1890 [1980]. There is a feeling here among some that it would be unworthy [unwise] to recognize the Omsk Government even provisionally because it seems to be a military dictatorship. If Koltchak were to take steps at once to summon a Constituent Assembly it might lessen opposition to some form of recognition. What are your views as to the possibility of inducing such action by Koltchak?
