We have repeatedly seen in the many years since 1940 that our nonrecognition policy is a continuing symbol to the people of the Baltic States of hope for the future. It is a constant reminder that we have not forgotten them. The LithuanianAmerican Community of the U.S.A. urges the United States to insist that the following policies be adopted by the Soviet Union: First. A lowering of the excessive tariffs imposed on parcels to relatives and friends residing in the Baltic States. Second. An increase in the duration of the current 5day tourist visa to a more reasonable limit. Third. Elimination of unreasonable travel restrictions on tourists to Lithuania.
