V. I. LENIN — TO V. M. KASPAROV
11 BERLIN.
[After February 11, 1911. Cracow].¹

Dear Comrade! Your silence amazes and depresses me extremely. It is impossible to work without the *Vorwärts*.

For the last 3–4 years I have always received the *Vorwärts* free of charge, right up to February 1911.² Suddenly... they stopped!!

What is the matter? I do not write myself, for I am afraid of running into a rude answer (if this is a liquidator intrigue).

But perhaps it is simply a mistake?

I earnestly ask you to go to the dispatch department (by no means to the editorial office), explain the matter, and answer me at once. Nadya wrote to you about this long ago, — but there is still no answer. What is the matter? Are you ill? Reply!

Yours, Lenin

I enclose the printed address for the *Vorwärts*.

¹ Dating basis: The letter from N. Krupskaya to which Lenin refers was written on February 11, 1914 (Institute of Lenin Archives, 27030).
² Lenin received the newspaper *Vorwärts* in exchange for Bolshevik publications.
