And the assassins ran after me, and I ran, and ran, until at last they caught me, and tied me by the neck to a tree in this wood, and said to me: "To-morrow we shall return here, and then you will be dead with your mouth open, and we shall be able to carry off the pieces of gold that you have hidden under your tongue."'

'And the four pieces—where have you put them?' asked the Fairy.

'I have lost them!' said Pinocchio; but he was telling a lie, for he had them in his pocket.

He had scarcely told the lie when his nose, which was already long, grew at once two fingers longer.

'And where did you lose them?

'In the wood near here.'

At this second lie his nose went on growing.

'If you have lost them in the wood near here,' said the Fairy, 'we will look for them, and we shall find them: because everything that is lost in that wood is always found.'

was the night-editor of the respectable Dawn. This knowing journal declared that "business men desire a news paper which they can take home to their families," and, with the immodest confidence of virtue, asserted that it "filled this longfelt want." Its columns were carefully kept unspotted from sensational crime. It was edited with the most solicitous regard for the proprieties. Its proofs were reported to be read by Mrs. Grundy herself. "The duty of the press," said the Dawn, "is to conserve the public morals. The editor, with a high ideal of the function of journalism, will not follow the almost universal and highly regrettable fashion of the times, and sacrifice decency to dollars." This truly disinterested paper sacrificed indecency on the same altar, without a blush, and, with a pride that aped humility, posed as the Dawn of a Better Day. By the same token, Hunt occupied a position of eminence.

When he reached the editorial rooms in the evening he usually found Master, his assistant, already seated at the big night-desk hard at work. Hunt had not been so many years in existence, as Master had been in journalism; and his superiority in rank made his

 his senior sulky. A grumpy "hello" was all the greeting he ever got. That so old a man should "play baby" struck Hunt as comic, and his subordinate s grudging welcome was become an enjoyment which through force of indulgence he unconsciously demanded. Therefore, to-night, when on coming into the office he found Master s chair empty he felt vaguely aggrieved. He thought of himself, charitably, as missing the elder man: what he did actually miss was the agreeable fillip which the spectacle of the old man s glumness always gave his sense of humour.

Perhaps, however, his indefinite feeling of discomfort was due in part to the cheerless aspect of the room. Usually when he entered the place it was lighted and occupied; to-night no one was about, and the one gas jet that was burning showed a mere tooth of flame within its wire muzzle. The little closets of the reporters, each with a desk and a chair in it, which were ranged like so many doorless state-rooms against the sides of the apartment, appeared dimly in the gloom as black, uncanny hole?. On the fourth side, under the gaslight and covered with a disorderly array of shears, pencils, bottles of mucilage, and of ink, pens and paper, was the big and battered night-desk. Recognisable above it by persons unhappily familiar with such objects, were the electric messenger call and fire alarm. Higher still, there perched in solitary state upon a shelf a dusty and dented gas-meter. The dirty floor was littered with rumpled and torn newspapers, splotched with tobacco juice, and strewn with the ends of cigars and cigarettes. Nauseating black beetles scampered everywhere, lurked in corners and cracks, and rustled in the papers. Five were drinking from the inkstand. The atmosphere was heavy with the odours of damp paper, printer's ink, and stale tobacco. "Such," reflected Hunt with grim humour, "is the golden East from which appears the worshipped Dawn." Hunt,

Whereas the people of the Baltic Republics of Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia have cherished the principles of religious and political freedom and independence; and Whereas the Baltic Republics have existed as independent, sovereign nations belonging to and fully recognized by the League of Nations; and Whereas the people of the Baltic Republics have individual and separate cultures, national traditions, and languages distinctively foreign to those of Russia; and Whereas the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (U.S.S.R.) in 1940 did illegally seize and occupy the Baltic Republics and by force incorporate them against their national will and contrary to their desire for independence and sovereignty into the U.S.S.R.; and Whereas the U.S.S.R. since 1940 has systematically removed native Baltic peoples from their homelands by deporting them to Siberia and caused great masses of Russians to relocate in the Republics, thus threatening the Baltic cultures with extinction; and Whereas the U.S.S.R. has imposed upon the captive people of the Baltic Republics an oppressive political system which has destroyed every vestige of democracy, civil liberties, and religious freedom; and Whereas the people of Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia find themselves today subjugated by the U.S.S.R., locked into a union they deplore, denied basic human rights, and persecuted for daring to protest; and Whereas the United States stands as a champion of liberty, dedicated to the principles of national self-determination, human rights, and religious freedom, and opposed to oppression and imperialism; and Whereas the United States, as a member of the United Nations, has repeatedly voted with a majority of that international body to uphold the right of other countries of the world, including those in Africa and Asia, to determine their fates and be free of foreign domination; and Whereas the U.S.S.R. has steadfastly refused to return to the people of the Baltic States the right to exist as independent republics separate and apart from the U.S.S.R. or permit a return of personal, political, and religious freedoms: Now, therefore, be it Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That the Congress of the

