consider that any of the members of the present Board are serving satisfactorily. They let the Com missioner of Education run things entirely, with the result that the | school system is all messed up worse off than it was 25 years ago in his view
 School Priority Wrong
 Gill took particular exception to the priority list for new school con- struction contained in the Board of Education's report. The area around Anchorage, where 800 pupils have been excluded from schooling is given the lowest ranking of the l2 proposed new schools on that list; and those given priority above it would be established for 90 per cent native pupils, he indignantly said
 The joint session proceedings opened with Rep. Maurice John- sons questioning the absence, from the list of names proposed for con- firmation, of many of the names submitted by the Governor
 From his spot as presiding off cer over the joint session, Senate President Andrew Nerland replied that the Senate already acted upon those nominations that the stat utes do not provide must be con- firmed in joint session-just "by the Legislature" Johnson recogniz- ed the difference in phraseology, v but pointed out that up to the 1946 special session, all nominations had been considered by the bodies jointly.
 Nerland only replied that the Senate already had confirmed the other appointments; that it was up to the House to act as it saw fit upon them. They were taken up by the House, following conclusion of the joint meeting with the Senate.
 House Combinations
 The House confirmed the follow ing appointments unanimously:
 George Vaara, of Anchorage, to the Unemployment Compensation Commission.
 Leslie Nerland, of Fairbanks, to the Alaska Development Board.
 Donald w. Skuse, of Juneau Dr. A. s. Walkowski, of Anchorage; 1; Dr. Howe Vance, of Juneau, and Dr. Sigurd N. Bredlie, of Fairbanks, to the Board of Examiners in Basic Sciences.
 Rev. Paul c. O'Connor, of Hoop CT Bay, and z. J. Loussac, of An chorage, as Commissioners Of the Alaska Housing Authority.
 Objection was made to unanimous consent when the names of pr. c. Earl Albrecht as a member of the Board of Examiners in Basic Sci ences and Matthew P. Mullaney, as Commissioner of Taxation, were named and they were voted on by roll call.
 The vote on the confirmation Of Dr. Albrecht was IA yeas, nays, l absent. On the confirmation of Mullaney the vote was Is yeas, 5 nays, 1 absent.

The BPWC held their regular business luncheon meeting in the Gold Room of the Baranof Friday. The members of the club were en- tertained by a special dance num- Der by Shirley Casperson, Audrey Blair and Dorothy Rolf. A nov ie was shown by Dr. Dale Butler on Educative program which prov ed to be quite interesting to the members.
 June Gabrielson-Mar gave a report on the Chamber of Com merce meeting. Gladys Vuille gave a report on the Alaska Crippled Children's Association meeting.
 Children are to arrive here Mon- day from Anchorage to be trans ported to Sitka Arrangements must be made whereby the chill ddren will be taken care Of while in Juneau. Mrs. Vuille stressed the fact that no infection could be caught from these children while they may have tuberculosis of some origin it is not contag- ious. Any one having room and will take one or more of the chil- dren while they are in Juneau are asked to contact Mrs. Betty Me Cormick, or call 2l8, the Health Department.

 Trustees Not Considered
 Nominations of Henry Roden of 1 Juneau, Charles w. Carter of Ju- neau and John J. Conway of Sitka, ! to the Board of Trustees of the Alaska Pioneers Home, were not i considered at the request of Sen i ator Don Carlos Brownell Chair man of the Committee on Terri ] torial Offices and Institutions of the Senate. Brownell stated that l the combined Territorial Institu- i tions committees of the two cham ] bers are preparing joint recommen- dations based upon observations during the recent biennial inspec- ton visit to Sitka. Those recom- mendations when they are brought in, he said, may result in changing the set up and may affect nomin- ations.
 The votes that refused confirma- tion of Dr. Carr and the Rev Webb were:

