Letter to Alexander Tsiurupa, March 8, 1921
Source: Lenin Collected Works, Progress Publishers, 1976, Moscow, Volume 45, pages 94c-95a.
Comrade Tsyurupa:
We shall probably call our commission tonight,[1] (we shall hardly have any time during the day, after the opening[2], although we shall try).
The question is pivoted on “turnover”, free economic exchange for the peasantry.
You have not gone into the question deeply enough, since you were arguing against Rakovsky (I had no time for a rejoinder). The whole point is to be able to promote commerce, exchange (both export abroad from the south and exchange with the factories). Otherwise, we shall collapse.

Think about this and find a formula to insert this.

2) Ask for these figures right away; how much grain we gave in January 1921 and in February (if there are no figures for the whole of February, then for one-third or two-thirds of it) 1921. How much imported, and how much altogether.
