Dear K., I have received your postcard and am hastening to reply. Wait a little: we shall let you know what can and should be done in regard to what you (and we) desire. 7

Do not forget, by the way, that legality here is now of a special kind: have you spoken about this with friends from Lausanne? Be sure to do so.

We are staying in Berne. Address: Donnerbuhlweg 11a. Uljanow.

As for the lecture, I do not know yet. We shall have to think it over and consult in greater detail.

How many people could be counted on in your place? 8

I press your hand. Greetings from all.

Yours, Lenin

P.S. La critique* and my anticritique** might perhaps better form the subject of a talk? Still, a couple of words: one cannot formalistically defend the despicable chauvinism of the Germans. There were bad resolutions, there were not bad ones, there were

*—criticism. Ed.
**—anticriticism. Ed.

statements of both kinds. But there is a limit to everything! And it has been exceeded. One cannot tolerate it, one cannot resort to diplomacy, one must rise against the shameful chauvinism with all one's might!!
