New Lithuanian Envoy Arrives in Capital To Take Up Duties (Teontinu~d From First Page.) |ing in a technical college of Russia | when the Russo-Japan War gave op- | portunity for the beginnings of th | revolution which less than 20 years | later caused the collapse of the Roman- | off empire. For participation in the student uprising, M. Balutis was exiled | in 1905 and came to the United States, | where after some wandering he finally | took up residence in Chicago. Being | a pifted writer, he found employment {on the Lithuanian daily, Lietuva, of | that city, and very soon became its editor and chiet publisher. In the in- terval he studied law at the Kent Col- lege and graduated with high honor |and was admitted to the bar of the State of Illinois. During the World War he was made director of the edi- | torial appeals in Lithuanian and other foreign ~ papers, which appeared | throughout the country appealing in behalf of the Liberty loans and later for the draft campaigns. | In 1917, M. Balutis came to Wash- ington as the chairman of tHe delega- !tion of American Lithuanians in that | congress of the oppressed nations which had appealed to President Wil- son for intervention in behalf of their | political emancipation. He also was the chief spokesman at the Peace Confer- ence in Paris in 1019, and preseni t! claims of American Lithuanians, SOCIETY. 5 |ana of all others of that nationality, whether in the homeland or in exile. | From Paris M. Balutis returned to his | native country, after an absence of 14 | years, and has been conspicuous in all conferences dealing_with the foreign | policy of Lithuania. He has been almost continuously in the Lithuanian capital, and in July was president of the Lith- uanian-Polish conference at Kaunas on the question of security and reparations dealing with the raid of the Polish commander, Gen. Zeligowski, on Lith- | uanian territory in 1920. |~ This scholariy and able envoy of th: | Baltic republic is of most pleasing per- scnality. He knows this country as an | expert and heas excellent command of | the language. He reports substantial economic progress of his nation and of the increasing interest of American | citizens in the hitherto almost unknown | region of the Baltic Seas. Many travel | there in Summer and the art and in- | dustries are engrossing the attention of these visitors. Practically seven-eighths | of all the amber of the world comes from | Lithuania and the uses to which this | lovely product is placed is generally be- | coming known ir other parts of the world and is resulting in increased ex- | ports.
