Comrade Smirnov
or Petrovsky, People’s Commissar for Internal Affairs,
and Comrade Gukovsky, People’s Commissar for Finance
I strongly recommend the bearer, Comrade Semyon Ivanovich Lebedev, Chairman of the Temnikov Soviet, Tambov Gubernia.
He asks for a loan of 1 1/2 million. From his account it is evident that affairs in the uyezd are exemplary. A most instructive example of a model uyezd where the kulaks have in actual fact been ousted from all the Soviets. In my opinion, such an uyezd should be given priority assistance.
