The Secretary of State to the Chargé in China (Mayer)
300. Third paragraph of your 465, December 1, 4 p.m. Your observation that the question of dangerous Bolshevist activities in China primarily is one of domestic Chinese administration has my complete approval. I would point out with respect to Marshal Chang’s contention that it is world-wide and international, that the American Government cannot concern itself with the matter except in case American interests are directly involved. The serious aspect of propaganda directed from Moscow is, however, fully appreciated by this Government.
