San Antonio Symphony Orchestra has grown over six years into a major cultural asset. Attendance exceeds 103000 last year and is expected to rise. The ensemble, now 75 artists, earned national recognition as a major U.S. orchestra. A forthcoming grand opera festival at the municipal auditorium February 20-26 will feature 12 Metropolitan Opera stars in La Boheme Cavalleria Rusticana and Pagliacci. The Symphony Society of San Antonio seeks ongoing local support to keep the name San Antonio a synonym for good music.

Contested Claims Fuel Debate Over Taft Era Resolution
A pamphlet by These Days John TV Flyne rebuts claims about anti Semitism at the 1944 Republican resolutions committee meeting led by Ben Taft. Flynn argues William Gallner’s remarks and Hart’s speech drew misrepresentations while stressing that the seven point economic program of Hart’s group did not address race or religion. He asserts his review shows no direct antisemitic intent in the proceedings.

Goldstein plan for Jewish homeland in Palestine proposed
Dr. Tstae Goldstein of New York advocates a reparations style program to fund a Jewish home in Palestine for 1,009,000 to 1,800,000 homeless Europeans, arguing Germany should underwrite the project.
