YEAR'S EVE VICTORYCAUSED Italian, French, Russian, German Popular Japa nese "Dead Language.'1 London (U.R) Language schools reported the number of persons studying foreign langu ages today to be three to four times that pre-war, civilians and soldiers alike optimistically pre paring for what's to come after Adolf Hitler. Learning Italian, German, Russian, French even Chinese were businessmen, British and American troops, and civi lian opportunists along with the usual batches of diplomats. "And every man," a language instructor told the United Press, "wants to learn in a hurry." Looking over foreign langu age London, there was this pic ture: German The trade folded up when Poland was invaded, but the business now is picking up, "and a rush is expected." Italian Booming, w. J. Gil bert, British Isles director of the Berlitz schools, said ' "the study of Italian was as dead as a dodo after Italy stabbed France, but the Increase since the invasion of Sicily has been extraordinary." French The business has been '-'enormous" has been since the Allied occupation of North Africa. Russian Busy . and Increas ing. The demand for transla tion Into Russian of technical manufacturing terms has been more than language schools could handle. Japanese Virtually a dead language. One trouble has been in finding a Japanese Instructor. Another, that nobody appar ently, wants to learn it Men, and women, with eyes on the shrinking Axis map were demanding to leam in a hurry, and, to meet the requirements, language teachers were attempt ing to -devise basic-German, basic-Italian, trying to pattern something like the 850-word basic-English. Observers said the efforts were meeting with varying , success, but "basic" courses were not being taught in tne Dig schools. It still was taking months to develop a language student be yond the gibbering stage. The director of one school said he wouldn't regard a man as able to speak a foreign tongue in anything less than three to four years study. - Some countries. Holland anil Turkey among them, were con ducting uietr own schools. in tne American army, classes were running in French and Russian. Instruction on a lesser scale was being given trooDs in Spanish, Italian, German, Czech, Slovenian and Hungarian. wim tne Americans, the ac cent was "on the fundamentals." Soldiers, mostly officers, were taking the courses voluntarily in their own spare time. "We put the emphasis on simple conversation," an army Instructor said. "We first teach a man enough to ask for water, and where he can eat after ward, he can go on from there." PITCHES IN - Norwood, Mass. (U.R) Even the blind can put their shoulder to the wheels of war.
