Lyd. Al. (and Krasin)
I am signing the telegram about oil, ships, etc., with pleasure.
But I donât agree to sign that about Mukhin.[1]
(1) Krasin writes that Mukhin concealed money from Stalin. This he had no right to do, even if âon the instructions of his (!!??) chiefsâ, for Stalin too is a chief, and a higher one, too, though not âhisâ.
(2) It is wrong formally and impermissible generally to decide this without asking Stalin (and Stalin is in Moscow!!).
Greetings,
Lenin
- â Krasin asked Lenin to sign a telegram to the Tsaritsyn Extraordinary Commission for them to set free N. Mukhin, an employee of the Chief Oil Committee, who had been arrested, and allow him to travel freely to Moscow. Krasin proposed sending a copy of the telegram to Stalin in Tsaritsyn.
