X CONGRESS OF THE RCP(b)
NOTE REGARDING MARCHENKO’S AMENDMENT TO THE RESOLUTION ON ANARCHIST AND SYNDICALIST TENDENCIES, MARCH 16
To speak on behalf of the Congress in this matter would be excessively prohibitive. I propose that we not adopt this amendment—certainly without depriving the Central Committee of its right to make recommendations and, if necessary, to centralize all such matters within the Central Committee’s collections—but to regard, on behalf of the Congress, the absolute prohibition against local authorities issuing their own collections as overly restrictive.