 On request that Cochran be re- ppointed-Senate, 12 yeas, 3 nays, che not voting; House, IS yeas. 8 nays, one absent.
 Did Not Vote
 The motion to request reap pointment of MT Ziegler was of- fered by Senator Cochran, while that for re-appointment of Senator Cochran was made by Rep. Maurice Johnson. Senator Cochran was ex- cused from voting on both the con firmation of the Rev. Webb and on the motion for his own reap pointment. However, Senator Gun hard Engebreth's refusal to vote on the motion request re-appoint- ment of Ziegler was challenged by Cochran. Engebreth replied that he had voted for confirmation of Dr. Carr in belief that he was a Re- publican and did not feel that he should switch over to Ziegler. En- gebreths reply was received with some levity, as Dr. Carr is con- sidered Democrat and the Sena- tor had already joined in confir- nation of several other Democrats, staunch Republican that he is.
 Too Short Residence
 Senator Edward D. Coffey was the only Legislator to offer com ment on either nomination that was refused. Remarking on the ap- pointment of the Rev. Webb, he declared: The position of Regent is one of the most honored in the Territory of Alaska It should be given to one who is a long resi- dent of the Territory; certainly not to one of such short residence.

 Questioned privately regarding his vote against confirmation. of Mrs. Peterson's re-appointment to the Board of Education, Speaker Gill later indicated he does not

Address by U. S. Senator c. Wayland Brooks of Illinois,
delivered in the Senate, commemorating the ami
versary of the signing Of Lithuania's Declaration
of Independence.
Dirva = Field. [volume] (Cleveland, Ohio) 1915-current, 1947-02-21

ed It's government, and under lhe
supervision of the Russian army,
an election was held with ballots
containing only one set of names.
The results of these so-called cleo
tions were announced in London a
full "a hours before the polls had
closed in Lithuania. The United
States denounced the Soviet occupa-
ton aid elections as being devious
processes and predatory activities
to deliberately annihilate the inde-
pendence of the Baltic Republics -
Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania.
On June 80, 1910, Mr.. Moloto?
explained the Russian position as
follows:
at would be objectionable if the
Soviet Union did not seize this op-
portunity, which may never recur.
The leaders of the Soviet Union
have decided to incorporate the Bal
tic States into the family of Soviet
Republics"
The United States has never Of
ficially acceded to these Soviet
claims. The State Dept. of the L.
S. has continued to recognize arc
still recognizes the Lithuanian Min
lister to the United States. It's
position in the matter is that I.ith-
! uania should be an independent ma
ton.
Notwithstanding such solemn and
lofty treaties, it is estimated that
at least 100000 of the people OF
Lithuania have been put to death
were deported, imprisoned, or are
today existing as enforced labOrers
under the cruel domination of Rus.
sia.
In June 1941, Germany invaded
Russia.
The Congress of the United Sta
tes, having passed the lend-least
act to provide munitions and sup
plies and other military aid to any
country whose defense is deter
mined by the President to be vita
to the defense of the United States,
the late President dispatched hi:
personal representative, the late Mr.
Harry Hopkins, to meet with Gen
eralissimo Stain in Russia during
July 1941. The Germany army wa.
moving fast and deep into Russian
territory. Russia desperately need
ed assistance. Mr.. Harry Hopkin:
representing the President of the
United States promised, and we
subsequently sent, tremendous guam
titles of military supplies and aic
to help defend Russia, although we
were not officially in the war. Sc
far as anyone can learn, not one
word was uttered at that meeting
about the future liberation of the
little country of Lithuania or the
other Baltic States that had beer
so ruthlessly gobbled up by Russia
a few months before.
In August 1941 the President and
Prime Minister, meeting in great
secrecy at sea, finally announced
the laudatory declaration of prin-
ciples of the Atlantic Charter. Ev-
eryone had a right to expect that
the beneficiaries of the joint effort
of the two great powers would IN
clude the little sovereign state OF
Lithuania, tragic victim of this
war.
due to the length of this address,
the last half will appear next week.
