The Secretary of State to the Ambassador in Great Britain (Davis)
Washington, November 20,
1919, 4 p.m.
6194. Please note and repeat to Stockholm as Depts 1732. Your 4238, November 18, 5 p.m. No formal announcement of the kind indicated has been made. The telegram from London may be based upon informal talks with newspaper representatives in which the Department has, in fact, made it known that no compromise is contemplated with the Russian Bolshevik Government, that the United States does not intend to participate in the Baltic conference, and that everything practicable will be done in the way of economic relief for Russia.
