Washington. - Mortified by the
bloody reign of terror in Russia, the
United States Sept 81 called upon all
allied and neutral nations to consider
what they may do to impress upon
the Bolsheviki the aversion with
which the civilized world regards
their wanton crimes
BY direction of President Wilson.
Secretary Lansing dispatched instruc-
tons TO every American diplomatic
representative in the foreign capitals.
The action aligns the United States
with that of Great Britain and France
In declaring the Bolsheyih rcspon-
sible for the murders, crimes and ex-
cesses which have shocked the world,
outlaws and public enemies.
Whatever action may be decided
upon by the nations separately or in
concert. it is made clear will be quite
apart from the prosecution of the war
against Germany.
Text of the State Departments in
structions to the American diplo-
mats:
information from reliable sources re-
vealing that the peaceable Russian
citizens of Moscow. Petrograd and
other cities are suffering from an
openly aYowed campaign of marked
terrorism and are subject to whole
sale executions. Thousands OF per
sons have been shot without even a
form of trial: administered prisons
are filled beyond capacity and every
night scores of Russian citizens are
recklessly put to death, and irrespon-
sible bands are venting their brutal
passions in the daily massacre of I'M
told innocents.
'.In view of the earnest desire OF
the people of the United States to be-
friend the Russian people and lend all
possible assistance in their struggle
to reconstruct their nation upon prin-
ciples of democracy and self-govern-
ment and acting therefore solely in
the interest of the Russian people
themselves, this government feels that
1t cannot be silent or refrain from ex-
pressing its horror at this state of
terrorism Furthermore it believes
that in order to check the further in
crease of the indiscriminate slaugh-
ter of Russian citizens all civilized
nations should register their abhor-
renee of such barbarism
You will inquire, therefore. wheth-
err the government to which you are
accredited will be disposed to take
some immediate action which is en-,
tirely devoid from the atmosphere OF
belligerency and the conduct of the
war, to impress upon the perpetrators
of these crimes the aversion with
which civilization regards their pres,
ent wanton acts"
