What should have been written is: âMr. Koltsov, you are a blackmailer, like Gamma is. I am not answering you.â I am angry, almost furious at the âconversationâ with Koltsov!! Fancy calling such a scoundrel âdear comradeâ. What is this? What do you call it??[1]
- â The reference is to the article by M. Chernomazov (Firm), âAn Answer to D. Koltsovâ, published in Za Pravdu No. 42, November 23, 1913. The article was in response to âAn Open Letter to M. Finnâ by the Menshevik Koltsov (B. Ginsburg) published in Novaya Rabochaya Gazeta No. 87, November 20, 1913. Koltsov, who took part in the smear campaign against the Bolsheviks in connection with the Dansky affair (see Note 298), accused Chernomazov of lying and slander because the latter declared that Koltsov him self, while serving in the Council of the Oil Industrialistsâ Congress in Baku, had acted in a similar role as Dansky, who was accused of political double-dealing by Novaya Rabochaya Gazeta. In his âAn Answer to D. Koltsovâ, beginning with the address âDear Comradeâ, Chernomazov stated that he had read âAn Open Letter to M. Firinâ with âa feeling of deep painâ and upheld his position in a polemic with Koltsov.
