Initial paper of Gel'fand on Generalized Random Processes

The theory of generalized stochastic processes was introduced independently in the 50's by Ito* and Gel'fand in a short paper. The latter then developed his theory more extensively in the fourth tome of his work on Generalized functions**.

I am looking for the initial short paper of Gel'fand, in Russian, with the following reference:

I. M. Gelfand,Generalized random processes, Doklady Akademii Nauk SSSR100 (1955), no. 5, 853–856, in Russian.

I couln't find it on the web. According to WorldCat, it is in the MIT, too far for me. Does anybody have another solution to obtain this historical paper?

*K. Itô, Stationary random distributions, Kyoto Journal of Mathematics 28 (1954), no. 3, 209–223.

**I. M. Gelfand and N. Ya. Vilenkin, Generalized functions. Vol. 4. Applications of harmonic analysis, Academic press, New York, USA, 1964.
