Club Troika is going in for Art

In these days, with the grease

at all difficult to get fine artists
even in a night club-which the
Troika, strictly speaking, isn't.
For instance, to this Russian
restaurant and cabaret this week

contralto, who is just classic

HOPKINS DUE
TO TAKE UP
LONG FIGHT
All Public Works In
Louisiana Expected
To Be Cancelled If
State Law Passed

WASHINGTON, April II. Up
with hostilities between Senator
Long D-LA) and Roosevelt men
flaring into the open again, the
capital watched Wednesday in the
expectation that Harry l. Hopkins.
relief administrator, may be the next
to crack down on Longs newest
plans.
SO far Hopkins has refrained from
saying anything about the news from
Baton Rouge that a bill has been
put forward TO place relief money I'M
der the control Of the state admin
istrAtion which Long directs through
Governor O. TX. Allen.
But the capital noted the asser-
ton OF Secretary Ickes, PWA admin
istrator, that public works funds
"wont's be used TO build up Sena-
tor Longs political machine" and re-
called that Hopkins, too, had acted
tn the case OF other states where
Inc charged politics had become en-
tangled with relief.
Hopkins was known TO be follow
ing the Baton Rouge Developments
closely and was said TO be saving
his fire until he knows Just what
ts to become OF the relief bill in queS-
ton.
Just what he might do IL the re-
lief measure passes was not diSclos-
ed. Ickes statement Tuesday took the
form OF n threat to cancel all pub
lie works projects In louisiana
threat which brought from Long the
reply that Ickes might go slap damn

The ban was lifted, however. when
PWA lawyers found that the Law
would not interfere with repayment
Df project loans.
Although SO per cent of relief in
Louisiana has been paid for by the
federal government. Louisiana re-
ceived its April grant Of 81 .367. 962.
After Hopkins had demanded in
creased contributions, the state leg
kslature recently authorized local
taxes expected to bring in 81. 400. 900
for the care OF the Unemployables
