Lenin

405

To:   G. Y. ZINOVIEV

I am sending you the notebook: Inessa asks that it be returned
when copied. [1]

I am sending Wijnkoop’s letter. Return it immediately (if
useful, show it to Yuri). I shall snatch at this “little kernel”
of a Left International with both hands. We must work as hard as we can to get closer together with them. I am hurrying Radek to translate
the Berne resolutions. [2]

I am sending the beginning of the pamphlet ( in the rough ) so
that we can discuss how to continue the job and turn out a
“ whole ” piece by two authors (show it, if useful , to
Yuri; perhaps they will give some money for such a thing? If not,
it’s not worth while showing the rough copy). [3]

Send your comments on a separate sheet.

Return immediately .

I think that, when edited, it may turn out a popular and important
(both for Russia and for Europe) body of arguments and materials.

Regards, Lenin

Let Zina make some more copies of the report on the
Vorkonferenz. [4] It has to be circulated!!
