Top Secret.

Dear comrade Dimitrov,

As a supplement to my letter of 24. 1. 1938, I inform you that accusations which led to the expulsion of my brother Bela Szanto from the VKP(b) proved to be slander. The Molotovsky district VKP(b) committee refuted all accusations and readmitted [him] to the party without any party reprimand.[ii]

7. II. 1938.

With communist greetings,

Zoltan Szanto
