Paris Peace Conf. 184.1 Morison, Samuel E.
Mr. S. E. Morison to the Secretary General of the Commission to Negotiate Peace (Grew)
My Dear Mr. Grew: I have the honor to request the Commissioners to accept my resignation as an attaché to the American Commission to Negotiate Peace.
The occasion for my renewing this request, originally made on May 15th, is the adoption by the United States Government of a Russian policy fundamentally opposed to my conception of what is practical toward Russia as a whole, and what is just toward the Baltic states with which I have been especially charged. Under these circumstances I cannot honestly or with self-respect remain attached to the American Commission to Negotiate Peace any longer than may be necessary to obtain the appointment of a new American member to the Baltic Commission.
Thanking you for the several courtesies received from you while in Paris,
Very respectfully,
