The Acting Secretary of State to the Consul at Vladivostok (Caldwell)
Please show to all other American representatives and give such publicity as you may deem advisable, informing Harris via Peking of your action:
The purpose of the United States to support the Government of Admiral Kolchak and his associates, as expressed in an exchange of notes in May and June, 1919 between the heads of the principal Allied and Associated Governments at Paris and Admiral Kolchak at Omsk, remains unchanged. In continuing its efforts to carry out this purpose, the Government of the United States is confident of the cooperation of all elements in Russia which are devoted to the establishment of democratic institutions among the Russian people.
