Sendube la plej grandaj-momentoj en la vivo de Es- perantistoj estas la partopreno Se la naciaj kaj internaciaj kongresoj. Internaciajn mi cNsestis du, naciajn multajn en Usono kaj diversaj landoj de Europo. Estas vere kor- tusaj momentoj kiam homoj el 30-50 landoj konstatas ke ili povas tute facile babili inter si per la mirinda lingvo Esperanto, ne ĝenate per la malbeno de la multlingveco. Sed ne malpli gravaj estas la naciaj kongresoj, kie la gvidantoj de la naciaj asocioj povas diskuti gravajn aferojn pri propagando kaj enkonduko de Esperanto en la lernejojn kaj en la ceteran vivon. La novaj samideanoj partoprenas Ge la diskutoj kaj ili povas amike interkonatiĝi kun la gvidantoj kaj inter si, tJi-jare la usonaj kaj kanadaj sami- deanoj kunvenos en plej oportuna urbo, en Detroit, Mich, dum Julio 1-3, en la 29-a kon- greso de E.A.N.A. La usonaj samideanoj suldas al la samideanoj de Detroit sincerajn dankojn pro la afabla invito kaj pro la entuziasma preparado de la kongreso, ideano atente tralegu la antau unu monato forsenditan presitan invitilon. Ili konstatos kiel serioze oni laboras en Detroit por certigi grandan sukceson al la 29-a kongreso.' Post la oficialaj kunsidoj, eble la plej grava punkto en la programo de la kongreso estos la tuttaga vizito al la Ford-fabrikejoj kaj al la Greenfield Vilago. Mi ĉlon per- sone vizitis kaj mi "sat us viziti ĉlon denove kaj denove. Nepre "clu samideano kiu bezonas nur unu-tagan vojaĝon por iri al Detroit, devus ceesti. Multaj venos de malproksime. La hotelprezoj estas tre moderaj kaj la c^ambroj bonegaj. tĉiuj povas esti certaj pri plej bonkora kaj entuziasma akcepto. Mi mem veturos de Los Angeles al Detroit. Kiom da sami- deanoj - kaj samideaninoj ni tie renkontos? Jam nun via kongresa kotizo ($3.-) estas bonvena. «_„____ Antau du monatoj mortis s-ro Robert Kreuz, Direktoro de UEA. Post nur du-taga malsano lia morto venis subite, kiel uragana bato por la Esperanto-movado. Lia morto ege sur- prizis la Esperantistaron. La tuta Esperanto-movado haltigis sian spiradon kun la gran- daj demandoj sur la llpoj: "Kio nun okazos kun UEA??" kaj "KIU daŭrigos lian laboron??" car mia amiko Kreuz estis viro tiom kapabla, energia, talenta, sincera, klarvida,li fari'gis plej grava kolono por la Esperanto-kongresoj kaj por la movado 'g'enerale. Li plenumis gigantan taskon; li faris ion kion neniu alia samideano kredis ebla; li metis nian universalan asocion UEA sur sanan financan bazon - - li bilancigis la buĝeton de UEAl Depost 1908 li fondis klubojn, aranĝis kongresojn kaj ekspoziociojn; li estis re- daktoro, fenerala sekretario, direktoro, oratoro, unuaklasa plurlingva interpretisto; li estis la plej rapida Esperanto-stenografo; verkisto, konsilanto de miloj da gvidantoj kaj amikoj. Dum sia vivo li estis tiel grava por la Esperanto-movado kiel la litero "a" en la Esperanto-lingvo. Li estis por mi unu el la du plej bonaj amikoj en Esperantujo. Li aranfis mian mondvojafbn tra 43 landoj; mi siildis la grandan sukceson de mia mondvoj- aqfo al lia eksterordinara organize talento. Mia koro doloregls 6e la unua informo pri lia morto. La nomo de Kreuz vivos en la buŝo de samideanoj tiom longe kiom Esperanto vivas. Li laboris por mondopaco; do li meritas nun la eternan paeon. fĵiu fervora samideano deziras korespondi kun la cetera mondo. Unu el la plej interes- aj samideanoj en Esperantujo, s-ro R.F. Vaughan, vivas- en la tropika insulo Borneo. Li estis delegito de UEA en Celebes, Tokio, Osaka kaj nun en Borneo. Li verkis per simpla, bela stilo, plej interesajn artikolojn por Heroldo dum multaj jaroj. Car tro multaj sam- ideanoj deziris korespondi kun li, li devis presigi siajn "leterojn" en la formo de tre allogaj "kajeroj". Li rakontas personajn travivajbjn kun tigroj, krokodiloj, indigeioj, plantejoj, elefantoj, ktp. Kontrau sendo de nur 3 internaciaj respondkuponoj (ac'eteblaj ce via polrtof icejo) li sendos al vi tian kajeron kun ri'ca kaj interesa enhavo. Mendu pere de la Centra Oficejo en Washington.