Whereas motor vehicle collisions are the primary cause of death of children over the age of six months in the United States; Whereas motor vehicle collisions are the primary cause of the crippling of children in the United States; Whereas more children under the age of five years are killed or crippled as passengers involved in motor vehicle collisions than the total number of children killed or crippled by the seven most common childhood diseases: pertussis, tetanus, diphtheria, measles, mumps, rubella, and polio; Whereas motor vehicle collisions are the leading trauma related cause of spinal cord injuries, epilepsy, and mental retardation in the United States; Whereas during the years 1978 through 1982 nearly three thousand and four hundred children under the age of five years were killed in traffic collisions, and more than two hundred and fifty thousand children were injured in the United States; Whereas an unrestrained child is less protected by padding and energy-absorbing materials than an adult in a motor vehicle collision, because protective devices are placed in areas more likely to benefit adults; Whereas unrestrained children are subject to a significantly higher risk of serious head, spine, chest and abdominal injury in motor vehicle collisions than older passengers because the bodies of children are less developed and provide less protection; Whereas an unrestrained child in a motor vehicle collision faces an increased danger of fatal or serious injury from ejection as well as injuries resulting from contact with the vehicle interior; Whereas an unrestrained child in a motor vehicle not involved in a collision may be killed or injured as a result of sudden stops, turns, swerves, or from the unrestrained child falling from a moving vehicle; Whereas forty-two States and the District of Columbia have enacted laws mandating the use of child safety restraint systems; Whereas only 40 percent of children under the age of five are protected by child safety seats in the United States and national surveys show that over 70 percent of such seats are used incorrectly;

-j-o provide for the designation of the last week in June 1984 as "Helen Keller Deaf-Blind Awareness Week".

Whereas the anniversary of the birth of Helen Keller, the most accomplished, respected, and renowned deaf-blind American in our history, falls on June 27; and Whereas deaf-blindness is one of the most severe of all disabilities, with respect to which some forty thousand Americans are deprived of two primary senses; and Whereas the rubella epidemic of the 1960's, along with other pathologies, has resulted in deaf-blindness for approximately six thousand of our children; and Whereas, because of the severity of deaf-blindness the cost of educating, training, and rehabilitating persons who are deaf and blind is high in comparison with other disabilities; and Whereas this high cost causes many service agencies to be reluctant to serve deaf-blind persons, thus inhibiting the independence and self-sufficiency of such persons, and frequently resulting in their placement in custodial institutions; and Whereas, although the Helen Keller National Center and its network, and regional deaf-blind centers serve a portion of this population, inadequate education, training and rehabilitation services to the deaf-blind population represents a terrible waste of human lives and resources, imposing a high economic cost on the Nation; and Whereas it is in the national interest to prevent this waste of human resources, foster independence, create opportunities for employment, and maximize the ability to achieve among our deafblind citizens; and Whereas these objectives can be accomplished only through an increased public awareness of, and attention to, the needs, abilities, and potential contributions to society of persons who are both deaf and blind; and Whereas it is highly appropriate to publicize the needs, abilities, and potential of all deaf-blind persons, and simultaneously to recognize Helen Keller not only as a beacon of courage and hope for our Nation, but also as a symbol of what is possible for deaf-blind persons to achieve: Now, therefore, be it

Public Law 98-322 98th Congress An Act To designate certain National Forest System lands in the State of Vermont for inclusion in the National Wilderness Preservation System and to designate a national recreation area.

June 19, 1984 [H.R. 4198]

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled. That this Act may Vermont Wilderness Act be cited as the "Vermont Wilderness Act of 1984". of 1984. TITLE I—NEW WILDERNESS AREAS FINDINGS AND POLICY

National Wilderness Preservation System. National Forest System.

SEC. 101. (a) Congress finds that— (1) in the vicinity of major population centers and in the more populous eastern half of the United States there is an urgent need to identify, designate, and preserve areas of wilderness by including suitable lands within the National Wilderness Preservation System; (2) in recognition of this urgent need, certain suitable lands in the National Forest System in Vermont were designated by Congress as wilderness in 1975; (3) there exist in the National Forest System in the vicinity of major population centers and in Vermont additional areas of undeveloped land which meet the definition of wilderness in 16 USC 1131. section 2(c) of the Wilderness Act; (4) lands in Vermont which are suitable for designation as wilderness are increasingly threatened by the pressures of a growing and concentrated population, expanding settlement, spreading mechanization, and development and uses inconsistent with the protection, maintenance, and enhancement of their wilderness character; and (5) the Wilderness Act establishes that an area is qualified 16 USC 1131 and suitable for designation as wilderness which (i) though note. man's works may have been present in the past, has been or may be so restored by natural influences as to generally appear to have been affected primarily by the forces of nature, with the imprint of man's work substantially unnoticeable, and (ii) may, upon designation as wilderness, contain certain preexisting, nonconforming uses, improvements, structures, or installations; and Congress has reaffirmed these established policies in the designation of additional areas since enactment of the Wilderness Act, exercising its sole authority to determine the suitability of such areas for designation as wilderness. (b) The purpose of this title is to designate certain National Forest System lands in the State of Vermont as components of the National Wilderness Preservation System, in order to preserve such areas as an enduring resource of wilderness which shall be managed to perpetuate and protect watersheds and wildlife habitat, preserve scenic and historic resources, and promote scientific research, primi-
