United States urged to intervene in Russia
Prominent Russian figures in Petrograd and Moscow pressed for American intervention to restore an Allied front in Russia. They proposed a limited force of 25,000 with broader support, arguing U.S. entry would deter German domination, aid Provisional Government efforts, and influence Bolshevik power while seeking safe ports and popular consent. Mrs. Pankhurst plans a New York lecture tour to boost American interest.
