Dear Comrade, We are leaving until October 1st for P o r o n i n (Galizien, address: Herrn Ulianow), 4-6 hours from Cracow on the “Zakopane” line. Write to the new address.

Thank you for the leaflet of your Central Committee you sent me. 205 Discuss it as soon as possible and, after a decision, let me know whether you wish, for the purpose of generalising agitation before the congress, to issue a platform of the Latvian Bolsheviks (or Party men, or anti-liquidators).

In my opinion, it would be advisable. If there is no money, it can be mimeographed.

In the platform, I think, special emphasis should be laid on three points:

(1) The liquidators’ renunciation of revolutionary tactics. Their appraisal of the moment is (covertly) liberal. Explain this.

(2) About the liquidators: reprint (or quote in detail the leading article of No. 101 of *Luch*) and tell the Latvian workers the truth.

(3) The national question. The separatism and federalism of the Bundists, who have “bought” the liquidators. The harm of cultural-national autonomy.

Would it not be better for your group to come forward also with a draft resolution on these questions? Or would it be better to write a platform? Which is more convenient for agitation before the congress and when voting for candidates to the congress delegates?

Write your opinion (and that of your friends). If a resolution or platform is needed, we would help to write it. What is the time-limit? When is the congress? 206

I shake your hand. Yours, Lenin
