Dear friend! Please hurry as much as possible with the leaflet. If the translation is dragging on, send me at once a copy of the Russian text; the thing is that an opportunity to Germany is presenting itself. This is such a rarity that one must seize it, and the opportunity will soon pass.

The searches of E. F. in Kharkov and the "documents" have been investigated by a commission!!

From Bern Grigory writes about a great victory over the Grimm company yesterday! Hurrah!

Press hard on the youth! But what about the battle against Droz? what about the referendum?

Surely you are not writing the French and English translation of the leaflet in two copies?

Shaking your hand firmly. Your Lenin in Clarens (Switzerland)
