Esperantists Still Try
To Save World With
Their Language
Library to Get Stack
Of Books as Opening
Event in Their Week

Esperanto, the language invented
to save the world, isn't discouraged
yet.
Backed by a jealous band of Fed
eral employees and high school stu
dents, the international lingo IS
booming in Washington probably as
never before. Today at pm. mem
bers of the local Esperanto Club will
troop down to the Central Public
Library to present the city a stack
of books printed in Esperanto, as
the first event here in International
Esperanto Week.
Heading the delegation will be
Thomas A. Goldman of 1902 Summit
place NV. He is a young Harvard
graduate who was elected president
last october. in recognition of what
was considered by some to be an
educational miracle.
His Miracle.
He had induced large numbers of
pupils at Central and Western High
Schools to stay in classroons after
school hours and do additional
studying.
Boys and girls dug into Esperanto
with the golden prospect before
them of being able to speak and
read the invented language as well
after 80 one-hour lessons as French
after three years of instruction.
At 7:30 pm. Friday the Esperanto
Clubs of the schools will show their
proficiency in playlet presented for
the public at Thomson School,
Twelfth and L streets NV. Lee
lures and speeches will also be given.
Mr.. Goldman traces all this activ-
ity back to Ludwig Zamenhof, an
oculist born in 1859 in a section of
Russian Poland where Lithuanian,
German, Polish, Russian and He
brew were spoken by constantly
pickering groups. DR.. Zamenhof
published his auxiliary" language,
created on theory of pref1xes and
sufflxes, in 1887, with the idea it
would solve national minority prob
lens and lead to universal peace.

Problems of Small
DaiIies Discussed
As Publishers Meet
500 Gother for Annuo!
Session of Association;
4. P. Directors Named
n ths Associated Press.

- tbs Associated Press.
NEW YORK, April 22.-ProblemS
of small daily newspapers with
circulations under $4,000 were under
discussion today at the opening ses-
sion of the American Newspaper
Publishers Associations annual
convention.
Most of the 500 owners, editors
and publishers here for the three
day conclave attended the initial
meeting and heard its chairman,
Frank S. Hoy of the Lewiston (Me1
Sun and Journal outline two major
questions for consideration.
These were increasing production
costs which he said were cutting
down the number of newspapers,
and frequent attacks on the press
by some of those in high govern
mental positions"
High costs, taxation and re-
strictive laws are putting daily
newspapers out of business" he said.
1.-The smaller newspapers such 'as
we represent here today find 1t most
difficult to keep up with the in
creasing cost of newspaper pub
hsning.
Mediums Steadily Reduced.
"As a result we have fewer news
papers and the number of mediums
of information ano discussion so
vital to the maintenance of our kind
of freedom is being steadily re-
duced'
Defending the press, he pointed
out that although some American
newspapers were "gaudy and SEN
sational" and others "wild-eyed,
heli-raising liberals" the daily jour-
mails could not be fitted into a COM
mon mold"
He said newspapers in America
were as different as the people who
made them and as different as the
communities they served.
THAT is freedom of the press at
work in America" he declared, land
may the great melting pot never at
te ot to pour us all into a common
mUld."
The publishers convention fol-
lowed the annual meeting of the
Associated Press which yesterday
elected six directors to three-year
terms and approved an amendment
to the bylaws respecting hours of
publication of A. P. dispatches.
Directors Named.
Directors elected were Robert Nc
Lean, Philadelphia Bulletin; Frank
3. Noyes, Washington Star; Paul
Patterson, Baltimore Sun; E. H.
Butler, Buffalo News; Josh L. Horne,
Rocky Mount IN. c. Telegram. and
George F. Booth, Worcester CMasS)
Telegram.
For Mr.. Booth it was a new post;
the first five were reelected.
The acknowledgements amend
ment says that morning papers may
receive A. P. news not later than
9 am. STANDARD time at place Of
publications. and publish not earlier
than pm. except that for editions
TO be circulated only outside the city
of publication not earlier than the
following morning, morning papers
may publish not earlier than pm.
Afternoon papers. the amendment
added, may receive news not later
than Z pm. and publish not earlier
than am. The amendment further
provides that the A. P. Board of
Directors may authorize on eX-
traordinary occasions use of A. P.
dispatches in extra editions or for
bulletins outside the hours named.

