Mr. Speaker. today marks the 39th anniversary of the signing of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. With this anniversary. we can reflect on the progress made this year on human rightsrising Soviet emigration levels. increasing numbers of persons permitted to travel from East Germany. the lifting of martial law in Taiwan. free elections in Korea and Turkey and promising negotiations toward peace in Central America. But we know that hard work helped to make this possible and we cannot rest until basic human rights are restored to individuals everywhere. Today I am introducing a resolution regarding the recent arrest of four people in East Berlin.
