Message of Greetings to the Conference of Representatives of Women's Departments of the Peoples of Soviet Regions and Republics in the East

---

I deeply regret that I am unable to attend your conference because of the pressure of work. Please accept my heartfelt greetings and best wishes of success, especially in preparing for the forthcoming First All-Russia NonParty Congress of Women of the East, which, correctly prepared and conducted, must greatly help the cause of awakening the women of the East and uniting them organisationally.
