Throughout all these talks and these conferences nation after nation has been gobbled up by this siren of governments and tyrant of nations. I say to the gentleman that if his committee can focus the attention of the American people upon a new thought. a new action. a greater preparedness. a constructive purpose. and dominate in bringing aid to these freedomloving peoples who are looking to us for succor and strength. for aid and technical intelligence. than I think your committee will function in conformity with American tradition and be a credit to the greatness of our country. and will show that we can fight an enemy either by guerrilla warfare. or undermining the confidence of those who sit upon a keg of powder. All that is needed is an honest election to place them in the immigrant status to which they really belong. We have but to recall their persecutions of the Lithuanian nation in 1940 and 1941 when 60.000 were exiled to the wastes of Siberia. These freedomloving patriots were rooted from their communities and under the lash driven to barren areas to join the ranks of enslaved prisoners of other nations worked in the Russian mines.
