to Japan, who was sent into tho
heart of Siberia, to inquire and re
port. on the status of the Kolchak

cial mission and is now understood
to be enroute from Omsk to Tokio.
His reports have been made to Pres
ident Wilson, who is understood to
be personally directing American
activities in connection with de
velopments in Siberia.
His latest reports contain a strong
plea for the immediate recognition
of Admiral Kolchak's government.
In his most recently received cables
he insists that imfnediate recogni
tion is. highly essential to save tho
situation. It is understood that he
recommends that it be given and
that public announcement be made
o-f it for the moral effect such an
announcement would have on tliu
soldiers and population in Siberta.

slated that if recognition had been
accorded three months ago the
Kolchak government would prob
ably by this time bo firmly en
trenched and that the dangers
which have more recently threaten

definite recommendations that have
been made by Ambassador Morris,
and the clear reports he has made
