Dear Friends,

I am enclosing the decision of the Central Committee of our Party. 476 (The Karpinskys, after taking two copies, must return this decision to me immediately.) Take a copy of it (for yourselves) at once and send it by express, with the first train (take it to the station), to the Karpinskys, enclosing this letter of mine as well.

Notify Lausanne (Goberman) 477 specially.

For my part, I will add that I consider the Mensheviks, who have wrecked the common cause, to be first-class scoundrels, “afraid” of what “public opinion” will say, i.e., the social-patriots!!! 478 I (and Zinoviev) am going in any case.

Find out exactly: (1) who is going, (2) how much money they have.

Write this at once to Radomyslsky, Neufeldstr. 27. Bern.

We already have a fund of over 1,000 francs for travelling expenses. We think of fixing Wednesday, April 4, as the day of departure.

Everyone must get passports from the Russian consul at his place of residence i m m e d i a t e l y.

Greetings! Yours, Lenin

Send copies to Abram and his wife at once.

P. S. I am enclosing the 100 francs which you asked Gregory to lend you.
