But in that rejoicing there is also disgust that such things can happen at all. and we are reminded again of the same tyranny -which forced Lithuania and other nations into submission. Before this Congress is the opportunity to demonstrate to the Soviet Union that this country. the largest in the free world. .willnat aid in giving that -nations -economy .any strengthening with ..our trade. .and remind -them at -the same time that human liberty is more important to us than their trade. I commend my colleagues in the House of Representatives for voting through a trade bill denying the Soviet Union most Savored nation status as a penalty for their emigration policies. and I urge our colleagues in the Senate to vote their approval of that bill as well as ask that the President give his signature when and if it goes to his desk. The trade bill is an American tribute to the plight of oppressed people everywhere. and a particular show of support for Lithuanlans and what their nation stands for.
