But they would not have come, if they had not loved music. There are as many music lovers in Washington I am sure, who would attend the symphony concerts if the charge of admission were made possible for them. But we need the support of everyone in Wash- ington, the great organization in par- ticular, as naturally the National Or- chestra cannot survive without support.” Sees Radio as Help. It is Mr. Frost's opinion that the Tadio should prove a help to the future myulmy of lymphony orchestras. 5 People will grow tired of the jazz music l.flef they hear it constantly over the radio,” he said, “and at the same time, the radio will help to educate the taste of the public for good music, by the concerts of more serious music Wwhich are now broadcasted.” Mr. Frost declares that he has been 8 lover of music since he can remem- ber, and as a boy of 8, he loved to play tunes on: a small violin. “I played so much as a little boy,” laughed, “that one day, my luther took my fiddle away from me and locked it up, saying he wanted me to grow up to be a business man and not a fiddler.
