VOL. 19 NOVEMBER, 1916 NO. 3 EDITORIAL COMMENT •I Some wiseacre once remarked that things arc always attained in the end by keeping everlastingly at it." We are hoping to verify this prediction so far as the Guarantee Fund is con- cerned. Launched in October 1915, as it was, fourteen months have pass- er!, and the minimum sum, a mere $1000 in subscriptions has not yet been obtained. Whetherthisisfroma misunderstanding of the project, whether from a total lack of interest in the subject, or whether just from carelessness, the matter has been over- looked, we are none of us prepared to say. Wc would prefer to console our- selves with the first and third rea- sons rather than the second. To clear up any misunderstanding members have been urged many times to write the Central Office for complete information. It is an im- possibility to repeat the explanations regarding the fund, month after mouth in Amerika Esperantisto. But again: At the national Congress in San Francisco, 1915, the Association was given the authority to organize a Guarantee Fund following the idea of the one so successfully used by the British Esperanto Association. As it was seen that for the first year or two we could not expect the large sums subscribed to the British Fund, a min- imum was set for $1000. This was to he made up by subscriptions from our members in sums of $5. or multiples of $5. In the event of a deficit, a pro rata amount of each sum subscribed IS to he called into the treasury of the Central Office. For instance, having secured the minimum subscrip- tion of 51000., the Central Office ex- perienced thru efforts to increase the scope of its propaganda work ami enlarge its field, a deficit of $200., tin- pro rata call on each subscription of $5.00 would be $1.00 or 20 cents on the dollar. Is this clear? Regarding the second reason it is hard to conceive that there are E>s- perantists who have become interested in the possibilities of an Internation- al I uage; have even joined tin- national Association in by-gone days, and yet when "membership fee, — the ridiculous sum of 50c—"Guaran- tee Fund"—"subscription"—or any- thing of the sort is mentioned, change AMERIKA ESPERANTISTO I lie subject with that bored air which gives the impression of soaring in heights far above such matters of the rth-earthy. For all that this par- ticular individual knows of the sub- ject,—and in many cases, even cares,— the Central Office is supported in luxury from some mysterious source; propaganda material, office supplies, stenographic service and the thousand and one incidentals which combine to make up a modern business office arc produced from the same unknown benefactor,—while the few in the forefront who endeavor to keep things going only *'howl for help once in a while because that's all part of the imc Can you imagine that kind of an Esperantist, those of you whom the description fits not at all? Well, they do exist and in not such small numbers either, as we can testify from rsonal experiences. For the third class,—the "Put- it- Offs"—we have little to say, trusting that when they reach this point, there will be little need of saying anything. Three words however, may be taken to heart by all three classes,—DO IT NOW! Additional Subscribers (See List in Last Issue) 11. W. Yemans, California. rkcley Esperanto Rondo. M. S. Lane, California.

AMERIKA ESPERANTISTO From the very beginning Esper- anto has been handed out to the pub- lic in a timid, self deprecatory sort of a way, so far as its money value to the inquirer is concerned. We have virtually said "can't you spare a quarter for a cheap text-book and wron't you pay fifty cents to belong to our nation-wide organization." This has produced two results. First; many of those who become in- terested are hypnotized into a con- dition of fancied poverty; second, many worth-while prospects,—real business men and teachers, to whom Esperanto should appeal, are actually repulsed by the cheapness of every- thing connected with it. Either Esperanto has value; or it has not. If it has, let us sell it at somewhere near its market price. If it has not, let us confess the fact and discontinue any attempt to propo- gate it. Many years ago there lived in Phila- delphia a doctor whose reputation for skill was world-wide. There was a sick man in Cuba who made a special trip to the United States to consult this doctor. He was impress- ed with his appearance of knowledge after an interview of some length and received a supply of medicine. When he asked what the fee was, he was as- tounded to learn th it was two dollars. As he left the house he threw away the medicine into the strc It was to him an insult that he had given up his business and traveled hundreds of miles to find that so small a money value was placed upon the consultation which was so impor- tant to him. Are we not in much the same posi- tion Hasn't our experience distinct- ly proven that we fail to get the ma- jority of the men to whom Esperanto would appeal, or who in turn would be a help to Esperanto? The expenses of conducting the work of the Association in a satis- factory manner are much more than its income, and as long as it is a pure- ly propaganda affair they will con- tinue to be so. The conditions are met in only a partly satisfactory man- ner by voluntary contributions and the guarantee fund. The number of Sustaining and Special Members is not nearly as large as it should be. Eiving on voluntary contributions is uncertain and decidedly wearing on the few officers who bear the responsi- bility of our work. Lack of sufficient funds has not only handicapped our work so far as propaganda is concerned but it has made it necessary for us to oper- ate our Central Office with an in- sufficient clerical force and a conse- quent apparent inefficiency. We are subjected to all sorts of complaints, ranging from mild protest to absolute insults and the worst of it is that we apparently deserve it. It the Association is worth main- taining it is time that there was a r vision of it membership fees to something which will more nearly approach self-support. The first effect may possibly be a dropping off membership,—but we doubt even that. Granted for the sake of argu- ment that there would be a decline; wouldn't it be better to have a thous- and active members paying two or three dollars a year dues than four times that number paying fifty cents? It is human nature to value pro- ducts at their purchase price and a table membership fee in E.A. X A. would make each member feel that he had some appreciable share in the support of the movement, and consequently would be an impetus ard more active efforts for the progress of Esperanto in Usono.
