1. TO THE COMMISSION FOR VERIFYING THE COMPOSITION OF THE CONGRESS

At the meeting of the O.C. on April 24, 1905, I forgot to submit a proposal to invite Comrade Arnatsky (real (NB) surname), a member of the Kazan Committee, to the Congress with a consultative vote.{47} I request the Commission to consider this proposal.

Comrade Arnatsky is abroad, in France, and has expressed to me his consent to come to the Congress at his own expense. He is leaving for Russia very soon and could quickly report to his committee on the Congress. Despite all efforts, the Organising Committee has been unable to obtain a reply from Kazan in connection with the Kazan Committee. There is therefore now almost no hope of the Kazan Committee participating in the Congress. Our attempts from here abroad to get in touch with Kazan have also failed; there has been no reply to our letters. Arnatsky, too, has been unable to establish contact with Kazan from here. Since it is impossible to have a delegate from the Kazan Committee at the Congress, should not Comrade Arnatsky, as a member of the Committee, be invited with a consultative vote?

2. TO THE CREDENTIALS COMMISSION

At the O.C. meeting I communicated a written request from Comrade Filatov (real surname) for permission to attend the Congress with a consultative vote. Comrade Filatov is the author of articles in Vperyod on insurrection—V. S. He submitted to the Congress a letter and a pamphlet-report: “Application of Tactics and Fortification to a People’s Insurrection” (in a suitcase left in Boulogne). Regarding Comrade Filatov, I request that Comrades Belsky and Voinov, who worked with him in Paris, be asked.{48}
