An announcement of importance to fans comes today from CBS, with the news that the system has taken over the Hudson theater. and will open 1t as a theater de- voted entirely to broadcasting. The Radio Playhouse, as it will be called, will open with appropriate ceremonies Feb 3.
 The news means that Columbia will join NEG in opening major programs to the public, and 1t will undou btedly again stir up argu- ment as to the advisability of aud. fences at broadcast. There has been a great rise of public feeling against the presence Of listeners in the studio, especially at comedy programs. Eddie Cantor has de- cIared himself against studio audi cnces, while Ed Wynn leads the opposing school of opinion.
 There is no question but that radio audiences feel cheated when they hear q studio audience laugh ing at antics which they are un- able to watch. Whether this feeling is important enough to force tho end of the studio audiences has not yet been generally decided apparently it has by Columbia.

Perigaud i'll.
Speak at Rally
On Thursday

Louis Perigaud, French Socialist
and Secretary Of the World Com
mittee Against War and Fascism,
will speak on the present acute sit
uation in France at a mass meeting
arranged by the French Workers
Club, "Clarte," this Thursday eve
ming, $3.50 o'clock, at the Amalga-
mated Hall, 915 Eighth Ave-, be-
tween 54th and 55th SITS.
Perigaud will be followed by
other eminent speakers and the
showing Of the talking picture
''Comradeship," which has created
a sensation in Paris, Berlin, Lon
don and many other cities.
Perigaud'S address is Of the ut
most significance in view Of the i'm
pending class struggles In France
between the fascist gangs, supported
by the government, and the united
front Of Socialist, Communist and
non-party workers, and the attempt
Of the French fascist group, "Croix
de Feux," the instigators Of the
bloody events of Feb. 10 in Paris,
to spread its influence among the
French population in this city. A
newly organized local branch of the
"Croix de Feux" only recently held
a meeting at the Seamer's House at
10Th st. and 18th Ave. The meeting
was invaded by French workers Of
the "Clarte," who distributed anti
fascist leaflets, and called upon
those present to reject the fascist
propaganda.

New Interest
In Magazine

II would express to my husband
the desire to join working -class
organization. If he quarrelled, I
would let him rave, and go to the
meetings." This was part Of one
letter received from Brooklyn
woman this week by the Contest
Judges of the Working Woman
magazine. The letter was in re-
Spouse to a contest, details of which
were printed in the November issue
Of the Working Woman. The con-
test was started by the letter of
woman who asked for advice on
what to do in order to attend work
ing class meetings, since her nus
band won't let her. In the first
week Of the contest, great interest
has been evidenced By letters COM
ing daily to the Working Woman
office from working class wives and
mothers throughout the country.
"If I had to stay home" says one
woman, Il would use these very
conditions. Iwould invite OF her
housewives and single women and
organize a ermane MT woman's
group. I would use my husbands
hobby, by getting in touch with the
nearest party unit, and getting them
to assign a member to approach him
from the angle of his hobby, for
instance, a chess player, or one in
terested in dramatics"
Bring your literature home with
you," says one woman.
From being backward, my hus-
band has gone way ahead of me.
He demands that my first allegiance
be paid to the working class"
The contest will be closed mid
night, January Is, 1885. Letters must
reach the Contest Editor, Working
Woman, so East 18th Street, New
York, by that time. Sixteen prizes

per Of White Rose food, year and
half year subs to various publica-
tons, and an initiation and three
months dues payment to the Inter
national Workers Order, should win
ne- Of this prize wish to join. The
flow of letters indicate that the
question raised by The woman who
wrote the first letter, is a vital one
in the lives of working women.

US. Bombing
Planes Near
Soviet China

SHANGHAI, Nov. 12.-For the
second time in month, the Kuo-
mintang government has announced
it has captured Jukin, former cap
ital of the Central Chinese Soviet
Republic. The first time the Kuo-
min, Kuomintang News Agency,
announced the capture of Juikin
was on Oct. Is.
The fact of the matter is, the Red
Army has been evacuating Juikin
for some time now, due to the heavy
concentration of American bombing
planes in the vicinity. The man bulk
of the army has been moving south
ward for a drive against the forces
of General Chen Chi Tang of
Kwantung province. A section of the
Red Army is marching through
Human province on its way to join
the Red Army in Szechuan, the ex-
IRENE western province Of China,
where the Red Army has been gain
ing victory after victory.
Chang Kai-shek is announcing
the capture" Of Juikin as "com-
plete victory" over the Communist
forces. But this estimate is made
mainly for outside consumption, as
it is known in China that the
Chinese Soviets. despite retreats in
Fukien and Kiangsi provinces, have
been gaining more territory and
strengthening their forces in other
places, particularly in Szechuan.

