From information supplied by the American and British Consuls and also from other sources, it becomes clear that disorder and trouble in Vladivostok are still growing and the peaceful popu-Jation of the city is coming into danger of being plundered, wherefrom foreign residents may also suffer; therefore, I consider it expedient that in the forthcoming negotiations, the order for an immediate peaceful occupation of Vladivostok by the People's Revolutionary Army units be agreed upon. This act alone will serve as guarantee for the safety of Russian and foreign citizens and their property. I guarantee all subjects full immunity of person and property from the moment the People's Revolutionary Army units will take over the guarding of Vladivostok. On the other hand, I hope that the Japanese command og well as the British and American consular representatives will take all steps that until our troops enter the city full safety be guaranteed to all workers, political prisoners and adherents to the Far Eastern Republic now living in Vladivostok, and the criminal plundering, deportation of Russian goods, removal of Russian ships, and destruction of property be stopped.
