PUBLIC TAKES OVER
THE GRAND OPERA

New York's old -Four Hundred"
made the Metropolitan Grand Opera
a great social center, and in order to
be a real 4 Hundreder il was neces-
sary to "buy a box" in the Golden
Horseshoe for the Winter season.
Thus raw young America bought the
World championship in the Grand
Opera industry.
But milli0naires we're among those
who lost their shirts" in financial
panics, depressiOns and ''recessions"
The Metropolitan Opera programs
grudgingly went on the air, and
Saturday afternoons now find mill
lions of American music lovers en-
joying the privileges Of opera which
at one time belonged only to an ex-
elusive few. That's about the best
thing that can be said in praise Of
radio. For several years the Metro
pOlitan hasn't had the least idea Of
how to balance the budget"
The Grand Opera is now described
as "a national institution" by mill
lions Of radio listeners, and since
the public has succeeded the "ex-
elusive few" there seems to be no in
consistency in asking the new un-
seen audience to send the MetrOpoli-
tan a dollar or up. Ex-President
Hoover states the matter this way:
ut is important in these times when
such great cultural agencies have
been blackened out of all Europe
that we make sure Of their preserva-
tiOn for the world"
