Letter to Lev Kamenev, August 25, 1912
Published: First published in 1904 in Collected Works, Fifth (Russian) Ed., Vol. 48. Sent from Cracow to Paris. Printed from the original.

Dear L. B.,
I received today from Trotsky an invitation to âtheirâ conference (on August 25).[1]
So they have organised it after all!
We, of course, are not going.
We want to have the Central Organ two-thirds ready, so as to issue a reply ...[2] as soon as their announcement comes out.
We shall begin sending in copy to the CO tomorrow.
See to it that the material is set up quickly and proofs corrected properly.
Why doesnât Antonov (Britman) answer me? Is he in Paris? In good health?
Write when you propose to set out for Chemnitz. A paper should be prepared for the Germans in advance.
Why do you return the letters ... and donât give us an answer about the Pannekoek article....
Yours,
Lenin
