Dear Comrade Tsyurupa:

The decision of the Plenum is the outcome of the long-standing and protracted dissatisfaction with Svidersky. 46

The statement of the workers and, mainly, its support by the trade unions, was the last straw.

Personally, I could not but recognise the workers’ desire as correct and the satisfaction of their desire as politically absolutely necessary.

I realise that this is painful for you. But the political interest (as also the Party decision) absolutely demands submission. You can make excellent use of Svidersky even if he is not a member of the Board. We must get down to the task of promoting workers; I realise that, overwhelmed with work as you are, you could not devote all your attention to the question of promoting workers. I realise that, what with all sorts of business and your illness, you could not even keep a close watch on the Party-political side.

What is there surprising about that?

You must not be nervous. You must get over the painful part. You must submit to the decision of the C.C. and carry it out.

I cannot come: the meeting is in progress.

Yours,
Lenin
