Draft Decision for the Plenum of the C.C., R.C.P.(B.) [1]

Zinoviev to be instructed to draw up detailed directives to
Kopp and other comrades from the People’s Commissariat for Foreign Trade
and to the comrades working in Germany.

Mention to be made that we accept and highly appreciate the assistance
of the rank-and-file workers in the execution of orders for Russia,
including those workers who belong to the most reactionary of the trade
unions.

At the same time we should expose the Legiens & Co., who want to make
money out of this for themselves or their party, and give no money.

The text to be submitted to the Politbureau.
