My own standpoint is made clear by the following letter to Tisza.
(_Not dated._) DEAR FRIEND,--I hear that you do not approve of the delegation of Socialists for Stockholm.

To begin with, it is not a delegation.
The men came to me of their own accord and applied for permission to travel, which I granted.

Adler, Ellenbogen and Seitz were there, Renner as well.

The two first are capable men, and I value them in spite of the differences that exist between us.

The two last are not well known to me.
