Different Tongues Talk Universal
Language at international Congress

WASHINGTON, Aug. I5.-The IN
ternational Esperanto congress open
ed this morning with delegates from
80 different countries, representing
every continent on the globe and near
ly as many tongues. Sunday religious
services In Esperanto were held In
two OF the most prominent Washing
ton churches; the Roman Catholic
service by Father Colas. OF France,
and Father Bianchini, OF Italy; and
the Protestant service by Rev. Paul
Hoffman, OF Baltimore, and Rev. Jas.
l.. Smiley, OF Annapolis.
John Barrett, director Of the Inter
national Bureau Of American Repub-
lies was elected today as president
Of the Sixth International Congress
Of the Worlds associations Of Esper-
antoists.

Necessarily all the proceedings OF
the congress are in the new world
tongue, for there Is no other language
that any large portion of the delegates
can understand. The Japanese, who
doesn't know a word of German, talks
with the delegate from Berlin, who
can't speak Japanese; the American
and the Russian get along finely,
though neither would know what the
other was talking about II they con-
versed In their natice tongues.
On Aug. 16 "As You Like It" will be
played for the benefit of the visiting
Esperantists, Shakespeare's play hav-
ing been translated into the world
language by DR.. Ivy Kellerman espe-
cially for this occasion,
Two days later the delegates will be
entertained with real baseball game
at the American league park. The
rules Of the game will be printed In
Esperanto and when the umpire cries
"Tn Frapumol" every Esperantist
will understand that the batter whiffed
