+ EBRUARl 16, 1947, is the 29th
anniversary of the signing of the
Declaration of Independence by the
once proud and prosperous country
of Lithuania. For years, the an
niversary of this event was an oc-
casion for annual celebration not
only in Lithuania, but throughout
many parts of the world.
The tragic betrayal of Poland has
been frequently presented, and |
have always joined in every protest.
The American people have been
aroused and have constantly mani
tested their deep concern over the
distressing plight of Poland.
On this Lithuanian anniversary
we are impelled to lay bare anoth-
er victim of the same ruthless for
ces. Lithuania at one time had a
population of approximately 3,0G0,-
900 people. They had their own
language, their own culture and
customs and they We're sovereign
in spirit and in law. Lithuania was
proud member of the once League
of Nations and engaged in treaty
making with her neighbors includ-
ing Russia.
Today Lithuania is no longer an
independent state. She is one of
the victims of aggressions of Eu-
rope and the vacillating appeasing
foreign policy of the United States
of America.
Russia in violation of a solemn
treaty first took over the govern.
ment affairs of Lithuania in 1910
Later the Germans liberated Lith
uania from the Russians by inva
sion. Subsequently with our help
the Russians liberated Lith a n j {
from the Germans By invasion. Ii
beration by both Russia and Ger

deportation, Imprisonment, and fear

They read and they believed tn,

they ask that something be done
to carry out the high-sounding prin
ciples of both declarations. The At
lantic Charter provided:
q, Their country seek no ag
grandizement, territorial or other;
"2, They desire to see no terri
torial changes that do not accorc
with the freely expressed wishes
Of the peoples concerned;
"3, They respect the right of al
peoples to choose the form of gov.
ernment under which they will live
and they wish to see the sovereign
rights in government restored
to those who have been forcibly
deprived of them"
Certainly Lithuania falls within
the category of nations who have
had their sovereign rights in self
government forcibly deprived them
The Atlantic Charter was the re-
suit of a conference at sea between
the British Prime Minister and the
President of the United States in
August 1941. The world was infor-
med that Russia adhered to the
basic principles of the Charter on
September "a, 1941.

j. ). Has Peace Duty,
Bishop Shehan Says

Hatred and greed are major OBJ
stacles to world peace and the
United States has a responsibility
"'to take the leadership in making
a true peace, based on the justice
and charity of Christ" the Rev.
Lawrence j, Shehan, auxiliary
bishop of Washington and Balti-
more, told a Columbus Day gather
ing at the Mayfower Hotel last
night.
The meeting, attended by $50
members of the Knights of Colum-
bus and their friends, was under
the auspices of the state council
of the order here.
The bishop said the centuries -old
enmity between Slavs and Teutons,
the latter represented by Germany
and Austria, is really between the
East and West, between men who
hold different concepts of civiliza-
ton. He declared this hatred is
now complicated by nationalism.
He said the present hatred Of
classes cuts across these older
hatreds and "the whole world
seems to be one seething mass of
hatred
The other speaker, William H.
Collins, master of the Fourth De-
gree of the Knights of Columbus in
this area, warned of "insidious dam
gers that threaten us" and added
the sources are those very often
that would be least suspected"
TT is a fact that while this coun-
try is traditionally democratic, the
prevailing teaching of certain of its
political and legal philosophers is
essentially antidemocratic and to-
talitarian," Mr.. Collins said.
Walter I. Plant, past state deputy,
was toastmaster.

Cards Appear Stronger.
The Cardinals certainly will give
the Eagles more offensive trouble
than they met yesterday. as the
Cards 1921 triumph in their first
engagement indicates. The Chicago
outfit is not too deep, either. but on
paper packs more punch than its
Eastern rival. The Eagles have the

Cards to Be Favored for Title
In Battle With Eagles Sunday

The Cards nave Cnarley Irlppl,
Pat Harder and Elmer Angsman, all
of whom can give any team bad
day. They have a better thrower in
Paul Christman, plus two good re-
ceivers in Nal Kutner and Billy
Dewell, and a pretty good first line.
In the overall picture they just
seem to be too much football team
for the Eagles.
The critics were rather astonished
by the ease of Philadelphia de-
cision over a stout Pittsburgh eleven
that admittedly depended more on
team play than the individual bril-
lance OF any one performer. Pitts
burgh's line stopped the Eagles
ground gaining champion, Van
Buren. but Thompson caught the
secondary mapping couple of times
and that was enough to push over
the decisive touchdown.
