No. 3
There is a universal desire for an
organization which would include the
Local, the National and a Universal
membership with the payment of ONE
dues. While proposal for such a uni-
fication have been put forth at various
times during Esperanto's advance, at no
time, however, was there such an ardent
desire for consolidation than at present.
The reason for this is obvious: the pre-
sent chaos and duplication in Esperanto
certers and, last but not least, the uni-
versal depression, which does not fit in
with the requirements of dues to several
organizations.
For four years this problem has oc-
cupied the universal Esperanto con-
gresses and three times it was tabled.
Finally at the last congress in Paris a
committee was elected to draft a plan
for a reorganization. This committee
submitted its plan and lo — the new
organization is to be a federation of
national societies, with U. E. A. ojr with-
out it, if U. E. A. does not want to join.
To our knowledge the members of U.E.A
were never given a chance to vote on
this matter, but the directors of U.E.A.
refused  to  join  this  new  organization
under the conditions presented to them.
Perhaps they knew why.
The new organization, Unjversala
Federacio Esperanta, or U. F. E. intends
to adopt a delegito system, a yearbook
and services like U.E.A. In other words:
instead of simplification we shall have
duplication of exactly the same nature.
Conflicting reports are coming to the
Central Office. One day we are informed
that U. E. A. has agreed to join the new
federation, which is to be renamed
U. E. A. and the next day we receive
denials of such an agreement. One day
an outcry: the new organization wants
to murder U. E. A. and appropriate all
its merits; — the next day: U. E. A. is
stubborn and refuses to yield to the
wishes of the Esperantists. Accusa-
tions, arguments pro and con, statements
of conflicting nature by mail or pamplets
reach this office almost daily. And may
we add: some are far from inspiring
us in the spirit of a "sankta harmonio".
"U. E. A. is stagnant", U. E. A. needs
reforming", are some of the arguments.
We all know that the management of
U. E. A. should be pepped up to better
conform with the pace of our time, the
30
AMERIKA ESPERANTISTO
magazine "Esperanto" should be the
central forum for all things Esperanto in-
stead of being more of a literary jewel,
but, says samideano Alfred D. Dennison
in a letter to the Central Office, "if U. E.
A. needs some cleansing and reforming,
I propose that we do it from inside
rather than by external attack", and
he proposes that the national societies
should join U. E. A. so numerously under
a joint membership arrangement that
they will gain a voting control and thus
institute any needed reforms through
the ballot.
Above all that has been said there is
one outstanding fact; that the merits
of U. E. A. 's twenty five years' activity
are far greater than any shortcomings
which the most sanguine opponent might
use as an argument for U.E.A.'s disso-
lution.    Let this be settled.
But whose fight is this? Are we dis-
satisfied ? Did we start all this rumpus ?
We did not! Just exactly two years
ago, in our January-February number
of this periodical,* we extolled the co-
operation of E. A. N. A. with U. E. A.,
which has remained unchanged to this
day.
To all appearance this fight for su-
premacy in the movement seems to con-
sist of a lot personal elements within
certain boundaries of central Europe.
The Orient keeps out, so does Australia
and South America. And let us add
loudly   and    emphatically   through    a
* Any new reader who wishes to get this

megaphone: so does "North America".
We can assure all our readers and mem-
bers that this administration will do
nothing which would in any way become
detrimental or destructive to our cause.
This does not mean that we are standing
idly and with crossed arms grinningly
enjoy the other fellows' fight. Far from
it! Let those who started it all come
to an agreement first and then, when
the smoke of the battle has cleared a-
way our E. A. N. A. through its elected
estraro, or still better, through its as-
sembly in congress, will decide its future
allegiance.
We know that some members are
holding back with their renewals, wait-
ing to see whether the same dollar will
pay for two organizations) We also
know cases where members suspected
us to join in the disintegration of U.E.A.
Both factions are wrong. The relation-
ship between E. A. N. A. and U. E. A. is
just as friendly now and based on co-
operation as it has been for the last
three or four years.
Change or no change: let us keep our
own house in order. Let us strengthen
our own organization. Renew your
membership, if you have not done so
and get a new member in as a sign of
good will. May all unaffiliated clubs
become Chapters of the countrywide
association.
And in conclusion let us emphasize
that"No matter what the results of this
reorganization movement will be, only
a STRONG E. A. N. A. will be a desirable
prize for the victor".
SAMIDEANO SCHERER will Travel Again
but this time through the United States as a Special Delegate of E, A.
N. A. Full details of his extensive program of lectures, starting with

