Just a Few of the Many Items Now Available ot 1.25 3 owclls By SHERRY BOWEN AP Newsfeatures Writer NEW YORK Can English end the curse of Babel? Some experts not only believe It can but Is well along the road. In the centuries to come, some say, English can become a lan guage like Latin In the Middle Ages In which all educated men can understand each other. Only this may be more important be cause far mure of the people are educated. Nobody knows how many peo ple speak English today. Esli malos vary from H. L. Mencken's 175,000,000 to the l-li World Almanac's 270.000,000. Dr. Albert 11. Marekwardt of the University of Michigan makes a "guess" lhat 230,000,000 people have English as a native language. That com pares with four or five million in 1582. "It is, however,. In lis develop ment as a second language lhat the real opportunities for the fu ture development ot English j seem to lie," Marekwardt says. He suys estimates of the number of people using English as a lan guage vary from 50,000,000 to 125,000,000. But In another cell ! tury, he says, "we can assume that probably 500,000,000 people will be speaking some form of ! English either as a first or a sec j ond language." Of International languages such as Basic English and Esperanto he says. We carl only conclude that no one of them has yet been sufficiently successful to justify much confidence in its future.'' Dr. Aileen T. Kitihln, associate professor of the leaching of Eng lish at Teachers' College, Colum bia University, spells that out. She cites one count which shows that the S50 simple words in Ba sic English have 12,-ti5 meanings when used according to the Bauic English rule. And the Oxford Dictionary gis-es 18.416 senses for those same word. In addition, she says, a living language insist grow from life. Its words and rforms must reflect things and ideas people use. Basss Of Predictions Here are some of the reasons (the experts think English has a chance to spread and possibly to become the inler national lan guage of the future: 1. It is the native language of two of the world's great powers. 2. It is widely used. It Is one of the two working languages in the United Nations. And Dr. Marek wardt estimates, for instance, that three-fifths of the world's ra dio stations broadcast in English. 3. It is widely centered. It is us ed as a native language on at least four of the continents. Rus sian, its nearest big rival, is cen-' Icred on two continent. 4. It is well standardized. The j dialects which prevent many Chi-; nese, for instance, from under-' standing each other are absent, j 5. It is already widely taught as a second language. Marekwardt says It Is replacing French as a second language In Latin Ameri ca. And its teaching is important In Holland, Scandinavia and even In Russia. 6. New methods of teaching make It easier for men to learn another language. This is expect ed to help boost the language which already has the advantage and which is native to people with CHICAGO A big depart ment store planted six Moline elms on State St. in the fall of 1947. It wasn't easy. Six pits, each five feet long, five feet wide and five feet deep, were Dunt in tne sitfewalk. Each one was equipped with a drain, filled with soil on a floor of crushed rock, and covered with a grate. The skinny trees began a struggle for survival against soot, fumes and an unhealthy environ ment. The subway rumbles under neath. Streams of pedestrians pass on one side. Lines of auto'mo biles and buses roll by on the other. There Is also a steady flow of advice from curbstone coaches. "Glad to see you wrapped tnose tree3 in paper to protect them." "Take that paper off. It's smothering them." 'They need more water." "To much water. You want to drown them?" One lady dashed up to the wait ing room, snatched a sheet of free stationery and put down these hot words: "I don't believe It does your store any credit to let these trees stand here and die. If you can't do something, take them out." She was Informed: "We are spending time, effort and money to get these trees established.. We have retained one of the best nurserymen in the Midwest. He examines these trees almost daily and prescribes for them much as a doctor would." To "get these trees established" and they are deemed to be in food shape has cost more than 1,000 per tree to date. The grates were sealed recent ly to keep out salt strewn on the sidewalk la winter. It also stop ped a trickle of coins that rolled down the holes. That ended the store's only chance to get a cash return on it investment.

The pope spoke Saturday night to delegations of Catholic em ployers from France, Canada, Belgium, The Netherlands, Eng land and Italy. The text of his speech, delivered in French, was released by the Vatican Monday. There Is no "irreducible clash of interests" between employers and employes, the pontiff declar ed. He quoted from an encyclical on labor and capital Quadregesi mo Anno issued in 1931 by Pope Pius XI, which recommended "a public statute founded upon the community of responsibility among all those who take part In production." "At present, this part of the encyclical seems almost to furn ish us, unhappily, with an ex ample of an occasion lost because it was not seized in time," Pius commented.
