Transcription:

Weather report for 23rd Apr. 1917.

No blue anywhere!!!!
Nothing underlined in black! –
If you think I am lying, please
look at the picture, but please be careful
about showing it around! – As a psychologist
you must identify the greed
with which the Russian is grabbing
the letter from us! – I
have printed the copy myself
from the original film!
Kind regards to your wife
Yours,
Ant.[on] Peschka.
