Get rid of the ;. A comment in ARexx is always /* Comment */. And an arexx script must always have a comment at the start to be recognised.

/* test.rexx */
ADDRESS COMMAND

As I said, you MUST have a comment at the start of the file, or RX won't recognise it as an ARexx script. It'll just give you:

Command returned 5/1: Program not found

because it thinks it's not an ARexx program.
