tional situation as it affects Russia,
David R. Francis, the American am
bassador. said:
America has no plans nor desires
for territorial conquest IN Russia.
While the present government has not
been recognized, both Premier Lenine
and Foreign Minister Trotzky are
aware, for so advised, them, that my
government would recognize any gov
ernment the people might select, pro-
vided that government would continue
war against the central powers. The
success of Germany would result in
the loss by Russia Of all that has been
gained by the revolution. The people
