File No. 867.4016/74
The Secretary of State to the Ambassador in Turkey (Morgenthau)
865. Your 841, July 10. Department approves your procedure in pleading with Turkish Minister of Interior and Minister of War to stop Armenian persecution and in attempting to enlist sympathies of German and Austrian Ambassadors in this cause. The Department can offer no additional suggestions relative to this most difficult situation other than that you continue to act as in the past. Have any native-born American citizens or any naturalized American citizens entitled to protection under American statutes received injuries during this trouble?
