BALTIC FREEDOM DAY
BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
A PROCLAMATION
It has been over 40 years since invading Soviet armies, in
these
collusion with the Nazi regime, overran the 3 independent Baltic
Republics of Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and forceably incorported
regisme
them into Moscow's expanding empire. The new communist masters
then ordered the illegal deportation, murder, and imprisonment of
tens of thousands of Baltic peoples whose only "crime" was to
resist foreign tyranny and to defend their liberties and
freedoms.
Oppression and persecution continue to this day, but despite
this long dark night of injustice, the brave men and women of
Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania have has never abandoned the battle for
their national independence and god-given rights. Although the
full measure of their struggle and sacrifice is screened by the
oppression and censorship under which they live, the friends and
families of the Baltic peoples all over the world are aware of
their heroic endeavors and aspirations.
Their peaceful demands for their rights and self-respect
command the admiration of everyone who loves and honors freedom.
All the people of the United State of America share the just
aspirations of the Baltic nations for national independence, and
we uphold their right to determine their own national destiny
free of foreign domination. The United States has never
recognized the forceable incorporation of the Baltic States into
the Soviet Union, and it will not do so in the future.
296, has authorized and requested the President to issue a
proclamation for the observance of June 14, 1984 as "Baltic
Freedom Day."
NOW, THEREFORE, I, RONALD REAGAN, President of the United
States of America, do hereby proclaim June 14, 1984 as Baltic
Freedom Day. I call upon the people of the United States to
observe this day with appropriate remembrances and ceremonies and
to reaffirm their commitment to the principles of liberty and freedom
for all oppressed people.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this
day of June, in the year of our Lord
nineteen hundred and eighty-four, and of the Independence of the
United States of America the two hundred and eighth.

SUBJECT:
Enrolled Resolution S.J. Res. 285
Harmon Killebrew Day and Accompanying
Draft Proclamation
We have been asked for our comments as soon as possible on
the enrolled resolution designating yesterday "Harmon
Killebrew Day," and the draft proclamation called for by the
resolution. Killebrew, who began his career with the
Washington Senators, will be inducted into the Hall of Fame
this August. It strikes me as unusual to single out Killebrew
for such special treatment, but Congress passed the resolution
by voice vote and of course we should sign it. OMB recommends
approval.
The draft proclamation, approved by OMB, reviews Killebrew's
accomplishments, recognizes "the other baseball immortals
enshrined in Cooperstown," and quotes some general musings
from Justice Blackmun on baseball. The quotation of
Blackmun is appropriate. Whatever his virtues as a jurist,
Blackmun is one of the greatest fans of the game. I have no
objection to the draft proclamation.

Last Day for Action
Recommend early action, since the designated day is today.
Purpose
Designates June 13, 1984, as "Harmon Killebrew Day."
Agency Recommendations
Office of Management and Budget

Discussion
S.J. Res. 285, which passed both Houses by voice vote,
designates June 13, 1984, as "Harmon Killebrew Day," and
requests the President to issue a proclamation calling upon the
people of the United States to observe this day with appropriate
ceremonies and activities.
The resolution notes that Harmon Killebrew was named to Major
League Baseball's Hall of Fame on January 10, 1984, and that
next to Babe Ruth, Harmon Killebrew is the most prolific home
run hitter in American League history. Mr. Killebrew played
Major League baseball for more than 17 full seasons, leading the
American League in home runs for 7 seasons and amassing 573 home
runs.
Senator McClure (who sponsored S.J. Res. 285) and Harmon
Killebrew both grew up in Payette, Idaho. Senator McClure, in
his introductory remarks on S.J. Res. 285, stated that Harmon
Killebrew, since his retirement, has been very active in several
worthy causes, the most prominent being the Danny Thompson
Leukemia Foundation. Danny Thompson, a former teammate of
Harmon Killebrew, was a second baseman for the Minnesota Twins
who died of leukemia at the age of 26. In the few years since
Harmon Killebrew and former Congressman Ralph Harding started
the Foundation, it has raised over $400,000 for leukemia
research. The money is raised primarily through the Danny
2
Thompson Memorial golf tournament held annually in Sun Vally,
Idaho. Members of both the Senate and the House participate in
this event.

HARMON KILLEBREW DAY
BY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
A PROCLAMATION
On August 12, 1984, Harmon Killebrew will be inducted into
the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, New York. As a
seventeen year old, Harmon Killebrew signed with the late
Washington Senators and played with that franchise in the
Nation's Capital and after its transfer to Minnesota. In an
illustrious career, he hit 573 home runs, second only to Babe
Ruth among all players in American League history. Harmon
Killebrew was a member of the American League All-Star team on
eleven occasions, and in 1969, he hit 49 home runs and batted in
140 runs and was named the American League's Most Valuable
Player.
In honoring Harmon Killebrew, we recognize the
accomplishments of the other baseball immortals enshrined in
Cooperstown and the many contributions the sport has made to
American culture and myth. Harmon Killebrew is the latest in a
lengthy list of players who, in the words of Justice Harry
Blackmun of the United States Supreme Court, "have sparked the
diamond and its environs and that have provided tinder for
recaptured thrills, for remininscence and comparisons, and for
conversation and anticipation
and all other happenings,
habits, and superstitions about and around baseball that have
made it the 'national pastime' or, depending upon the point of
view, 'the great American tragedy.
The Congress, by Senate Joint Resolution 285, has designated
requested the President to issue a proclamation in observance of
this event.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, RONALD REAGAN, President of the United
States of America, do hereby proclaim June 13, 1984, as Harmon
Killebrew Day, and I call upon the people of the United States to
observe that day with appropriate ceremonies and activities.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand this

Discussion
In addition to designating the week of December 9 through
December 15, 1984, as "National Drunk and Drugged Driving
Awareness Week, S.J. Res. 303 authorizes and requests the
President to issue a proclamation calling upon the people of the
United States to observe the week with appropriate activities.
The week of December 9 comes just before the Christmas and New
Year holiday period, an appropriate time for heightened public
awareness of the dangers of drunk and drugged driving.
A draft proclamation will be forwarded for your consideration at
a later date. S.J. Res. 303 passed both Houses by voice vote.

SUBJECT:
Enrolled Resolution S.J. 278
100th Anniversary of the Bureau
of Labor Statistics
Richard Darman has asked for comments on the above-
referenced enrolled resolution by close of business today.
The resolution praises the contributions of the Bureau of
Labor Statistics throughout its 100-year history. The
resolution does not request a Presidential proclamation, but
simply commends the BLS for its history of service. The
resolution passed both Houses by voice vote. OMB and Labor
recommend approval. I have reviewed the memorandum for the
President prepared by OMB Acting Assistant Director for
Legislative Reference Naomi R. Sweeney, and the resolution
itself, and have no objections.

Discussion
Legislation to establish a Federal Labor Bureau, now known as the
Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), was enacted on June 27, 1884,
with a mission for the Bureau to collect information on "the
subject of labor, its relation to capital, the hours of labor,
and the earnings of laboring men and women
The enrolled resolution recognizes and commends the exemplary
service of BLS Administrators and employees over the last
century. It notes that the BLS has pursued its responsibilities
with absolute integrity and has established the highest standards
of professional competence and commitment. S.J. Res. 278 also
notes that during its century of service to government, business,
labor, and the public, the BLS has produced indispensable data on
the labor force and the economy, such as the unemployment rate
and the consumer price index.
The resolution was passed by voice vote in both Houses.
