Comrade Myasnikov:
I read your article, which Bukharin passed on to me, only today, and very cursorily.
I should like to have a talk with you. I hope to be in Moscow one of these days and find time for a half-hour talk with you.
The beginning of your article is good and business-like.
But there are some obvious errors in your conclusions.
Perhaps there is some misunderstanding: it looks as if you hare failed to say in the article what you had told N. I. Bukharin. What sort of âfreedom of the pressâ do you want? Under the law? For workers tooâS.R.s and Mensheviks? Just now? The article does not make it clear.[1]
Drop me a line.
With communist greetings,
Lenin
