DOCUMENT NO. 8 (Reichsbank No. 2, Jan. 8, 1918.) Very Secret To the Commissar of Foreign Affairs: Information has today been received by me from Stockholm that 60,000,000 rubles of gold has been transferred to be put at the disposal of the representatives of the People's Commissars. This credit has been supplied to the Russian government in order to cover the cost of the keep of the Red Guards and agitators in the country.

The Imperial government considers it appropriate to remind the soviet of people's commissars of the necessity of increasing their propaganda in the country, as the antagonistic attitude of the south of Russia and Siberia to the existing government is troubling the German ter, it must be pointed out that until rebruary 1, the Kussian calendar was' 13 days behind the Western Euro pean calendar.

The significance of this letter is that it is to Lenin; that the two chief secretaries of himself and the council passed it on for action; and that Trotsky and Lenin on February 27 were continuing to hamper the Russian commander at a moment when the German army was threatening Petrograd.

Mosholov was one of the commissars on the staff of Krilenko, the commissar representing the Council of Commissars in the command of the Russian military forces. His achievements as a dis-organlzer were notable. This letter indicates that he had the confidence of Germany. Have original letter. DOCUMENT NO.

The Bolshevik government also required factory owners to pay regular wages to their workers while the latter served in the Red Guard. The notation on letter indicates that it was referred to Menshinski, the financial minister, whose expert councillor was the von Toll.

The conservation truck farm is to be operated along lines and by a policy to be directed by the Federal department of agriculture. That is of course, as far as is practicable.

dustrial and commercial organizations in Germany interested in trade relations with Russia have addressed themselves to me in. a letter, including several guiding indications. Permit me to bring them to your attention. 1. The conflict of the Russian revolution with the Russian capitalists absolutely does nt interest German manufacturing in so far a3 the question does not concern industry as such.

You can destroy the Russian capitalists as far as you please, but it would by no "means be possible to permit the destruction of Russian enterprises. Such a situation would produce a constant ferment in the country, supported by famine of n.a-terials and, in consequence of that, of products also. The English, American, and French capitalists take advantage of this disorder and under-stand how to establish here corps -of their commercial agents. It is necessary to remember that German Industry in the first years after the general peace will not be in a position to satisfy the. purchasing demand of the Russian market, having broad similar parallel tasks in the Near East, in in China, and in Africa.

2. It is essential, therefore, to conduct a canvass and gather statistical Information with regard to the condition of industry, and, in view of the absence of money in to address in business conversations whichever is desired of the groups of German Commercial banks. 3. Trade with Germany may be in the first period almost exclusively exchange for wheat and for any remaining products to receive household necessltlea. Everything which exeeds the limits of such trade should be paid for in advance to the amount of 76 per cent of the market value, with the payment of the remaining quarter in a six months period.

In place of such an arrange-ment, probably, it would seem to be possible to permit, privately, the taking of German dividend share on the Russian financial market, or solidly guaranteed industrial and railroad loans.) In view of the indicated Interest of German manufacturers and merchants In trade relations in Russia, I cordially beg you, Mr. Chairman, to inform me of the views of the Government regarding the questions touched upon, and to lecolve the assurances of my sincere respect.
