 | | In the archive of party chairman Ernst Christiansen, a unique set of letters from the Swedish communist Oskar Samuelson, the Comintern’s Scandinavian treasurer at the time, is preserved; he distributed large sums to both the USA and to the European parties. |
 | | One of the preserved letters is partially written in a number code, in which each letter consists of two figures, such as 23/1. |
 | | While the details we have for later years are limited for individual parties like the DKP, through Loupan and Lorrain we can trace the development of the total sum as follows: 1958, 6.8 million dollars, 1959, 9 million; 1960, 9,05 million; 1961, 10.5 million; 1962, 11.5 million; 1963, 14.65 million; 1964, 15.75 million dollars. |
