Mao Zedong: I am currently reviewing my works which were published in various local publishing houses and which contain a number of errors and misrepresentations. I plan to complete this review by spring of 1950. However, I would like to receive help from Soviet comrades: first of all, to work on the texts with Russian translators and, secondly, to receive help in editing the Chinese original.
