Comrade Krestinsky,
It is necessary to keep to the law.
By law the final decision is the decision of the Orgbureau, which has already rejected the protest of the Ukrainian Central Committee.
This decision of the Orgbureau Yakovlev (and the Ukrainian C.C.) is obliged to fulfil at once.[1]
I agree to an opinion poll without recognising the right of the poll to hold up the decision, for only the plenum has that right, and I demand the right of agitation.
[1] It has not been possible to establish what decision of the Organising Bureau of the C.C., R.C.P.(B.) this refers to.
