National Committee,
Communist League of America
Dear Comrades:
You have doubtless received the declaration signed by four organizations at the Paris conference. One of the conclusions of this declaration imposes upon us the duty to elaborate during the next two or three months a programmatic manifesto of the new International. My opinion on the declaration is given in my last letters.
Comrade F. Sternberg, a well-known writer on economic subjects and member of the SAP, proposes a certain conception of the economic part of the manifesto, a draft of which is attached hereto. It is not necessary to emphasize the importance of the work as a whole. The American comrades must, naturally, participate in the elaboration of the manifesto, especially in the part concerning the United States, its relation to other countries, to South America and British colonies, to Japan and China. For the present my initiative is of private nature, but in the next days or weeks the four organizations will surely create a technical secretariat. I hope that you will invite all the American comrades qualified for this work to present their drafts, suggestions and ideas as soon as possible.
Comradely yours,
L. Trotsky
