Comrade Nikolayev!

We must make final use of this protocol and of your being brought in (at last the inventor and our capricious fellow No. 250 is beginning to understand that we cannot get along without a specialist!) in order radically to reorganise the whole business.

1) Carefully study the protocol and question the mechanic at the electric power station;

2) on the basis of this, decide for yourself whether it is worth while to continue the experiments;

3) if, in your opinion, it is worth while, we shall draw up a precise written constitution, giving the specialist (i.e., you) full powers—with a guarantee from me to the inventor that the secret will be kept.

And then start working in earnest, i.e., with the enlistment of specialists for a number of subsidiary special jobs and with one specialist (you) in the know of all the secrets.

Greetings! Lenin
