National minorities within Estonia were granted the right to organize their schools and education and to develop their national culture through their own freely and democratically elected organizations. Social legislation in Estonia corresponded to modern Western European principles and because of a flourishing economic life. unemployment was nonexistent. Thirtythree years have passed since Estonia was overrun by the Communists and thousands of innocent people were inhumanly exiled. deported. and murdered. The sad fate and memory of these victims are very much alive today. and on the observance of the 55th anniversary of Estonian independence. we pay tribute to their blessed memory. while praying for the freedom of the Estonian people from Communist totalitarian tyranny. We in the free world enjoy all the benefits of political and economic libertyyet how can we fully enjoy our liberties while millions of our fellow men are deprived of the most fundamental human rights?
