May 24, 1926

Greetings!

Arrived at the destination on Sunday evening. The weather is not great so far. The harvest prospects for the North Caucasus are good. That is good.

Belenky reports that: 1) Trotsky was still in Moscow on Wednesday morning; 2) Preobrazhensky traveled to see him in Berlin (for a meeting?). Interesting.

Well, all the best.

J. Stalin

Monday. Sochi.
