...Yesterday, the telegram I received from our representative only states on this matter: "unification is entrusted to the executive committee (executive)".

Thus, the question is not clear 267.

Just in case - with the extremely important caveat that this should not be rushed into print - I propose the following text for an editorial statement (if the "storm" in the dirty glass of Mr. Burenin-Gamma's newspaper has already been taken up).

The decision of the International Socialist Bureau to convene a conference of SDs in Russia - naturally, those working in Russia, and not the ghostly ones abroad - fully satisfies us. It is precisely at such a conference that the betrayal of the party by the liquidators and Burenin's methods of subjects like Gamma, from whom it is high time to cleanse social democracy, will be most clearly exposed.

Tomorrow (or at the latest the day after tomorrow) I will definitely receive a detailed written report from London. Then I will write to you immediately, and if necessary not to print
the message being sent now (i.e., placed on the previous, third, page*), then I will telegraph: hold it back. This word, therefore, means do not print the third page.
