In Kazan there is (at the University, docent or professor,
etc.)
Adoratsky.
I have known him for over 10 years. A most reliable man. A welleducated Marxist.
I
gave him the assignment to write an essay on the history of the revolution.
* The manuscript breaks off here.

I ask you to:
1) actively utilize him for lectures, etc.
2) help him with AN ENHANCED ration for him and his family,
firewood, etc.
3) telegraph me his address (and what has been done for him).
