Scope and Contents

About sending a gift to Georg Branting, and translations of memorandums of the first and second motions; asking that either Dos Passos or Frankfurter books be sent to Li Pei Kan, along with copies of his own "Vita Proletaria" and "Background"; referring to Milio [Emilio Coda], [Luigi] Bertoni, Labrado [Fivera], Raffaele [Schivina], [Felice] Guadagni, and others. 1 s. (2 p.) In Italian.

Translation:

Has been playing bocce – has been writing a lot, but still owes answers to many friends. Is sending a present to Branting as a surprise. Hopes to get Bertoni’s answer, the latter undertook to publish his memoirs in French and is sending copies in Italian and English. Asks about Guadagni’s translation. He is sure that when Bertoni sees the beauty and importance of the work, he will want to publish both in one volume. A young Chinese man wrote to him in English from Paris telling him of an article he wrote in the only anarchist Chinese publication “The Evangelist.”
