployed. To-
gether with the Unemployment
Council, the Non-P Partisan Unem-
ployed organizations were involved
in the campaign. AS a result, there
is hardly a working class organ
izations in the city that has re-
NAMED untouched by the Workers
Bill.
Bayonne is a Standard Oil town
with a population of 10000 and is
part of Hudson County, Mayor
Haeue's stronghold. Terror has al
ways been used against workers
here.
Negro workers are especially dis
eliminated against. Landlords are
conducting a vicious campaign
against Negro tenants, charging
exorbitant rents and evicting whole
sale. The victory on the Workers
Bill is being followed by organiza-
ton and struggle against the evic-
ton of Negro workers.

GALLANT LADY,. IS VEHICLE OF
 ANN HARDING
Lovely Star Comes to Cap itol Tomorrow in
 Poignant Drama

Gallant Lady" the 20th Gen. tury Picture starring Ann Hard ing, which opens at the Capitol TReatre Wednesday, presents one of the most poignantly dramatic and appealing stories which has come to the screen this season.
 Noted for her understanding portrayal of feminine character, in this picture this capable star has unique opportunity to exer- else to the fullest her ability to rise to emotional heights. The story deals with a young woman, mother of an illegitimate child, who is forced to assign the child for adoption immediately after it's birth, agreeing never to see it again.
 As the years pass she becomes a phenomenally successful business woman, and at the height of her fame accidentally meets again the child whom she had counted lost to her. The story brings her to the point where she is forced to choose between several courses of action and is c1imaxed in tense- ly dramatic scene which gives full play to Miss Hardings histronic capabilities.
 Joseph M. Schenck and Daryl F zanuck, who produced Gallant Lady for United Artists release have surrounded Miss Harding with an exceptionally able supporting cast. This array of talent includes such names as Give Brook, who achieved such notable success in "Calvacade," Otto Kruger, famed Broadway star of Counsellor at Law" and others.

INCOMES ARE ESTIMATED TO
 BE GOING UP

NEW YORK, Nov. 20.-A sharp curve upward in the income of the American people this year is indi- cated by estimates of leading trade analysts who place the income around nine billion more than last year
 This reversal of the pendulum which has swung steadily in the wrong direction from 1929 when the national income was roughly estimated at eighty six billion, six million dollars, to 1883, when it was about forty-nine billion, five hundred and sixty million dollars, is believed by some economists to form the groundwork of broad concave base which will sustain a relative degree of prosperity over a number of years.
