Letter to the Central Committee of the RSDLP, September 17, 1909
Published: First published in 1933 in Lenin Miscellany XXV. Printed from the original.
Source: Lenin Collected Works, Progress Publishers, 1977, Moscow, Volume 43, pages 219b-220a.
In view of the circulation among Social-Democratic groups abroad of a printed leaflet signed âSashaâ (the leaflet is enclosed) containing charges against the Editorial Board of Proletary,[1] and, further, in view of the fact that some of the opponents of Proletary from among both the Bolsheviks âremovedâ after the recent conference and the Mensheviks are using this leaflet to involve the groups in a discussion of a âsensational affairâ which in no way comes within the competence of any local Party groups or is subject to examination by them, the Editorial Board of Proletary requests the CC of the RSDLP to investigate the charges made by âSashaâ, to examine the substance of these charges and to hand down an official decision of the Partyâs highest body.
- â This letter was written in connection with the circulation abroad by some otzovists of a leaflet alleging that the Bolshevik Centre had declined to render assistance to persons suspected of being involved in an expropriation in the Urals.
In the Supplement to Proletary No. 47â48 the editors refuted the allegation and announced that the Editorial Board of Proletary had asked the CC, RSDLP, to investigate the matter.
