We speak to our brothers scattered in many remote foreign countries. Four
years have passed since the and of the Uorld War II. The warm however,
has not ended in the Ukraine. You Ukrainians abroad have had the oppor-
tunity to a.tness the reconstruction of national lives by the nations of
Vestorn Europe and A ricer dnriug the four years of peace., In the Ukraai.ne,
however, peace does not exist. In the Ukraine the cruel war continues,, the
s ho tings have not coasod, and the fires are not. extinguished. In plants
and factories? in kolkhoz farms; and in privately otimed farms, in schools
and institutions, in the forests and mountains, in the Ukraine itself, s }.d
in remote Siberia and in Kazakhstan,,,the Ukrainian people today stand at
the liberation barricades. They stand bleeding but inflaxiblo, unvanquished
and unsubdued.
W .th. a detestation of onssJ ave w nt, serfdom, violence, and lawlessness, the
Ukrainian people have declared a relentless war against Russian-Bolshevik
Laoerialissn. With a Iaotiwledge of the justice of their cause the Ukrainian
people have risen to the some of sacrifice and heroism. Having taken their
fate into their can hands they have determined to achieve their liberation,
and 'they move restlessly, relentlessly? and foarlessly toward that end.

In this cruel struggle,, unequaled in history, no Ukrainian man or women

Ukrainian people in the homeland aro vitally Interested in whether the
erd-,ration keeps pace ideologically ::ith the homeland,, Whether or not it
lags behind the homeland, or whether it breaks down entirely. The Ukrainian
people have the right to require that its emigration does not abandon the
struggle in the homeland? and that it performs the mission given it by
history.
The embattled Ukraine requires first that the ~:krainieara emigration honestly
represent its nation and its liberation struggle to the non.T`icraainian
world, The 'Icrainc ? is now entering the international arena. The serld
knows little as yet of our nation,, and what I?zioaledre the world has is
still dasoure and distorted. To eorroot this condition and to bring the
truth about Ukraine and her struggle too all nations and peoples beyond the
borders of the USSR, is the primary task of the i.'I; ninian oraigratiotr.. The
homeland has helped and will continua to help to mike this pussible

always act so as to increase their glory, Ask yourself each day: what
have I done; for the benefit and profit of the T7kr:.ino?
You must be bound in spirit as closely aas possible to tho Ukraine, you

and courageously to secure that independence* Explain to then that by the
dismomberrtxont of the USSR the interests of all the nations of the world
will be served; for dis berme+nt is the only rxesns of destroying once and
for all the danger of the resurrection of Russian imperialism, which today
in the form of Bolshevism is menacing the entire world. Spread everywhere
the concept of building an international order founded on a system of free
and independent states for all peoples. Only such a system will create
favorable conditions for successful political, ethnic, and cultural co-
operation,, and unity among nations, and offers the opportunity of building
on the foundation of true equality of rights, good will, mutual respect,
and confidence. Only such a system will offer an and to bloody wars w4

Explain to your neighbors that the Ukrainian people are struggling for the
realization of the progressive ideas of humanity, for freedom of all
nations and all individuals, for true democracy? end for a just social order
in which there will be neither exploiters nor exploited.
The embattled Ukraine expects the Ukrainians abroad to spread tirelessly
the truth about Stalin*a USSR to all the peoples of the world and to
mobilize them activoly for the struggle against Russian-Bolshevik imperiaalisn,
l u.anaanity ? a greatest foe.
The world is still woefully ignorant of the truth about the U ,S'R, It still
does not fully comprehend the fact that it is itself threatened by Russian--
Bolshevik imperialism.. It is your great obli`:,ation, Ukrainians in foreign
countries, to reveal the true face of Bolshevism to all peoples? to tear
r$wray the mask of democracy and of Socialism,,, and to show of shevism to the
world in its hideous realityi Strive to enlighten the millions of .i'oroigixm

horrible oppression of the peoples in the USSR, the robbery of the wealth
of colonial slave states, the unprecedented exploitation and the slave

stifling of the intelligentsia.

