Dear comrade!

I am sending you two letters***. The 1st from Poletaev, the 2nd from Negorev (Iordanskii).

* It is impossible to win in the Seven. This means we must proceed to a foreign plenum: summon Makar and Lyubich and clarify the matter to them.

** The letter was apparently addressed to A. I. Rykov. —Ed.

*** Keep these letters and be sure to return them to me immediately after use.
