Dear Comrade Huysmans,
Please forgive me the delay in replying. A number of circumstances prevented me from writing to you earlier.
The translation of the Programme of the Russian Social-Democratic Labour Party which you sent me is, in my opinion, far from perfect. However, my own knowledge of French is so inadequate that I cannot venture to under take to correct the translation. Comrade Charles Rappoport (of the journal Le Socialisme[1]) has kindly agreed to do this work. He will edit the translation and I hope to be able to send it to you soon.
As regards the meeting of the International Socialist Bureau, I vote for November.
My new address: Mr. Wl. Oulianoff
4. Rue Marie Rose. 4.
Paris (XIV).
Accept, dear comrade, my most friendly greetings.
N. Lenin
[1] Le Socialisme—a journal put out in Paris from 1907 to June 1914. Its publisher and editor was the French Socialist Jules Guesde.
