Dear Radek,
We shall discuss the money question with Grigory. We’re hard up just now!
But the most important thing is: why are you silent about our (your final) draft resolution[2]? I must have it at once (and our statement on the voting for the manifesto)!
You should have a copy! Why don’t you send it to me?
Or Grimm? Can he really be refusing to let you make a copy? Please reply.
Grimm’s “loyalty” is only so much talk. He has deliberately failed to mention Borchardt—it’s a disgrace.[3]
Regards,
Yours,
Lenin
