We have rejoiced with the Ukrainians over their brief period of freedom following World War I. a period during which the Ukraine was a democratic Republic. Again today we have told the story of 4 years of bloody struggles with the Bolsheviks which terminated in Communist rule. We have recounted the purges. deportations. and genocide by which the Russians decimated the Ukrainian intelligensia and leadership. But ahead we see the breaking of a new day of freedom. Last June in the capital of the free world. people of Ukrainian blood proved to the world that their determination to be free is indomitable.
