[edit] Some questions
Some questions:
I can't find a dictionary entry for burmister; the Encyclopedia Lituanica describes him as mayor of Kaunas.
"All twenty members of the Council voted on February 16th to..." something here seems off, since there were 20 signatories to the Act.
"published laws governing cooperation companies" - maybe laws governing the interaction of business organizations?
"The Fourth Cabinet of Lithuania appointed Vileišis Minister of Finances" is there a date for that?
"More than 15 Lithuanian Litas costed water supply lines and sewerage" - how about "water supply and sewerage lines were built at a cost of 15,000 Litas". Or however many litas.
Should we change the award to Order of Vytautas the Great?
No references, uh-oh!

Burmister is Mayor, only German. At the time it was official name of the title.Lokyz 23:52, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
My English-German dictionary lists mayor as Bürgermeister. But are you sure you don't just want to use "mayor"? Novickas 00:21, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
- Np as for me, we might rename it to mayor and add explanation, that at the time in Lithuanian language this office was called "burmistras".
4th cabinet - June 12, 1919 - October 2.
Nope, it wqas laws on cooperation (such a form of business) lithuanian it would be Kooperacija, kooperatyvas.Lokyz 11:14, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] The only one?
In article: He was the only member to oppose the Declaration of Independence of December 11, 1917, but source which I am currently using states that 3 members voted against Act of 11. LRS source states that only he voted against, so can anybody check for more sources on this issue? M.K. 23:18, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
