EJGORN[i], ChEN's[ii] brother-in-law, the other day informed
ECHO [EKh0J[iii] of the following: ChEN had told him that he works for

ECHO that this sort of chatter could LD% lead to unpleasantness with]
the FELLOW -COUNTRYMEN [L;EistLYala][ v , as Ch. s new wife is a FELLOW -
COUNTRYWOMAN and other relations are FELLOW-COUNTRYMEN. ) himself
is one of the leading loca FELLOW-COUNTRYMEN, occupies an official
post [with][a] "Newspaper Guild" (a newspapermen's society).
By post no. 2 for 1944 we advised that Ch. is not suitable
for our work and proposed ptAting him into cold storage[Z,AKONSERVIROVRI'l].
While awaiting your reply weceased to employ Ch. (..de used to meet once
a month. We consider that at the next meeting STUKACh[vii) should
propose to Ch. writing a detailed report, regarding [2 groups unrecovered]
contact of his
119 groups unrecoverable]
works for us). We will once more categorically call on Ch. to put an
end to .his criminal chatter about liaison with us and we will put him
into cold storage under the pretext of STUKACh's departure: We will
continue studying his conduct through ECHO. Expedite instructions.
