We respectfully request the PREST- DENT OF THE UNITED STATES and the SECRETARY OF STATE to extend to the Lithuanian Government formal recognition, based not only on these grounds of justice, but that | through this, they may the better be | able to withstand the attempts of the | Present regime of Russia or any other | alien government to impose a foreign | rule upon them. NAME ADDRESS | American citizens of Lithuanian origin and Lithuanians residing in this country wish to felicitate you on your successful efforts to establish the | peace of the world, to pledge uncon- | ional support of your excellency’s great, masterful princinles of world's democracy as repeatedly expressed in | vour speeches and your fourteen points of peace, and also to lay before you the present situatian of the case of Lithuania and the grave grievance arising therefrom. Oppressed by the czaristic regime of Russia, Lithuanians were driven to emigrate from their native country | and seek haven of refuge in other | more liberal and tolerant islands. As 1888 Lithuanian masses found that the United States of Amer- ica was the haven of refuge they sought, where freedom of speech, press, religion and the right to enjoy the blessings of life, liberty and hap- | piness was accorded to everyone. They soon were eager and proud to adopt it as their new fatherland, and to preach and disseminate similar ideas of liberty, justice and equality amangst their brethren left behind in the unhappy, oppressed and persecut- ed Lithuania. The outbreak of this great world" war thus found the native Lithuan- ians fully prepared as to with whom they should side. About three hun- dred thousand of them fought cagerly with the Russian armies against Ger- many. More than half of this num- | ber perished. Later on, when our newly adopted country, the United States, was forced into war, we very earnestly entered the services of the United States army, and to insure and augment the victorious forces we de- cided not to organize separate Jump from Bed in Morning and Drink Hot Water Tells why everyone should drink hot water each morning- before breakfast.
