More Urgent Needs for Fund Raising
La Vérité
Dear Comrades:
In the latest issue of La Vérité, I find unexpectedly an appeal "to collect funds needed to help Comrade Trotsky." I understand the feelings that guided the authors of this appeal. However, I permit myself to say to them that they committed the serious fault of not asking for my opinion. The financial difficulties I have as a result of the liquidation of Marxist literature in Germany and the crisis in book-selling in America are of a transient character. In any case, I am certain of overcoming them without burdening the comrades. There are more urgent needs for fund-raising by the proletarian press.
With my communist greetings,
Leon Trotsky
