To:   I. F. POPOV

Take good care of all the documents which you will receive from Paris,
St. Petersburg and elsewhere for your work at the conference, and
then return them to me with care .

If St. Petersburg sends you Stoikaya Mysl [1] No. 18 and bourgeois newspapers for 4.IV and 5.IV. 1914,
these should be added as material to the C.C. report (on the
question of the liquidators’ attitude to the demonstration of
4.1V [2] ). The report is being sent to Inessa.

Your and Vladimirsky’s chief duty (Inessa is the French speaker) is to
write down as accurately as possible every thing that goes on, especially
the speeches of the Germans, and especially of Kautsky—and send
in a report on this to the C.C.

Demand a translation of everything into French and do not accept the
German language (in this sense).
