Permission to establish a German Opera and Theater where the actors, singers, musicians and theatrical staff will be exclusively Jewish was granted yesterday by the government under the condition that non-Jews will not be admitted to the audience to watch the performances. The staff will embrace all the best-known artists ousted from German opera companies recently because they were Jews.
The establishment of the new company will be aided by the Central Jewish Relief Fund.
