Address by Julius Smetona

turn of their independence.
And this not only because ev-
cry nation has a God given
right to independence, but al
so because without indepen-
dence of all nations a stable
world organization is unthink-
able.
In light of all this the reso-
luton in behalf of Lithuanian
independence, recently intro
duced in the House and Sem
ate, can be considered as an
indication of the desire Of the
American people to put Pax
Americana into effect and thus
to bar the use of force and
violence in international rela-
tions. To Lithuanians the con-
sideration Of this resolution
by the Congress of the United
States gives the greatest spir-
itual lift they have received
since their country was over
run. For unless Pax Ameri-
cana is put into effect, neither
Lithuania nor her sister re-
publics of Latvia and Estonia
can rise from the grave of
slavery to a new life of free
dom. Animated by this re-
newed spirit, the Lithuanian
people are awaiting with the
deepest concern the passage of
this resolution by the Ameri-
can Congress - an act which
would bring closer to Lithuania
and all enslaved nations the
day of independence.

Ready for Action?
WRITE NOW!

Many requests are now be-
ing made to the Senate and
the House of Representatives
by Americans aiding those
countries seeking independence.
American Lithuanians a S o
have the best opportunities now
to help secure Lithuanian in
dependence, for righteousness
and justice, are what our gov
ernment and every true Ameri-
can profess. Therefore, now
is the time to request support
and aid of those in positions
to act Immediately, in secur-
ing a just peace. Now is the
time to write and remind them
that Lithuania, is among those
countries who have fought to
rid of tyranny and are now
awaiting independence.
A postcard or letter reading
as follows would be achieving
our aim and proper.

Ask u. S. Officials to
Intervene for
Baltic Refugees
The Cleveland Plain Dealer)

(.The Cleveland Plain Dealer)
Protests against Russia's re-
ported demand that Sweden
hand over 156 Baltic refugees
were issued here yesterday by
leaders Of three American-Lith-
uanian societies.
P. J. Zuris, president of the
American Friends of Lithuania,
said kilograms had been sent
to President Truman, Secre-
tary of State James F. Byrnes
and to Senator Tom Conally
(D.-Tex), chairman of the Sem
ate foreign relations commit
tee, and also to the American
ministry in Sweden, asking
that they intervene.
Sweden is given these war
refugees up to Russia" said
Zuris, because it fears Rus
sian pressure.
"These refugees are leaders
of the Baltic states. They es-
capped during the Russian oc-
cupation, fleeing to Sweden by
ship. many of them perishing
in the Baltic Sea.
Return to Russia would
mean Imprisonment in Siberia
or death. These are the for
mer government heads, busi-
ness men and teachers of the
Baltic states, and Russia would
liquidate them because Russia
does not want them to strive
to restore their countries to
Independence"
In addition to Zuris, signers
of the protest messages were
K. s. Karpius, secretary Of the
League for the Liberation of
Lithuania, and DR.. A. Oils of
Chicago, president of Americans
of Lithuanian Descent.
The kilograms stated that in

(The following Address was
given at the American-Lith-
uanian Mission Dinner Nov.
10th, in Washington, I'd. CO.
Mr.. Chairman, distinguished
Members of Congress, Ladies
and Gentlemen.
1t seems that in spite of no.
BILE efforts to achieve unani-
nifty Of views regarding the
new world organization, today
the world is confronted with
two kinds of peace: one based
on justice and one based on
force. The first can be called
Pax Americana, the second -
Pax Sovieto-Russa. AS the
principle of justice is irrecon-
cilable with the principle of
force, So Pax Americana cam
not be reconciled with Pax So
vieto-Russa. Therefore any at
tempt to find compromise
between these two systems is
equivalent to abandonment of
justice in favor of force -
for such a conception like half
justice and half force does not
really exist at all. And it is
not hard to foresee, especially
in an atomic age, what we can
expect of a world organization
based on such an arrangement.
Therefore if today the en-
slaved nations are invoking
justice, the issue involved is
not only their independence,
but also the future of the en-
tire world. In this light it is
easier to understand what Pre-
sident Wilson meant when af-
ter rejection by Congress of
the League of Nations he said /:
eve had a chance to gain the
leadership of the world. We
have lost it, and soon we shall
be witnessing the tragedy of
it alp. Well, Pax Americana
was not established after the
first World war. Without ac-
tive American leadership peace
failed.
Because today we are wit
Messing much greater chaos
than after the first world war
an absolute American world
leadership is a necessity. This
leadership would today be ac-
cepted with enthusiasm by a
tremendous majority of hui
manity, defeated Germany and
Japan included. AS democracy
is a free manifestation of the
will Of q majority, the Ameri-
can leadership of the world
would he a genuine democratic
phenomenon. To the small ma
tions which in Europe alone
number some $50 millions of
people Pax Americana would
mean a deliverance from bon
dage. Small nations can only
survive in a just and democra-
tic society.
President F. D. Roosevelt
said on March Is, 1941: "Hu-
manity will never permanently
accept a system imposed by
conquest anr based on slave
ry". Today, as if in confir-
nation of this truth, Soviet
enslaved nations refuse to be-
lieve that the present set up
is a permanent one. They still
