(Congress Minutes, p. 78.)
4) The count of “21” refers to the number of items comprising the detailed agenda.
Vladimir Ilyich, speaking in the debate on the agenda and objecting to the division of issues into distinct sections, remarked: “At Congresses of the German Social Democratic Party, the agenda typically encompasses 5–6 items; at our Second Congress, the number of items reached as high as 25”… and at the Third Congress, “we will have 21 items on the agenda. For such an agenda, we will need two full months.” (Congress Minutes, pp. 79–80.)
