THE QUESTION: Should San Dier o .have a municipal band?

Bis ~xcclle!9CY, Charles F. Buddy, Bishop of San Diego Diocese: "A San Diego Municipal Band would be a forward mark. It would spell progress !or our city. There arc so ·many good t~~idy~~~r:ceba~n~~:t~ \\i~ul:af~; Park m connection with the organ concerts. These ~o;lc~h~ ~:rl~;,n~~e famous through-

W. H. Johnson, advertisinr solicitor for Southern Cross La ltlesa: "A tax levy to supPorl a municipal band would be so S!llall that it would not be no- ticed on the tax bill and just think of the enjoyment daily concc1·Ls would' brin_tt to tourists and othc1• citizens! I have h<'ard it said tkat tourists were attracted to Long Beach because of ils municipal band. We lrnvr the fine Balboa Park, Cultut·cd musical people and most everybody enjoys a good band. The tax levy in mills would be so small the average taxpayer would not notice it. San Diego

lags behind in not having a band that is sup- ported by the taxpayers." L. L. Hannah, ~fission Beach: ''There should a band concert every day in San Diego or Mission Beach. We've had a great boys' band for many years and services have been given free or charge. Now why not have a City band and .perhaps many of these youngsters could qualify and become m~mbers. All this municipal band thought needs 1s for some civic-mindc-d f!roup to ~ct back or it and present to the public the benefits th~t.would come to San Diego. Sure I'm for a municipal band." A. H.