Some inquiries have been received from local clubs and chapters on the possibility of increasing their sense of participation in the North American association by paying from the chapter's treasury for some form of "group membership» which would cover the entire membership of the local organization, (outside of those who individually have made themselves regular members of E.A.N.A., on the terms laid down in Article III;) This if approved by the annual congress, can be arranged through an amendment to the constitution. In order, therefore, that an amendment to that effect may legally be discussed and voted upon at the Detroit congress next July, (with required advance notice duly given,) the President, Secretary, and Chairman of Executive Committee (though acting as individual members and not in official capacity) now propose for such consideration a new section to be added to Article III., and to read as follows: "ARTICLE III., Section 5. Any chapter which fulfills the provisions of Section 4 above (including the selecting of its officers from paid dp regular members of E.A.N.A.) may, if it so desire, pay into the treasury of E.A.N.A. the sum of 50V^ per annum for each member of the chapter who is not himself a regular member of E.A.N.A. , -- by this payment giving to all members of the chapter who are not "regular members" of E.A.N.A. the status of "group members" E.A.N,A. Group members shall have the privileges of the floor at the annual congress, but not the individual right to vote; but the chapter as such may count its group members, as well as its regular members of E.A.N,A. for the purpose of casting additional proxy votes as provided in Article VII., Section 4. " (NOTE; -- Section 4 of Article VII. is the one which gives every chapter as an or- ganization the right to cast one proxy-vote for each full ten in its membership, in addition to the votes belonging to all regular E.A.N.A. members in their individual right,) All whose membership is dated prior to November '35 have the revised Constitution- November edition of "A E". A few copies left-10a'. X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X*X^ REPORT OF THE FINANCE COMMITTEE (April 15, 1936) With the 29th Congress only two months away we enter the home stretch of the drive for debt reduction. Reluctantly we must admit that our earlier hope of a one hundred percent response has faded out completely. Exactly fifty-one percent of our members have so far replied. The few recent letters have been mostly in fulfillment of earlier pledges. But if the response has not been as general as we had hoped for, it has indeed been generous. With four hundred and sixty five dollars already in hand there is definite assurance of further progress. One member who early in the drive gave twenty dollars promised an additional twenty if we reached five hundred dollars. And it is safe now to say that pledges still outstanding are sufficient to bring us up to this mark, But this is not all; even as we were doing our utmost to boost the total to a point where we could take advantage of this generous offer, another member came forward with a promise that he would add ten percent to our drive total. So it is not unlikely that as we gather in Detroit we shall find that we have raised close to six hundred dollars. But in making this prediction it is only fair to remind ourselves of the forty-nine percent from whom nothing has yet been hea,rd. Should any considerable number of these be moved by a spirit of mischievous generosity, it would be in their power to play havoc with our calculations. While the likelihood of such roguery seems remote, we are assuming an attitude of watchful (and wishful'.) waiting. And now we have two more states, VIRGINIA and ARKAN3AS, to add to our Honor Roll. The former had earned a one hundred percent rating at the time of our last report but was omitted through an error.