Reveal to all peoples the nature of this land, in which rolifgion is stifled?
the church is dishonored, freedom of thought is stifled, where not only
Christian but general human morality is trampled under foot, and where to
the mockery and shame of all hi ituiity there loudly are proclaimed ta.e

Ukrainians. Autocophalous and Greek Catholic churches, about the murdered

The Russian-Bolshevik iraperialints have today enslaved many peoples and
tomorrow they are preparing to throw their yoke over all other peoples.
All iolshovik declarations about the possiblility of the peaceful co-
existonce of the two systems are only misleading propaganda.,. In fact all
the efforts of the Kremlin leaders are directed toward the preparation of
a new war for the acquisition of the entire world. The entire lies of the

The present situation shall not continue, The division between Catholics
and Orthodox, between Autoosphaalists and Uniioniatgr. and particularly
between `\' eaterners" and "easterners" should be abolished. Such divisions
cannot be tolerated with indifference,. The emigration must use all
poi mible means to destroy the obnoxious relics of long ala -ary and arti-
ficial frontiers by viioh the occupants divided and are still dividing;
the living body of the Ukrainian people. In the unity of work and struggle
all, differoncos among the Ukrainians should disappear. The nationally
conscious part of the emigration should do everything possible to raise
they level of national consciousness and political awareness of the loss
nationally minded part of the emigration. This is a very important and a
central task of the ('?nteraaal life of the Ukrainian migration. The solu-
tion of this problem is completely within the hands of the nationally
conscious part of the Ukrainian emigration.
At today's sig n,f ioa t rmoment in history for the Ukrainiaan people? the
Ukrainian, emigration cann~-t allcnr itself the luxury of divisions and
party feuds. Today all partisan disputes must be subordinated. to one
greater read, the task of liberating the Ukrainian people. Division today
must not be'botweenlone or another party but rather between patriots and
traitors to the Ula-ainian people.
The homeland sees no evil in the existence of various parties in the
emigration but rather in the `rallure of these 'parties to coexist and
cooperate with each other in their internal affairs.. The homeland is
indignant at the decay of political and public .morals among the Ukrainian
eamigration.. Such moral decay retards the liberation cause and dishonors
the whole nation in the eyes of foreigners and creates a false picture
of the struggle in the homeland. The. embattled Ukraine is indignant at
party struggle in the emigration there the national values and sanctities
are being bargained. The embattled Ukraine emphatically condemns all
those who,, failing to rise above their narrow party interests, speculate
on the liberation idea.
The homeland regrets to state that in the emigration there are those who
for a long time doubted the o.d.stonee of the UPA, the UMM, and the
underground GUN in the.Ukraines,. Raids by the UPA were necessary, t e
testimony of living witnesses was required, and the ins- gents had to
march over 1?00 kilometers fign;ating; all the way in order to definitely
convince those unbelieving Thor arcs that the UIIVR, the UPA, and the uUN
do exist and are active within id a 'Ukraine.., But even after this aaeldoii mont
some people in the emigration have attempted to lesson ;the significance of
the strut",?;Ie in the homeland, to narrow its extension and underestimate its
political value. The homeland appeals to all such people to suspend any
underestimation or depreciation of the liberation movement in the homeland
and to give. all their strength to the struggle of the embattled Ukraine.
To those so blinded by selfishness that they lack the courage and willing-
ness to abandon their attacks against the liberation movement in the home-
land, the homeland declares that their action will be regarded as a crime
against the Ukrainian people and its liberation struggle in the U;krai.nr).
Brothers in foreign countries& The country today has sworn full unity
the emigration ,dust do as r:rn ch.. All who grieve at the sorrow of their
nation, who truly thirst for its liber aation, .who treasure the idea of a
U1 .inian nat.;.on will unite in the joint effort for the achievement of
our groat goal,, ';-To must create a powerful single front and act !before
the foreign enrid resolutely and in union. Lot the political division of
the Ukrainians abroad be fcninde . 4 w the formation and growth of political
thoudrt and not on party :feuding,, iShoo7 that you uaidorsthnd the historical
value of the present moment and meet the challenge of your problem. Stand
as an example of unity and of organization for other peoples,, for unity
and organizing ability are needed by all peoples, to end victoriously the
struggle witl-a bolshevism.
