THE PRESIDENT.

We had mass meeting of about three thousand Ukrainian workers and
peasants assembled at Ukrainian Territory River View Park June 15, respectfully
request you to recognize the goverment of the Russian Soviets Republic. We
join in the protest of the Russian Workers and peasants against the invasion