San Antonio, Texas "The San Antonio Sun-

ing Editorial written by the columnist Jeff
Davis, dealing with the Esperanto classes given
by our samideano William Plampin. This article

glad to answer inquiries.
Spring Valley, Wise, Samideano Theodore
V. J/aiiasse is spreading the gospel of Esper-
antism by writing articles in the local papers.

a result.
Austin, 'Texas. "The Daily Texan" is print-
ing lessons in Esperanto prepared by Collier
Yoguess and A. Kenngott. These lessons are
very clear and printed with the Esperanto

Central Office and other information agencies
are given at the end of each lesson.
Seattle, Wash, The Seattle Esperanto So-

Cleveland, 0. A reception in honor of the
five newly organized Esperanto classes in Cleve-
land, was held Friday, January 20th at 8 P. M.
in the First Unitarian Church on Euclid Ave. at
E. 82nd St. These classes are composed of more
than 3 scores of students under the tutorship of
Prof. F. Tomich. The entertainment consisted
of speeches in Esperanto, music, singing, danc-
ing and a special address by Prof. Tomich.
Music was rendered by the Green Star Esper-
annto Dance Orchestra of seven pieces. The
slogan of the new Esperanto element under the
expert leadership of Mr. Tomich is "On to
Chicago", meaning that we may expert a very
lively crowd at the Chicago Congress. More
power to this new organization.
Los Angeles, Calif, The January program
of the Los Angeles Chapter has a monthly
meeting for Saturday the 14th and the enter-
tainment consists of singing and lectures by
the Globe-Trotter. An Esperanto hike was
held January 22nd. On the 25th the regular
monthly Spertulara Kunveno was held at
Public Library History Seminary. A special
social at Echo Park Community Building was
held Saturday evening the 28th. The Los
Angeles Chapter is making it a special point
to have some kind of an affair every week.
Such activity does not permit the movement
to become stale. The Secretary of this Chapter
will gladly send their monthly program to any
of the other Chapter Secretaries as a model of
local activity.
"/ New York, N. Y. The New York Esperanto
Society, Chapter No. 2, continues to hold their
regular monthly meeting and dinner every
first Saturday of the month. Pres. Lewis H.
Maury is organizing a publicity Committee
for the purpose of furnishing the metropolitan
papers with first class information about Es-
pe unto. It will be interesting to see the result
of this publicity work, which Ave find is entirely
in accord with our sentiment as expressed in
our last copy, page 10, under the heading of
"An Opinion from the Outside".
The very active Secretary and Treasurer
of this Chapter, Mir. P. Heger, Jr. is con-
stantly finding neiv ways of making the
meetings interesting, one of which is a more
ceremonial introduction oft new members.
Several new classes have been startet after
the holidays. Neiv York being the most im-
portant port of entry in the United States,
there is hardly a meeting of either the New
York Esperanto Society or the Esperanto Club
"Harmonio" when there is not some foreign
Esperanto visitor at the meeting. This is an
advantage the two New York Chapters enjoy
and which is one of the reasons why the New
York metropolitan area has more people
speaking Esperanto fluently than any other
Esperanto center in North America.

