[Telegram]

109. My telegrams Nos. 110, 111 contain text of the proclamation to the Finns of all countries which I have obtained from Senator [Page 805] Tokoi, former head of the Finnish Red Labor Government, and which I am forwarding with the approval of the Ambassador.1 The above-mentioned Finn is the same man for whom our Ambassador recently forwarded a proclamation to be inserted in the Stockholm Finnish newspaper.2 Actual Finnish text will also be sent to be inserted in the following Finnish newspapers should you deem it advisable: Riavaaja, Fitchburg, Massachusetts; (2) Tyomiennui of Calumet, Michigan; (3) Tyokansa at Port Arthur, Canada; (4) Toveri printed in Astoria, Oregon State.
