86 copies. Excerpts from the Czech press of 6 February 1942 Ceské Slovo: "Bettering above all in the minds". We recently pointed out that our cultural life during the former regime was dominated exclusively by the Masons, many of whom were still in the most influential places and continued to work in the Masonic spirit. This was not to be decided again, which happened this time, that at the head of the exhibition "The People of His Fine Arts", i.e. at the top of a company organized by the Cultural Council, as patron of the Mason Dr. J. Kapras, stands as honorary chairman of the Freemason Prof. Max Švabinský and that in the honorary committee the Masons Ing. V. Běšinský, Central Director of the Electricity Works of the City of Prague, Dr. V. Pospišil, former Gouverneur of the National Bank, Prof. K. Štipl, Rector of the School of Arts and Crafts, Dr J. Třebický, President of the Chamber of Commerce and Commerce, is too much for this large exhibition. As the Masons understood how to abuse their influence, the Czech music has also been shown. After 1919, the Jew Dr. Löwenbach won the decisive word in this branch of culture, of course, a Mason. Together with him, the Logenbrothers conservatory professor Branberger and the Jude Dr. Bacher, bank director worked. Since the then conductor of the Czech Philharmonic Orchestra Čelanský did not want to submit to their orders, they rushed him out. Čelánský's successor then - as a reward and out of gratitude - very often invited the singer Bacher-Nesy, of course Jewish, to concerts with the Czech Phil- da d de se q dr rn less and more for a Jewish singer. And all this is on the conscience of the Freemasons. F.d.R.D.A.: gruberg the 24.4.1942.