Rent Strikers
to Give Report
At Hes airing

Darwin R. James and Aaron
Rabinowitz, representing the State
Housing Board, will meet with rep
resentatives of the Fred F. French
Co. and the Knickerbocker Village
Tenants Association, today at 1870
pm. at the Offices of the State
Housing Board, to thrash out the
differences between the 300 tenants
and the management.
The tenants Of the new housing
project are asking for the abate-
ment of one months rent on the
ground that the buildings were not
completed when they moved in, and
they have been subjected to much
inconvenience and added expense
due to the unfinished condition of
the apartments.
Joseph P. Sicily, president of the
Knickerbocker Village Tenants AS
ISOLATION, said: 1.-THE tenants OF
Knickerbocker Village are prepared
to prove the justice Of their claims
by conclusive evidence that the Fred
F. French Co. has not lived up to
their obligations to the tenants. The
State Housing Board has a definite
responsibility in this matter. The
statute under which the Fred F.
French Co. was enabled to borrow
over 100000 for the construction
Of Knickerbocker Village, set the
Housing Board up as the guardians
of the tenants rights. This is mat
ter involving not only the tenants
Of Knickerbocker Village, but the
entire future of model housing in
this state"
The results of the conference to-
day will be made known to the
tenants at an open hearing the
K.V.T.A. has called for tonight at
P. S. 1T, Market and Monroe
Streets. Representatives Of the Fred
F. French Co. and the State Hous
ing Board are being invited to at
tend and present their side of the
controversy.

Hopkins Lauds
Privat Aid
For JObless

Speaking at the Hotel AStor Sun
day night over a radio broadcast,
Federal Relief Administrator Harry
L. Hopkins, at a dinner arranged
for initiating the funds drive Of the
Federation for Support of Jewish
Philanthropic Societies, sought to
whitewash charges Of excessive
waste Of relief funds. At the same
time, his speech was the sounding
keynote in the nationwide drive for
support Of the private aid and well
fare societies.
A works program for mere sub
sistence wages in line with the in
creasing forced labor turn of the
works projects throughout t he
country, was eyisioned in Hopkins
speech, which echoed the usual plat
itudes Of the Roosevelt promises for
old age, health and unemployment
and social insurance.
Lauds Administration
Replying to charges Of shameless
waste of relief funds" made two
days pervious by Senator Borah in
Washington, Hopkins lauded his re-
lief administration, saying: NO
amount of resentment on the part
Of those who object even to the all
too inadequate benefits that are
now going to the needy unemployed
can alter the realism of 10000
families, or 100000 people, whose
very bread is dependent upon re-
lief"
One and one-half millions of
youth have come into an already
glutted labor market each year since
the beginning of the crisis in 1929,
Hopkins said, pointing out that with
recurrent drops in production and
the need Of the aged to cling with
greatest tenacity to what jobs are
available, little hope can be held
out for their absorption into private
industry.
Sounding the knell of what form
the entire F. E. r. A. relief admin
istration is turning to-forced labor
for subsistence - Hopkins said: "a
method must and will be found to
provide a way Of life for millions
Of these people that will assure
them the opportunity for earning
an income which will provide de-
cent American standard of living"
Would Make Jobless Pay
Under system of unemployment
insurance envisioned by Hopkins in
his radio address, he broadly
limited as to what form administra-
ton plans would take, form pro-
viding compulsory contribution by
the employed with large-scale forced
labor projects for the millions of
unemployed.
Unemployment Insurance, old
age and sickness benefits, care of
children have been provided in al
most every civilized country in the
world" he said. ITO say that our
industrial system cannot provide for
this security is, indeed, to admit de-
feat. A very modest proportion of
the total national income would
give this security"
Hopkins speech, given as it was
ct the launching of a drive of pri-
vate charity enterprises, folio S
closely upon similar broadcasts by
Roosevelt and Newton D. Baker,
chairman Of the 1884 Mobilization
for Human Needs" and other high
pressure drives to obtain private re-
lief funds which strap the burden
Of relief costs more firmly upon the
backs Of the working population.

Bronx Meeting
Wires Protest
On Scottsboro

At a Scottsboro rally held under
the joint auspices of the Modern
Thought Center, West Bronx Youth
League and the Morris Branch Of
the American League Against War
and Fascism on Friday night, the
following telegram was adopted and
sent to President Roosevelt:
Two hundred workers, profess
SIGNALS and intellectuals assembled
at the Modern Thought Center,
1900 Walton Avenue, New York, on
Nov. 8, 1894, to protest the con-
tinued Imprisonment of the nine
innocent Scottsboro boys and de-
mand their immediate, safe and
unconditional release. We hold you
responsible for their safety"
Richard B. Moore, National Field
Organizer of the International La
Dor Defense, told of the efforts of
Samuel s. Leibowitz, renegade de-
Tense attorney; William H. Davis,
Rev. King and other Harlem Negro
misleaders, to disrupt the defense,
and of the reputation of Leibowitz
and his gang by the Scottsboro
boys and their mothers.
The audience contributed $1675
