Lembit Lüüs remembers growing up in Mõisaküla

Lembit Lüüs meenutab lapsepõlve Mõisakülas

Mõisaküla, a small railway town on the Latvian border, was where Lembit Lüüs grew up. In the first of several conversations with Lembit Lauri he describes his home place and his parents, then follows his schooling to the Pärnu Boys' Gymnasium and its teachers, and his law studies at Tartu University. He also explains how his interest in politics began and what his first jobs were. In 1940 he became a people's commissar in the first government of Soviet Estonia.

Eesti keeles

Mõisaküla, väike raudteelinn Läti piiri ääres, oli paik, kus Lembit Lüüs üles kasvas. Esimeses vestluses Lembit Lauriga kirjeldab ta oma kodukohta ja vanemaid, seejärel koolitee kuni Pärnu Poeglaste Gümnaasiumi ja sealsete õpetajateni ning õigusteaduse õpinguid Tartu Ülikoolis. Ta räägib ka, kuidas tekkis huvi poliitika vastu ja kus ta esimestel töökohtadel töötas. 1940. aastal sai temast Nõukogude Eesti esimese valitsuse rahvakomissar.
