Unfortunately, this ‘news agency’ hasnot been operating for some time due to the lack of someone whocan take it on. Would you be interested?Essentially, it should inform pertinent media contacts, politicians,etc. of key news and events just a few times a year – as andwhen the occasion arises – so the task is not onerous.The chief task is to select and compile brief news items in aformat that might attain immediate publication. One should notexpect to be published often. Such a service shows the mediaEsperanto is alive and well, which may prompt publication ofother material or the interest of an individual journalist lookingfor a story. Part of the job is also to maintain the list of relevantaddresses. Help and advice will be on hand.If you are interested, please contact the EAB office (details onpage 2).

I then realized thatit was likely that we had oneactive Esperantist for every100,000 of the population of theUK. I am not blind to the factthat we have a number of dedicatedhard-working people (I amin touch with a number of them)who will keep the movementalive come hell or high water;people who are conscious of thevalue of Esperanto as an internationalmeans of communicationand who are mindful of our greatliterary heritage, and indeedcontribute to it. Nor do I forgetthat Esperanto flourishes in someparts of the country: The LondonClub, the North West Federation,the Scottish movement and otherorganisations come to mind. Butthese places are like jewels in alargely barren landscape.May I illustrate my frustrationby citing the case of the NorthStaffs. Esperanto Club. HoraceBarks founded this in the fiftiesand struggled manfully to holdmonthly meetings with half-adozenpeople. On his death Ireplaced him in the early eighties,wrote letters to local newspapers,always ending with the words‘You may obtain a copy of lessonone of a free correspondencecourse by ringing 01538 304240’.We gradually built a club whichhad a membership of fifteen; allexcept two or three old stagershad completed the correspondencecourse. We were strongenough by the end of the eightiesto organize the British Congress(very successful; the last Congresswhich attracted 200 partipants).Thereafter the club declined:members lost interest, some leftthe district and some died. I toofound the weekly 40-mile roundtrip to the Potteries exacting; theclub perished, and we were ableto help other individuals andorganizations with the £1,000balance we finished with (‘profit’from organizing the congress).I have always believed theCorrespondence Course to be aboon. I used to belong to the veryactive ‘Press Panel’ and wroteletters, at the instigation of theorganizer, to many parts of thecountry (again always invitingpeople to ask for a copy of lessonone). Thus I received hundreds ofrequests. Some might say that theeffort was wasteful, but I alwayslooked upon ‘Lesson One’ as anadvertisement of our existenceand never expected a hugeĜisdate • 13
