Radio fans who have been fol lowing the -retirement of Toscan lnl as conductor of the New York Philharmonic symphony will re gret to learn that Furtwaengler, distinguished German conductor, has declined the post.

The German di rector turned down the New York offer because of criticism from anti-naii circles in the Am erican metropolis. ; He stated In part: "I am not a politician but an exponent of German music which belongs to all humanity regardless of poli tics. ... I propose to postpone my season . . . until the public realizes that politics and music are apart."
