Mr. Speaker. mans devotion to the fundamental principles of liberty and freedom was reinforced by the Baltic States freedom rally held at the New York City Town Hall last Sunday. June 13. commemorating the 13th anniversary of Communist aggression against the Baltic States and the first mass deportation of the peoples of Estonia. Latvia. and Lithuania. Representatives of each of the Baltic States contributed to this program of the spirit of national independence which included selections by the Lithuanian Operatic Choir. the New York Estonian Male Choir. and the Latvian Evangelical Lutheran Church Choir of New York. This solemn observance of terrorism and deportation served to emphasize our resolve that the peoples of Latvia. Lithuania. and Estonia will regain their freedom. I was deeply appreciative of the opportunity to join in these observances and. under unanimous consent. include my address in the Appendix of the RECORD:
