6299. Your 4877, May 25, 5 p.m. Foreign Office assures me British Government has no intention or desire to restrict legitimate Liberian trade, which it indeed wishes to foster as far as possible. The measures outlined in my 6208 are designed for cooperation with the United States in circumscribing German activities and interests there with a view to their complete elimination. Spring Rice is being instructed to confer with you and explain.
