ar to the ones submitted  last year and which failed  to pass.     It is to he hop.
that every member will study these carefully and vote for or against them as each
may deem best for the Association.    It would hardly be necessary to state that your

EANA  unless he Joii          <> the TEA.     Many p'       ns resent  the  idea  of compulsion.
Our good friend Sro Scott believes these changes will be helpful to our Asso-
ciation. He may be right and we regret to be drawn in opposing these amendments.
But the situation is such that our silence might be construed into a belief upon the
part of some that \\«- *{<>ired the changes. We voted against these amendments
last year although iiiom of tie- persons supporting us were for them. We belie\
the changes undesirable and believe tie- members are entitled to know our views and
ir Is in that spirit that we publish this statement.

Karaj ge-sami        ioj :
Estas nia bedŭrinda devo 6iun jaron rememorigi nin ke dum la monato de Aprilo,
1917, unu el la  i>lej noblaj homoj de la mondo mortis.            kiam ni memorae ke
Ludoviko Zamenhof mortis, ni immoras ke nur lia korpo mortis, ear lia spirito. la
mirinda spirito de homaranismo, la spirito dn boms unueco kiun li tiel fort*- Inspiria
en la mondon, ne mortis Kun lia korpo, sed daŭre vivas kaj vivos, vivos clam kun
kreskanta forto, ĉiam venkante clan obstaklon. Obstakloj ekzistas, kaj tiu fakto
das la kialo por nia kunl&o en la same nobla vojo kiun komencis nia majstro kaj
laŭ kiu ni devas marŝi tra la jaroj al la brilega tago de lino venko.
Ni ne pensu pri la morto <le nia amata majstro kun prema malĝojo; kun bedaitro,
e, memorante ke li vivie por tie! Bankta c< ke li atingia sian celon kiam li. per
nekalkulebla memofero, kreia la belan. mirindan lingvon de monda frateco, nian
K>     a n ton.    Ne est us lia deziro ke ni lam depremu niajn korojn per peza malĝojo,
(1 li certe dezirus ke ni. memorante la indan celon de ESsperantO, ankafi donu niajn
vivojn ĝbje ĉiun tagon por la  kaŬZO a I  kiu li dedieis kaj fine donis sian vivon.
Mi  vere kredas k              Zamenhof donis sian vivon al Esperanto.    Li  ne BBtis
■ maijiina kiam la morto forprenia lin. Li devug est! vivinta pli multajn Jarojn,
sed la jaroj de pom do, de Benftesa laborado, de noado al si mem la komfei jn
benojn de ordinara vivo, kaj fine la profundega mal&ojo kiu disĜlris lian koron dum
la popola Interbuĉado de la Monda Milito, detruis Ua koron, fortrancis de li la
deziron vivadi. La malhelaj nuboj de interfrata buĉado guprenventa lian horizonton
kaj al li la suno ĉesis brill; Ŝajne la mondo respondis al li: "VI dedieis vlan vivon al
iluzio; tii ne volas uioudan intei fratecon; ni nur volas human gangon por satiui tan
malamon; tlal vi plibone tnortU, kaŝante vian  lion ton en morto.1'
La mola, amema  Zamenhof a koro estis romplta.    spite de la Keona spirito kiu
estis subteninta lin dum longaj jaroj, li kviete endormi&ia post tri jaroj de la terura
iĉado.    OnJ dirafl ke H mortis car li ne povis pli longe rigardi la Interbataladon.
