Founder of Palestine
Symphony, Dies
ZURICH. (JTA 1 — Bronislaw
Huberman. world renowned violin
ist and founder of the Palestine
j Symphony Orchestra, died last
week at his home at Vevey, on
j Lake Geneva. He was 64.
Born in Czenstochowa, Poland.
Huberman was a famous concert
violinist at the age of ten. His
j highly successful career in Eu-
| rope was interrupted by the
growth of Nazism. In 1936 he was
forced to resign the directorship
of tile Violin Master School at. the
State Music Academy because of
his open, vigorous opposition to
the rapidly developing Nazi move
ment. Following Hitler's assump
tion of power in Germany he pub
licly refused to appear with the
Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra.
He was an ardent supporter of
Zionism and in 1934 while making
a concert tour of Palestine he de
cided to form a symphony orches
tra composed chiefly of German
Jewish refugees. Its first concert
in 1936 under Arturo Toscanini
was hailed as a success.
He made a number of concert
tours of the United States, tire
first in 1896. In 1941 he came to
America where he lived until the
end of the war at which time he
returned to Europe to offer his
services for fund raising drives for
the St. Thomas Hospital in Lon
don and the La Scala Opera
House, in Milam.
Dr. Silver, Secretary
Marshall Confer on
Zionist Problems
WASHINGTON, (JTA) — Rabbi
Abba Hillel Silver, president of the
Zionist Organization of America
conferred with Secretary of State
George C. Marshall on current
Zionist problems. Dr. Silver also
saw several Senators.
Abdul Rahman Azzam Pasha,
secretary-general of the Arab
League, who was received by Mar
shall earlier, told a press confer
ence that the League does not fa
vor the Palestine Arab Higher
Committee’s boycott of the UN
Special Committee on Palestine
and that It had attempted unsuc
cessfully to prevent the move.
Adding that he personally was
opposed to such action, Azzam
Pasha said he believed that "it is
better to try again and not take a
negative attitude.”
Azzam Pasha told reporters that
the Arabs have very little re
sources and money to further their
case, in contrast with "world Jew
ry.” He further said that the Zion
ists were using the ‘‘sentimental
upheaval about the displaced per
sons” to advance their political
aims in Palestine.
