Furthermore, you request in your letter to inform you "which other newspapers we still need to send." The list was sent to you in my previous letter, and I can only repeat the request to notify me by telegram: "Newspapers subscribed"; without this there will be a break in sending articles.

Regarding Sinclair's novel we are making inquiries to Leipzig. This is after all a translation from English. Or do you wish to translate from the German translation?

At your service, V. Ulyanov

P. S. In particular, on the agrarian question current publications are especially necessary — government and zemstvo editions. Print without fail in the nearest issue that the newspaper urgently requests that all such publications be sent to it, undertaking to print their list and reviews of the most important of them.

Vl. Ulijanow. Zwierzyniec. L. 218. Oesterreich.

Krakau.

P. S. It is also extremely necessary to have the newspaper "Nevskii Golos" 83 (we do not have No. 4 and subsequent issues) and all trade union publications. Without this it is impossible to establish the desired section on the struggle of labor against capital.

P. P. S. I cannot fail to call attention to the extremely unpleasant misprints in the articles.

I have just received (not from the newspaper office and in general not from St. Petersburg) No. 13 of the "Nevskaya Zvezda." In the article "On an Illiberal Skeptic"* instead of "utilize" it is printed "profess"!!

Meanwhile, the handwriting of the author of this article is not at all difficult to read. Moreover, the typesetters and proofreader cannot but be well acquainted with this handwriting. Finally, the proofreader should have easily noticed the error from the sense of the text.

It is desirable to pay attention to ensuring that there are fewer such misprints.

* See V. I. Lenin. "Capitalism and 'Parliament'" (Collected Works, 5th ed., vol. 21, pp. 366-368). Ed.

No. 43 of "Pravda" has just been received in 5 copies, as promised. But I do not have Nos. 41 and 42. I request that they also be sent in five copies each.
