Mr. President. in the year 1940 there occurred a crime of such magnitude that its full dimensions have never been grasped by the people of the world. I refer to the mass deportations of many thousands of men. women. and children to Siberia from Estonia. Latvia. and Lithuania. Only for a short time in the course of their modern history were the unhappy peoples of the three Baltic countries allowed to live in peace and relative prosperity in their homelands. After suffering under alien yokes for centuries. at last they regained their freedom and independence at the end of World War I.
