"Something seems to be wrong about my trying to make a contribution to ""Talk"" about Palmiro Togliatti. 
 Some miraculous hand wipes out whatever I try to write. I do not hesitate to try it again, the fifth time now. Maybe the reason is, that only fluent English is accepted and I have to confess, that my English is very poor. Be that as it may. 
 As I find, the phrase ""In exile during the 1930s..."" is hiding more than it reveals, because nothing is said about the place of the exile and Togliatti's occupation during the time of exile. 
 So, please, allow me to propose that one of the English speaking authors of the article add some words, giving the necessary information, i.e. exile in Moscow, performing the function of a member of the secretariat of the Executive Committe oh the Comintern from 1935 until 1943.
