 This is why there is agreement be- tween the French government and the American government to encourage all efforts made with a view to bringing about an armistice between Poland and Russia while avoiding giving to the negotiations a character which might result in the recognition of the bol- shevik regime and in the dismember- ment of Russia.
 "The federal government, as the in terpreter of the feelings of the Ameri- can people, desires to help the Russian people, in whose future the United States retains an unshaken faith. The government of the republic associates itself unreservedly with this -declara tion. The French government has never altered in its determination to uphold the principles so clearly for mulated by the United States. It is in this spirit that it has decided not to approve the armistice conditions of feerd to Poland unless they are in con formity with these principles.