Murphy's Plan on Collec-
 tion of Old Age Taxes Not Meant for Here

Statements by Mayor. John Mur- play of New Haven at 8 legislative nearing in Hartford yesterday afternon that methods of collecting old age assistance taxes in Q near by large city were being studied by New Haven offlcials with the view of improving their own local sys- tenn evidently did not refer to Wa terbury, as an inquiry at Tax Col lector Humbert E. Manginrs ofnce this morning revealed that he had neither correspondence or conver- sation with New Haven officials rel- ative to the same.
 Mayor Murphy's remarks came during his espousal of a bond issue which would be used to defray cost of Q State Trade School. New Ha- ven is seeking $750,000 for such pur- poses. The mayor pointed out that the city's record for collection of old age assistance taxes this year was not 6 good one and cited req sons for 1t, ct the same time adding that ofilcials were studying the methods used in Q nearby city where an excellent tax return had been made.
 Listeners believed that he was re- ferring to Waterbury where Tax Collector Humbert E. Mangini has just announced that approximately e5 per cent of the collectible old age taxes have been paid at his office to date. Today's total tax figure was slightly more than $l42000, which Is considerable more than the city has been charged this year by the state. The states bill for such taxes is $i3i,8ls, so Waterbury will have more than a $i0,000 surplus at the end of the year in this one depart mental item alone.
 Up to noon today MT. Mangini had not been contacted by New Ha- ven officials relative to local meth ods, but was prepared to discuss the same with them If consulted, SO he informed The Democrat.

DANIEL TAYLOR
 IN MINOR CRASH

Two accidents were reported, and one motorist arrested, early this morning, after trafflc tie-ups on hilly grades. Traveling conditions were hazardous, but later in the morning, the sun melted the ice and afforded better traction for autonlo- bile tires. Minor accidents occurred on ice-coated streets, but damages were slight.
 Daniel G. Taylor was notified to appear in court by Motorman John Mcdonnell when his automobile skidded on West Main and State street at 7:20 o'clock. Taylor's car skidded and struck the left side of an automobile driven by Michael Famiglietti of 61 Courtland avenue, owned by Helen Famiglietti of the same address.
 Taylor will be arraigned before Judge T. E. Conway for failure to grant the right of way.

Longer Working Week
 { Among Many Results ] Expected In State
No Special instructions Received Here Concerning
 Contemplated Changes; Local Projects Not x Directly Linked With Vital Defense Plans

With some projects to be in con- tinuous operation 72 hours a week, or even more, and with project en- ployes in other localities working 4B.hour weeks, the Connecticut WPA plans to step up the tempo of its national defense construction program immediately, according to Acting Administrator Frank Up- man, Jr.
 William E. Kennedy, regional en. gineer for the WPA staff, stated to- day that as yet he had received no instructions for extending the work ing schedule in Waterbury. No mem ton of this city was made in the of- fcial statement released by the New Haven office today. It is possible that men or work may be trans- ferred if the, staet officials find 1t necessary.
 Of Connecticut's current enroll- ment of 12,492 WPA workers, some are now engaged on defense proj- 4,26l, or approximately 35 per cent, ects, MT. Upman said, and that per- dntage will be greatly increased under the speedup plans and with the advent of warm weather.
 In the larger cities, Hartford, New Haven and Bridgeport, many WPA workers will be moved from non- defense projects to the defense projects, which will operate on a two-shift basis, from dawn to dark. Tn some instances, under special instructions from WPA headquarters at Washington, the work wkeek for project employees is to be extended 48 hours. This Is made necessary because there is no surplus of men ' on the relief rolls in these areas.
 Six new defense projects have been approved since January 1, call- ing for total federal expenditures of $i,071, 907. These include addi-
