6.1640, Qs: Address, French 'de'?, Navajo in WWII

[The Linguist List]

I quote verbatim an entire news item from the British _Independent_
newspaper, 17 November 1995
 
'SLOVAKIA BANS USE OF OTHER LANGUAGES Bratislava- Parliament has
passed a strict language law curbing the use of any language other
than Slovak and providing [sic] large fines for anyone contravening
it. The move heightened tensions with the country's sizeable Hungarian
minority. The CTK Czech news agency said the the measure would take
effect some time next year.'
 
I haven't been following the "Linguistic Human Rights" thread so I
don't know if this situation has already been discussed. I don't think
there's much to discuss however other than: can anybody suggest an
address to which we can address letters expressing our opinions of
this policy?

Greetings,
 
One of my students is researching the US government's use of Navajo as
a form of espionage communication during World War II.  Part of her
project focuses on the ideological implications of this issue.  She is
having trouble locating sources.  Would anyone have suggestions that I
could pass on to her?
 
Many thanks,
