Lady Baden-Powell, World Chief Guide of the Girl Scouts, repeats the approval of Esperanto which both she and Lord Baden-Powell have expressed throughout the years of their leadership in the Scout movement, In a lewer to Dr. Lydia Allen DeVilbiss of Miami, Florida, Lady Baden-2owell writes about Esperanto as follows: Dear Dr. DeVilbiss, I much appreciate your thought in sending me news of your society for “Esperanto.” T have of course come across it VERY often, and it would be a grand thing if Mrs. Roosevelt can persuacle U.N. to introduce it all over the world, and get it taken up com. pletely in all schools and communities. If and when THAT comes about, it should indeed be of the utmost benefit to the world for the greater under- standing between peoples, who are — as you say — so di vided by languages. OLAVE BADEN-PoweLt, World Chief Guide Lady Baden-Powell, in her approval of Esperanto, lends encouragement to the only solution which can fully realize the world-wide objectives of the Girl Scouts for common action, as expressed in their slogan for the year 1946: “Citizenship in Action — Around the World.”THE SCOUTS NEED ESPERANTO "Scouts of the World — Brothers Together” is the splendid slogan which ‘was launched on the occasion of the thirey-fifth anniversary of the Scoue movement. In the course of four dec- ades the Scoot movement has become a world movement, recognized around the gldbe as an effective means of building youthful characeer. Today the American Scout has brother Scouts in 73 hnds which have adopted the Scout progeam for their youth — brocher Stouts who speak many dif- ferent languages and live in accord- ance with the varied customs of their ‘own regions, but who hold in com- mon the ideals of Scouting. Millions of Scouts ate brothers in one world: ‘wide family, bue when it comes, to talking to one another and under- standing one another they are often like a family of deaf-muces, They need 1 common tongue as a world- wide link of brotherhood: the inter- language Esperanto, Lord Robert Baden-Powell empha- ifcance and the tremen is of the incerlanguage for the rapidly-expanding Scout move- mene, of which he was che founder, by urging Scouts co learn Esperanto, Ii his famons handbook, Scouting for Boys, on page 234 (edition of 1910), hhe’ suggested “Instruction classes in Experatto, bookskeeping, mechanics ~” placing Esperanto at the very iegnnitg of the ise Te founder, of the Scour movement always did things ina practical way, so he sec- ‘ommended, on page 239, among the “Books «0 Read.” "Esperanto for the Millions. Lord Baden-Powell’s advice has or remained unheeded. Esperanto classes ave been organized by Scout tr00ps in may lands. A large number of Secaits have gained the Inserpreter's Badge by their swdy of Esperanto When in 1933 the World Jarboree of the Boy Scours was held at Go- dollo, nese Budapest, Hungary, Es- pperanco. interpreters were posted at the bank, ticket office, pose office, and other places; and "Esperantist {uides ‘were available. Among. some ontingonts, for instance those from France, Cuechoslovakia, Norway, Spain,” Poreugal, Japan,” and Trini. dad, the proportion of Esperanto- Speaking members was 10 percent or more. On various occasions large fgroups of scouss gathered around Eimpeties for Fsperanro community Sing:songs. ‘Tne next World Jamboree of Scouting, to be held in France dur- ing August, 1947, with an expected attendance of 35.000 Scouts, provides fn occasion for stimulating’ increased interest among Scouts in the useful hess of Esperanco a5 a means of hur- dling language barriers. French Espe- ruintists have already gone into action with publication of a. textbook for French Scouts. They have received assurances from the Jamboree Organ- taation on three points: 1) Esperanto will be one of che languages of the Jamboree; 2) all announcements 0 be sent to foreign countries wil be translated aso into Esperanto; 3) a special dace, che first Wednesday after the opening of che Jamboree, will be reserved for a getogether of all Experancospeaking Scouts, "The lucky Scouts who attend the World Jamboree will find a eremen- dows thrill in communicating with Seours of many different nationali- ties on a plane of language equality through the use of Esperanto, The Interchange of ides: is bound 0 be ore congenial when neither partic pune is ina postion of language Inferioricy. painélly striving (0 use 1 foreign idiom which the other speaks with fluency and ease because itis his native tongue.

In the past winter two Esperanto classes were taught at Mon: tevideo for members of the “Asocia Sion de Profesores” (Association of Professors and Teachers), one. class for members of the Teachers’ Union, These tree classes were conducted by Prof. Fernandez Menendez. There was also a class at the Institute of Stenography (Instituto de Estudios sguigraticos) New shortwave broadcasts in Es. peranto were seared recently fzom Bera, Switzerland (every Sunday, 1.10 PM.

EST, auspices Swedish Esperanto Instituce): Our previous information about broadcasts from Prague, Czecho- slovakia, should be corrected to the effece that Esperanto news bulletins are broadcast every day, including Sundays. The weekly broadcasts from ‘Warsaw, Poland, and Belo Horizonee, Brazil, continue. The number of long. wave ‘stations broadcasting in Espe: ramto is constantly inceeasing. Latest additions ate Rio de Janeiro PRA > (auspices Brazilian Ministry of Educ gation and Health), and Hilversum, Netherlands (auspices Workers’ Espe. ranto Federation) * The Austrian seachers journal, “De mokratische Pacdagogik” ( Democratic Education), now ‘contains a regular Esperanto section edited by Dy.

Dr. de Boer, who is Professor of Ro ‘mance Languages, declared: “There are now some dispates about the new spelling (of the Dutch language) and about Esperanto. Aa amazing number of ignorant opinions ave expressed on both these questions. They are, how. fever, not as simple as they appear some people. For both of them, some understanding of che essence of language is not superfluous ale though linguists should noe necessarily hhave the last word in such mawers, In view of a recent publication, T wish «© point out simply that the language of pacticular nation cannot ever have a chunce of being generally accepted as a world lane nage, regardless of how many mil. lions ‘speak the languge and. how far it is spread over the globe.
