Dear L. B.,
...*** I am surprised that I have not received a single letter from you. We must keep in touch more regularly, and you in particular must write more often. “Paris will go to seed,” everyone said. That is now your responsibility, i.e., you must prevent this. Get the people together at least once a week, have talks, organise, visit Alexei every day and through him keep the whole group keyed up. You must not “abandon your own people” to their fate. It is not right to disorganise the main (so far) centre. Remember, it is your responsibility!! Call together the KZO, infuse energy into it: I was in Leipzig and heard nothing but complaints about the KZO, that it (unlike the CBFG****) does nothing. And it is expected to issue leaflets (all the Paris ones), bulletins, letters... Get this going...

I firmly shake your hand.

Yours,
Lenin
