The Matin publishes a letter written by Lenin to a friend, admitting the failure of the Communist experiment in Russia. The letter says: "We committed a grave error in attaching such importance to the classes," and continues by admitting the falsity of the Bolshevik hypotheses Lenin laments the vvorthlessness of his entourage, and declares that the strength of the Bolshevik Party is diminishing daily. The letter concludes: "I have long recognised the imminence of a compromise, and I have intimated to Krassin and other Bolshevik agents the necessity of, entering int6 confidential relations to that end with Russian Socialist emigres.,"