Armin F. Doneis naskiĝis en Milwaukee,
Wisconsin, en la jaro 1906 de aŭtrousonaj ge-
patroj. Tamen se lia vojaĝemo signifas ion,
ĝi certe indikas ke en li ankaŭ kaŝiĝas kvanto
da cigana sango. Post siaj lemejaj jaroj li
fails unu-jaran voĵaĝon per automobile tra la
tuta okcidento de Usono de Meksiko al Kan ado.
Tio okazis en 1922-1923 kiani tia vojtlĝo an-
koraŭ estis notindajo.
Je sia reveno al Milwaukee li dungiĝis kiel
metilernanto ĉe Allis - Chalmers Mfg. Co.,
granda fabrikejo de elektraj, vaporaj kaj hi-
draŭlikaj maŝinoj. Tie li spertiĝis je konstruado
muntaclo, funkciigado kaj provado de ĉiuspecaj
elektraj maŝinoj. Nokte kaj dum la plejmulto
de sia libertempo li studadis korespondan kur-
son kaj post kvar jaroj da praktika laboro kaj
teoria studo li fariĝis elektra inĝeniero kaj
provisto.
En la jaro 1925 li ekinteresiĝis pri Esper-
anto kaj aliĝis la lokan klubon.    Tamen, lerni
Esperanton li ne komencis ĝis frue enl928 kiam
li anticipis vojaĝon tra Eŭropo kune kun siaj
gepatroj. Tin vojaĝo vere efektiviĝis kaj dum
unu jaro li vagridis tra dekunu eŭropaj landoj
kaj Egiptujo. Dum tiu vagado li unue spertis
sian liberecon je la lingva problemo. Kun gran-
da ĝojo li konstatis ke li estis sendependa voja-
ĝanto  kiu  povas   iri   sian  propran  vojon  sen
helpo cle Thos.    Cook aŭ de iu angle fuŝparo-
lanta gviclisto.    Esperanto vere estis lia ŝlosilo
al bona kono de tiuj fremdaj landoj kiujn li
travagis.    Ce la 20-a Universala Kongreso de
Esperanto en Antverpeno li firme konvinkiĝis
pri la utilegeco kaj taŭgeco de Esperanto.   Tie
kaj tiam li juris ke li estos unu el la gutoj kies
konstanta frapado traboros la montoii granitan
kaj disbatos la obstinajn barojn.
Post sia reveno al Milwaukee en 1929 li
denove laboris ĉe Allis-Chalmers. Li ankaŭ
tuj komencis revivigi kaj reorganizi la lokan
klubon kiu estis disfalinta dum lia foresto. Li
AMERIKA ESPERANTISTO

dediĉis multan tempon al siaj devoj kiel ĝia
sekretano, kaj la klubo reentuziasmiĝis kaj
bone presperis.
Meze de 1930 li decidis dediĉi sian tutan
tempon al disvastigado de Esperanto. Li
partoprenis la Bostonan kongreson de EANA
kaj konatiĝis kun la gvidantoj de la Amerika
movado. Per tio li ricevis novan entuziasmon,
laboremon, kaj iniciatemon. Li iniciatis kel-
kajn novajn propagand-entreprenojn en Mil-
waukee, efektivigis instalon de Esperanto
libra.ro ĉe la loka publika biblioteko, kaj ini-
ciatis ĉiujaran ekspozicion de Esperanto ĉe la
Statu Eoiro de Wisconsin.
En 1931 li akiris la atestojn "pri Kapableeo"
kaj "pri Instruado" de -EANA, kaj instrms
kelkajn klasojn por komencantoj kaj pro-
gresintoj. La 24-a Kongreso de EANA kun-
venis en Milwaukee tiun someron kaj li ageme
estris organizon kaj preparojn por ĝi. Dum
tiu kongreso li estis elektita kiel kasisto de ma
asocio.
En aŭgusto de tiu jaro li transloĝiĝis al
Fort Lee, N. J., por esti laboranto ĉe la Centra
Oficejo de EANA. Tie li pasigis grandan
parton de si a tempo farante administrajn la-
borojn kaj plenumante grandan kvanton da
korespondado kaj libro-ekspedado por EANA.
Li sindone agis kiel presprovaj-legisto, help-
redaktoro, kaj recenzisto de Amerika Esperan~
tisto. Li ankaŭ helpis je organizado kaj in-
struado de diversaj Esperanto-kursoj.
Kiam Prof. Schjerve venis al TJsono en la
aŭtuno por alporti la Cseh-metodon, oni nomis
S-ron Doneis reprezentanton kaj organizanton
de la Centra Oficejo por prepari la propagan-
don kaj prizorgi la glatan iradon de la unua
Cseh-kurso en Ameriko. Li partoprenis la
tutan kurson kaj servis kiel tradukanto. Per
tio kaj per specialaj konsiloj kaj instruoj de
ProL Schjerve, li majstris la Cseh-metodon
kaj tiel fariĝis la unua ximerika Cseh-instru-
ajnto, atestita de la Internacia Cseh-Instituto
de Esperanto.
Pro la akriĝo de la ekonomia krizo li estis
devigata forlasi sian -satatari laboron ĉev la
Centa Oficejo kaj reiri al Milwaukee. Lia
tlevizo ĉiam estas: "Agoj estas pli elokventaj
ol ])aroloj". Dum aliaj nubojn ŝovas kaj
ceremonie fabelas pri nia "kara Lingvo" li pre-
feras pruvi sian anion al Esperanto kaj re-
spekton al D-ro Zamenhof per fruktodona
laboro ĉiutaga. Jjia entuziasmo ne velkas sed
kres'kas, kaj neniu povas antaŭdiri ĉu li ne
baldaŭ komencos vagi denove. Espereble nia
movado en TJsono baldaŭ plue profitos de liaj
klopocloj kaj sindonemo.

