6077. Your 4726, April 19, 6 p.m. British Government is now instructing Spring Rice to propose that American, French, and British representatives at Monrovia jointly advise Liberian Government to break with Germany; promises such assistance as may be necessary.
The suggestion of sending a ship or ships to Liberian waters seems good to the Foreign Office who are consulting Admiralty and will give me answer later.
