Zinoviev
Concerning Zinoviev’s proposal to reprove Steklov for his tactless article “On Leftism”[1]—I think this should not be done just now.
It seems to me that Solts’s item in Pravda on this matter was sufficient. Steklov will undoubtedly draw the right conclusion from this item, so that the Politbureau’s intervention just now would be premature.
V. Ulyanov (Lenin)
Chairman, Council of People’s Commissars
[1] On Lenin’s manuscript there is this note by a secretary: “Talked with Comrade Rakosi: he promised to find out and give a written reply.” On September 9, 1921, I. S. Unschlicht, Deputy Chairman of the All-Russia Cheka, informed Lenin that in view of Adolphe Carm’s release, he was being allowed to leave the territory of the R.S.F.S.R., and his case had been quashed.
