Written late in May 1921 · First published in 1932 in Lenin Miscellany XX. Printed from the original. · page 503

Comrade Litkens,

So let us agree on the question of the dictionary as follows:

(1) Approximately within a month (in the absence of Pokrovsky) adopt a formal decision and appoint a responsible person or persons.

(2) On the basis of this decision draw up a plan of work, indicating not only the persons responsible but also the expenditure and rations required.

The plan should provide for the work to begin in August or September.

Lenin
