FOR THE SECRETARIAT OF THE R.C.P.(B.) CENTRAL COMMITTEE

11/VI.

Comrade Molotov,

I and all the workers of the Party centre knew Suren Spandaryan in 1908-1909. He was a very valuable and prominent worker. Stasova must know him—and also the Caucasians (Yenukidze, perhaps). Suren’s

father received assistance from us in Paris in 1910-1911 at Suren’s request.*

I propose that the Secretariat of the Central Committee:

1) have the enclosed letter translated; 400

2) ask Stasova and Yenukidze and others who knew Suren and his father (if the Secretariat considers an additional inquiry necessary); inquire about
sending him to Tiflis;

3) instruct Bagotsky (Red Cross?) in Switzerland or Klyshko in London to get in touch with Suren’s father and help him with money, as the father of a prominent revolutionary. 401

With Communist greetings, Lenin
