Dear Comrades

We have read with much appreciation the excellent editorial in *The Militant* on the subject of our imprisoned Comrades Raptis and Santen. And though none of us has seen the text of the letter, one comrade who did assures us that your protest to the Dutch Minister of Justice was a fine one: strong in tone and solid in content.

We wish to send you our sincere comradely thanks for these fraternal actions of yours on behalf of our victimized comrades, and to express the hope that further collaboration on this case will be possible.

With best Bolshevik-Leninist greetings,

THE INTERNATIONAL SECRETARIAT OF THE FOURTH INTERNATIONAL

P.F.

National Committee, Socialist Workers Party, 116 University Place, New York City
