This business of a concession granted to Rutgers and a group of American workers, as Martens informs me, is in a very bad state. This requires a check-up and serious attention. It is an exceptional concession granted by us to American workers by special permission of the Politbureau.

The whole undertaking may go to pieces without special support and check-up.

Please ask Martens for information and strictly check up on the whole course of this business.
