The Ambassador in Japan (Morris) to the Acting Secretary of State

Your April 16, 6 p.m. I think the policy is not only adequate and feasible but is also one which will avoid involving us in a civil war in Siberia. The success of such a policy will depend on the measure of support which it receives from the other interested governments. The present conflict of policy is creating a dangerous situation.

I will not discuss the subject with the authorities here until I receive further instructions from you.

Morris
