Letter to Zhang Wei and Madam Zhang
(April 15, 1957)

Source: S/n, p. 523.
See text Sept. 19, 1950, vol. I, source note.
Comrade Zhang and Madam Zhang:

I have received your letter and I am deeply concerned. Although your sickness

Is serious, it is always possible to be cured. I hope very much that you will rest up
and allow yourself to be nursed back to health without worry and care, and strive
for a turn for the better. With regard to the things [you told me in your letter] about
how the various comrades—members of your family—are working hard to make
progress, I will, naturally, do what I can to help them in their endeavor as you have
asked me to; in doing so I will merely be fulfilling my responsibilities as your old
friend. I hope that Madam Zhang would feel free to keep me informed about your
circumstances at any time.

the USSR, lasted from April 15 to May 6, and then May 24-26, 1957. He gave a speech at
the Enlarged Meeting of the Standing Committee of the Chinese National People’s Congress

been made at the beginning of the year; see text Jan. 6, 1957.)

Mao's speech here was delivered at Nanwan Airport, Beijing, where Mao personally
welcomed Voroshilov and his entourage.
