Speoial BULLET Nov.1947 the Esperanto Association of North America, 114 West 16 Street, New York 11, New York, U.S.A. JULIA ISBRŬCKER WILL ARRIVE IN NEW YORK ON THE EIRST QM DECEMBER Pinal arrangements have been made for the voyage of Julia Isbruoker to America. This is the news we have been awaiting» She will leave Rotterdam the 25th of November, and arrive in , New York by the first of Deoember. She will be in the United States until the 1st of February. Julia Isbruoker ha3 spent months in preparation for this visit. She comes prepared for every manner of Esperanto pro- motion and instruction. She is also interested in talks and meetings on "World Federation". Julia Isbruoker Is undoubt- edly the most outstanding woman Esperantist in ths world today. This visit is an unusual opportunity for eaoh and every one of us. We must make the most of it» Wide-spread arrangements for her, will spell greatly increased interest in Esperanto wherever she appears. Select from the following five suggestions for programss any one of which will be expertly handled by our samideaninoi (1) Intensive Gseh Course in Esperanto, (2) Lecture on the Netherlands, with Esperanto sound films, (3) Talks on World Federation, (4) Lecture on the technique of the Cseh Method of language instruction, (5) Esperanto Cseh demonstrations. Julia. Isbruoker has a splendid command of English, but she prefers to apeak Esperanto wherever possible. It will be best, for the purpose of Esperanto promotion, to arrange for English translation of leotures and talks in Esperanto. Tentative plans call for leotures and oourses in the Greater New York area during the first two or three weeks of December. Localities within easy reaoh of New York may also be served in these first few weeks. Muoh depends upon your letters and arrangements, and upon the importance of meetings and talks which you organize for public information on Esperanto» ■Suggested itinerary after the New York areas New England, Boston area, etc.} up-state New York, Cleveland, Detroit, middle West area; Washington, D.C., southern Atlantic coast; and, if sufficient travel funds are found, California and points on Pacifio coast. Please send your letters, explaining possibilities and plans, even if you wish dates other than time3 and places whioh are mentioned here» It is imperative that we act at onoe, Financial arrangements» Julia Isbruoker does not seek payment, but due to financial restric- tions for Netherlanders she oannot bring money with her. The chief requiisnent is the assurance of modest lodging and meals; possibly in someone's home. In addition, it is suggested-that eaoh club or looallty pay #10 to her aooount at the Central Office to help with travel expenses be- tween oities. Where the distanoe is great, perhaps some samideano will add to that amount. Any and all aid to Julia Isbruoker will mean substantial gains .for Esperanto. Payments for oourses or leotures, by students or audience would provide necessary travel funds.. Perhaps many plaoes can ask a small fee for whatevsr programs are arranged. Thomas A. Goldman, Vioe-Consul of U.S. in Rotterdam, writes us in Esperanto as follows» "Ml antaŭ du tagoj havi-s okazon vidi ,1a filmoĵn kiujn kunportos S-ino Isbruoker, kaj mi povas oertigi ke ill estas bonegaj. La Esperahto-teksto estas bona, kaj klare elparolita,kaj gl estas facile komprenebla ed je lernanto. Krom tio, la filmoj estas facile kompreneblaj je ne-Esperant- isto. Hi estas ofioialaj Nederlandaj filmoj pri rekonsiaruado 81 tie, kaj la bildoj mem parolas. Mi esperas ke plej grahda reklamo estos farata por ke la ĝenerala publiko havu la okazon vidi tiujn historiajn dokumentojn. Unu el la filmoj rain specials interesigas, car mi estis vidinta ĝin &n kinejp kun Nederlandrlingva tekato. La traduko, kiunJfaris S-ino Isbruoker mem, tre precise sekvis la originalan. S-ino Isbruoker estas rimarkinda virino."
