SPEECH ON THE CREDENTIALS COMMITTEE REPORT ON THE KAZAN COMMITTEE’S REPRESENTATION{1}

APRIL 22 (MAY 5)

L e n i n makes a reference to the minutes of the Second Congress showing that the Kazan Committee was listed as one of the organisations whose powers required formal confirmation. Since no formal confirmation has been forth coming, there is no ground to rescind the resolution already taken by the Congress. The Kazan representative must remain at the Congress with voice only, while the committee; according to the Credentials Committee’s proposal, should seek formal confirmation right away.

Notes

{1} At the eighteenth sitting of the Congress on April 22 (May 5), the question of the Kazan Committee’s representation came up once again with the arrival of its delegate I. A. Sammer (Savich). The Credentials Committee proposed that the Congress “should abide by its earlier decision and admit the Kazan Committee delegate with voice but no vote” (see Tray syezd R.S.D.R.P., p. 314).

Sammer asked the Congress to allow his committee a vote. After a debate, the Congress rejected a resolution motioned by B. V. Avilov (Tigrov) on granting a vote to the Kazan Committee and confirmed the Credentials Committee’s resolution. p. 160
