Two page Mussolini letter, dated 16th January 1926, some fading, and occasional ink smudges, translation as follows: The Head of the Government Dear Farinacci, I hope to convince you at this time that the return of the support of the popular mass and of any group like the Aventines is a question of the moment, of Parliament, of the Party and above all a question that concerns Mussolini.

When the Head of the Government before and after the date of 3 January 1925, is interested directly in so called moral question" and has made a proposal on this matter or any other matter - the Camera Fascista - to begin with the Deputy who is Secretary of the Party - votes on it - otherwise it shows itself to be undisciplined. You surely did not wish to commit an act of in-discipline, but the fact in itself - remains.

Most cordially yours ussolini - from Chigi Palace - 16 January 1926
