1. In April 1980 the first issue of Tautos kelias (The Nation's way) consisting of thirty-seven pages made its appearance. The issue examines national questions. In the introduction the editors stated: "The ranks of those who fight and sacrifice to keep alive the nation's determination to regain its freedom are continually growing. This movement provided the incentive for Tautos kelias to appear .... Its goal is to support our fellow countrymen who are waging an unequal battle and to replace those who have been forced to withdraw from the field .... The occupational government will not last forever; the hour of liberation will come, and Lithuania will be free and independent. Encouraged by this conviction, we are taking the first step."
2. Aušra (Dawn), no. 21. The issue appeared in March.
