602 TO N. N. KRESTINSKY Krestinsky. Urgent. (Enclose the Siberian telegram on the census and Popov’s comment.) I suggest collecting the votes of the Politbureau members today, by telephone, for a decision such as the following: the census in Siberia to be definitely carried out si- multaneously with Russia; moreover, in place of the dubious local people suspected of supporting the Kol- chak regime, workers to be called in from the famine- stricken gubernias of Russia. If they do not agree, the Politbureau is to be called to- morrow, 5.VI, in the morning. Less than 1,000 workers are needed. They can easily be transported and will be of great use.

MILYUTIN Comrade Vorovsky (State Publishers) and Comrade Milyutin (Supreme Economic Council) The Kirghiz comrades are asking for help in order to acquire a type foundry, a print-shop and paper. Will you please receive them and give them every assist- ance.

383 EXCHANGE OF NOTES WITH K. A. ALFEROV. JUNE 4, 1920 604 TO L. D. TROTSKY 395
1 Comrade Trotsky, The Commander - in - Chief must be informed and asked for his opinion. When you have received it, give me your conclusion at the meeting of the Council of Defence, or let us talk it over (if it does not end too late) by telephone. Lenin 2 There is some capriciousness here, I dare say. But the matter needs to be discussed urgently. And what extraor- dinary measures should be taken?

606 TO S. I. BOTIN 4/VI. 1920 Comrade Botin, You told Comrade Belenky that the experiments could be made on Friday (i.e., today). 3 9 7
A special military-po- litical circumstance has arisen, which may mean our losing many extra thousands of Red Army men within the next few days. It is therefore my absolute duty to request insistently that you hasten the experiment and carry it out today with- out fail, if there is the slightest possibility (all the manual work, such as regulating the engine, you should assign to others, not occupying yourself with trifles). Will you please answer me at once by the messenger, as fully and exactly as possible. I would not be hurrying you if an immediate political-strategic decision of great importance were not called for. Answer in detail ( 1 ) Can you speed things up to the maximum extent? (2) When will you carry out the first experiment and when (approximately) will you complete it? Greetings,

This is blatant lying and trickery designed for fools. They have given arms, they are giving coal and a fleet— and they make this statement through “Wise” (=Bullitt?). I advise: 1) Send a coded message to Krasin: “that sco- undrel Lloyd George is fooling you in the most vile and shameless manner, don’t believe a word, and fool him threefold”. 2) To Curzon: a derisive telegram (of course, when you had already given arms, he, not you, started an offensive, and when you had given coal, he, not you, set the ships in motion, and so on in that strain).

Report fulfilment to me twice weekly.

Moscow-Leningrad 387 TO A. M. HELLER. JUNE 18, 1920 611 TO THE FUEL DEPARTMENT OF THE MOSCOW SOVIET 16. VI. 1920 Dear Comrades, I enclose herewith the decision of the Council of Labour and Defence of 11.VI, 399
and again specially ask you to give this question the most serious attention. The Moscow population can and should be mobilised to a man to haul out of the forests by hand a sufficient quant- ity of firewood (say, one cubic metre per adult man in 3 months—the experts can figure it out more exactly; I mention a figure as an example) to stations on the railways and narrow-gauge lines. Unless heroic measures are taken, I shall personally get a decision put through the Council of Defence and the C.C. not only for the arrest of all the persons responsible but for their execution. Inactivity and negligence cannot be tolerated. With communist greetings, Lenin First published on September 2 6 , Printed from the original 1 9 4 2 , in Pravda No. 2 6 9 612 TO A. M. HELLER 400

Make a list of the most important documents and a trans- lation of those that are extremely important, showing the deviation of the reformists (especially Turati and Co.) from the discipline and decisions.

Orders, with delivery within 20 days, for twine, machi- nery, technical equipment, not later than three months— no less than 200 locomotives with tank-cars, trucks, etc. Prin- cipal points of agreement: the Corporation, on orders from the agent, undertakes in exchange for raw materials to supply from abroad miscellaneous commodities, materials, machinery, instruments, medicaments, etc., excepting munitions; perfu- mery and luxury goods, with delivery at one of the Black Sea ports, as indicated by the agent. Second, for the supply of goods the agent pays the Corporation in raw materials.... . . . Besides the sums indicated in point 2, the agent pays the Corporation in raw materials also a commission amounting to ten per cent of the value of the goods supplied.

FROM MARX TO MAO
NOT FOR
COMMERCIAL DISTRIBUTION 615 TO A. N. MEREZHIN 403
Comrade Merezhin I think an additional point should be formulated (on the basis of the information of Rafes and others) roughly as follows:
The experience of proletarian dictatorship in the Ukraine, especially in those parts of it where there is a mixed pop- ulation, and also in Byelorussia (and & ? &? Hungary?), has shown that national strife not only in the form of po- groms, of which not even the most democratic bourgeois republic is free, but also in the form of petty but all-per- vading squabbling is practically disappearing. The reasons for this: 1) the interest, attention, and all the intellectual powers of the workers and working peasants are wholly engrossed in the great struggle with the bourgeoisie, a struggle that unites the working people of all nations; 2) the dictatorship of the proletariat suppresses the “freedom” of action of the bourgeoisie, petty bourgeoisie and bour- geois intelligentsia, which freedom signifies the use of their forces, influence and knowledge by the bourgeoisie to in- flame the class struggle. Cannot 2 or more concrete facts be added?

Here Comrade Karakhan is to blame. He does not know how things should be done in the Soviet Republic: 1) take an excerpt from the minutes of the Politbureau, 2) on the basis of this, take a decision of the Narrow Council (over my signature) or of the appropriate Peo- ple’s Commissar, * At the top of the document Lenin wrote: “Remind me there should be a report on fulfilment from the Commissariat for Agricul- ture.” 404

3) for non-fulfilment, complain to me formally after ?4 hours, 4) repeat this many times over. Who does not know this, is naïve. Lenin 24/VI.

Comrade Zinoviev, Chairman of the Petrograd Executive Committee The famous physiologist, Pavlov, asks to be allowed to go abroad in view of his straitened circumstances. To have Pavlov leave the country is hardly advisable, since he has previously made statements to the effect that, being a truthful man, he could not, in the event of the subject being brought up in conversations, avoid expressing himself against Soviet power and communism in Russia. On the other hand, this scientist is such a great cultural asset that his forcible detention in Russia in conditions of material insecurity is unthinkable. In view of this it would be desirable, by way of escep- tion, to allow him a special ration and in general to en- sure more or less comfortable circumstances for him ex- clusively. I have heard that in the Petrograd rest homes life is very well ordered for those living there. Something of the kind could be done for Professor Pavlov at his apartment Comrade Lunacharsky will make the appropriate proposal to Comrade Badayev. I ask you to support him in this respect. 407