National Director: John  II. Fazel       :     1122 W. Eighth Street, Topeka, Kansas.
Miaj karaj geamikoj, junaj kaj maljunaj;
mi revenas de la "pordoj de morto" por saluti
vin. Mi preskaŭ mortis pro la influenzo. Mi
enlitiĝis ĉe la 15a de Decembro, kaj he povis
ellitiĝi ĝis Jan. 7a, 1933. Dec. 16 mi ricevis
de la centra officejo 900 kopiojn de "La Mirin-
da Spegulo" por fordoni al miaj 930 anoj de
la Nacia Esperanto Klubo, en kiu la membreeo
estas senpage, ĝis ill atingos sian 18an jaron.
Sed, mi estas tiel malsana dum la Kristnask-
festtagoj ke mi apena.ii sciis ke ec estas Krist-
nasko. Tial preskaŭ ĉiuj de la libretoj restas
en mi a manoj.
Precipe mi ne povas eĉ nun forsendi ilin car
mi ne havas eĉ unu ])oŝtmarkon jior la pago de
la postelspezoj.    Domaĝe!
Ou vi havas poŝtmarkojn? Certe vi havas,
sed, — VI bezonas la tuton. Mi scias, mi scias,
gekairuloj, nepre vi bezonas. Sed vi ne volas
ke la laboro por niaj gejunuloj pereos, ĉu?
Mi ankaŭ bezonas ĉiun de mia mono; tial, ■—
se vi donos, — nu, mi donos. Se vi ne povas,
aŭ ne volas, — mi ne povas. La laboro ĉesos;
- - pereos. MOKTO! Intertempe la Es-
peranto sankta afero sopiras, malfortiĝas.
HI! BOY SCOUTS
ATTENTION!
If you have any hope or intention of going to
the big Boy Scout Jamboree in Budapest next
summer, — Let me tell you something that I
know; — You still have time, if you start
NOW, to learn Esperanto well enough to talk
44
AMERIKA ESPERANTISTO
to   other   scouts  there,   instead   of   having  to
just look at them and s-m-i-1-e, or grin.
You cannot do that with any national lan-
guage, of course. Even if you know French
as a language, you can't talk it scout fashion,
I'll bet. Few could; if you could, they'll not
all be French by a long shot. You'd need to
talk Hungarian, German, Polish, Ĉekoslovakian
etc. etc. Dont you see? Esperanto covers them
all, and can be learned in less than half the
time, without a teacher. Can you beat that?
Try it once! Lessons by mail for $4.00 a course
if you want to learn it quickly. Hundreds of
scouts all over Europe know Esperanto, while
hundreds more are learning it so if they go
to the big Jamboree they CAY TALK, and
not just give the boys a sickly grin. Catch
on.    Grab a rope !
If any of you can already write in la bela
lingvo, write today to Paul Balkanyi. V.
nagy sanclor-u. 6. Poŝto 507 BUDAPEST,
HUNGARY". He is a scout, and will write
you in Esperanto all about what the Esperanto
Scouts are doing. There is to be a big Es-
peranto-Scout Camp right in the Jamboree.
"BE PREPARED."    Write me.
A slight change in conditions of member-
ship: The rule has been, Free membership
in Y. P. Dept. until "I am 18 years old." This
rule has been extended a bit, to read " - - until
I am 18, or can pay my dues." That simply
means that young folks in high school etc. who
reach 18 years, and are not able to pay their
annual dues of $1.00 for full membership in
E. A. Y. A. are carried "UYTIL they CAY
pay. This is a special concession because of
hard times, just now; and we expect that on
your honor you WILL PAY" just as soon as
you can; even if you are not yet eighteen years
old, as is often the case; for you must know
that this Esperanto movement is not a money
making afero, and we all ought to pay our
dollar just as soon as we possibly can. It
also brings special privileges.
Special Bargain for the Young Folks.

