120. To V. D. BONCH-BRUYEVICH

Written July 31, 1905, in Geneva and mailed to a local address · First published in 1931 in Lenin Miscellany XVI. Printed from the original. · page 161

Dear Vl. Dm.,

I am sending you the “paper”.^[1]

Your appointment to the Economic Commission turned out to be inexpedient for the time being: it would not have lessened but rather aggravated the friction.

If need be always get in touch with me. I do not think there is any reason to fear friction. But of course one must be tactful and cautious whatever turn things may take.

I hear there is no paper for the next issue!

Greetings to V. M. Best regards,
Yours,
Lenin
