18. VI. 1920

Comrade Geller!

I am sending you all the materials (that I have).

Compile an exact inventory of them immediately.  
I will obtain “Avanti!” and send it.

Compile a list of the most important and a translation of the arch-important documents, proving the deviation of the reformists (and Turati and Co. in particular) from discipline and decisions.  
(With reference to Serrati, “Comunismo” No. 10, 15–29. II. 1920, p. 693:  
“Such a work of purging—of ‘purification’—wrote Francesco Misiano in the same ‘Soviet’—can truly be  

opportune and useful, especially if it concerns those who resolutely oppose propaganda for the realization of the principles set down in Bologna 239 as the goal of our movement”*.)  
This is precisely what must be found by name and exactly.

Yours, Lenin