1. "Estus tre bele," respondis la filino
malĝentile, "ke mi iru al la fonto!"—2.
"Mi volas ke vi tien iru," diris la patrino,
"kaj iru tuj !"—3. La filino iris, sed ĉiam
murmurante.—4. si prenis la plej belan
arĝentan vazon, kiu estis en la loĝejo.—
5. Apenaŭ ŝi venis al la fonto, ŝi vidis
unu sinjorinon, tre riĉe vestitan,kiu eliris
el la arbaro kaj petis de ŝi trinki (tio ĉi
estis tiu sama feino, kiu prenis sur sin
la formon  kaj  la vestojn  de  princino,
por vidi, kiel granda estos la malboneco
de tiu ĉi knabino).—6. "Ĉu mi venis tien
ĉi," diris al ŝi la malĝentila kaj fiera
knabino, "por doni al vi trinki? —
7. Certe, mi alportis arĝentan vazon
speciale por tio, por doni trinki al tiu ĉi
sinjorino!—8. Mia opinio estas: prenu
mem akvon, se vi volas trinki".— 9. "Vi
tute ne estas ĝentila", diris la feino sen
kolero.—10. "Bone, car vi estas tiel ser-
vema, mi faras al vi donacon, ke ĉe ĉiu
vorto, kiun vi parolos, eliros el via buŝo
aŭ serpento aŭ rano."

serĉos mian horloĝon, sed mi timas, ke
mi gin jam ne trovos.—9. Kiam mi venis
al li, li dormis; sed mi lin vekis.—10.
Se mi estus sana, mi estus feliĉa.—11. Se
li scius, ke mi estas tie ĉi, li tuj venus al
mi.—12. Se la lernanto scius bone sian
lecionon, la instruanto lin ne punus.—
13. Kial vi ne respondas al mi?—14. ĉu
vi estas surda aŭ muta?—15. Iru for!

Karaj infanoj, estu clam honestaj! —

Ordonu al li, ke li ne babilu.—20. Petu
ŝin, ke ŝi sendu al mi kandelon.—21. Ni
estu gajaj, ni uzu bone la vivon, car la

SHOW CARD
LETTERING
I<sarnŭt
Here is the very course you need if you want to
get a good paying position as a Show Card Letferer
or Sign Letterer, or have a business of your own.
This course is complete and practical and especially
arranged to meet the needs of the student who studies
at home. It was written by E. L. Roller, Principal
of the School of Art of the International Correspon-
dence Schools, member of the American Federation
of Arts, and The National Society of Craftsmen.
Mr. Roller has had twenty years' teaching experi-
ence, and his success in helping other men and women
is an indication of what he can do for you.
H. L. Wood, a clerk, made more than $700 "on
the side" before ha had completed his course and
also won $125 in prizes. Harry William Lord writes
that he has more than doubled his salary as a result
of studying this I. C. S. course in spare time.
William Whitman, a former wagon builder, now has
a sign painting business of his own and is earning
nearly three times as much as he did before enrolling
with the International Correspondence Schools.
There is no doubt that Show Card Lettering and
Sign Lettering offer a real opportunity to ambitious
men and women. Just mark and mail the coupon
and we'll gladly send you a booklet telling all about
the I. C. S. course in Show Card Lettering, or any
other subject in which you        interested.
