ORGANISATION
International
A Central Commitee consisting of a President, a General Secretary, a Treasurer and the Magazine Editor, is responsible for the international operations of the League. This Committe makes regular contacts with the World Organasation of the Scout Movement (WOMS) and World Association of the Guides and Girl Scouts (WAGGS). It seeks to appoint national representatives in as many countries as possible.
National
National
representatives organise and run national sections of the League, enrolling
individual members, selling subscriptions to "LA SKOLTA MONDO"
and helping establish contacts between Scouts and Guides by means of Esperanto.
Most of the national sections issue national bulletins, which contain
news and views about Esperanto, Scouting and Guiding.
THE LANGUAGE
Esperanto is about five times as easy as any of the national languages usually learnt at schools worldwide. It is, therefore, the ideal language for the busy Scout, Guide or Leader who has not time to learn one national language after the other but needs one language, quickly and easily learnt for contacts with all countries. There are already enough speakers of the language to make the learning of it well worthwhile. For those interested, it has an abundant literature.
