To:   THE EDITORIAL BOARD OF PRAVDA TRUDA

P.S. I have not received No.  5 of Pravda Truda . Thank
you very much for sending me Novaya Rabochaya Gazeta :
only No.  7 is missing, and also Nos.  7 and 9 of
Nash Put . [1]
Please send them.

It seems to me that yon are making a gigantic mistake in drifting unconsciously with the stream and not changing
the tone of the paper. Everything suggests that both the
tone and the content of the news section must he changed .
It is essential to achieve legality, ability to pass the censor.
This can and must be achieved. Otherwise yon are destroying, for no reason at all, the work you have undertaken.
Think this over more seriously.
