June 9, 1920

I request that a coded telegram be sent to Litvinov and Krasin as follows:

In Paris, 14th arrondissement, at 5 Rue Victor Considérant, lives Monsieur Weisbein, who has a suitcase containing my party and personal archive. Endeavor to obtain it in the utmost secrecy. Weisbein works at the office of "Florence," 40 Boulevard Saint-Michel.
