We have received your letter of March 15, and we thank you for 
the detailed report about the present state of our Association in 
Spain, a very satisfying state in the circumstances at the moment.” 
We will publish the most important elements of this report, we will 
send you a letter for the Saragossa Congress, and we will send you 
a telegram later. The telegram will be in the name of the General 
and British Federal Councils. As for France, with the Dufaure 
law against the International, there is no way to maintain a 
Federal Council, but we will write to Paris so that the “Ferré 
Section” * sends you a letter for the Congress—there will be no 
signatures but you will receive it signed ‘Ferré Section”, which will 
be in order. In Germany the recent trials have disorganised. the 
Association for the moment, and as you will know Liebknecht and 
Bebel have been condemned to two years in prison, mainly 
because of involvement with the International; sending a 
telegram from there would be impracticable at the moment; 
however we have sent your letter to Germany. 

There is no problem about stamps. Ask for as many stamps as 
you think you will need, and send us the quotas or parts of the 
quotas received before the lst July; then two or three weeks before 
the General Congress you can send us the rest with the stamps 
which you have not used. We have a large quantity and it will not 
matter if your delegates at the Congress return us a thousand or 
two. 

Yesterday afternoon Jung the treasurer did not come to the 
Council. I have sent him the receipt to sign and when I have it 

a See this volume, pp. 137-39.— Ed. 

back from him I shall send it with the letter for the Saragossa 
Congress. 

We hope that you will submit the resolutions of the London 
Conference to the Regional Congress for their approval. These 
resolutions have so far been recognised by the German, Romance, 
German-Swiss (Zurich), English, Dutch and American federations 
and by the French and Irish sections.
