It’s clear that the laps have not yielded an inch. I have written An—der[1] that I am prepared to make concessions (1) in regard to 7 (7 and not 6); (2) 15%; (3) place of publication, if we agree on the rest, that is (1) the Editorial Board of the CO co-opts both 6th and 7th (otherwise an obvious swindle; without a majority here on the Editorial Board it is no use starting); (2) new name for the collection; (3) agreement for I collection.

What is crossed out must stay out: neither 2 nor 3 are to be given the right to decide on a discussion article by a contributor. I insist on this emphatically.

I would ask A. to add a § on transport and so on.

But apparently we won’t get anywhere with this kulak riffraff.

Salut, Lenin
