Written on a memo to the RCP(b) Central Committee from Deputy People’s Commissar for Food N. P. Bryukhanov and Deputy People’s Commissar for Foreign Trade A. M. Lezhava, reporting the possibility of purchasing 5 million poods of wheat in North-Eastern Persia, and requesting the allocation of 4 million silver rubles for that purpose. On July 6, 1921, this was approved by the Politbureau.

On July 18, the Narrow CPC appropriated 4 million rubles for the People’s Commissariat for Foreign Trade.

I propose that this be approved by telephone with this addition: an assignment to buy the greatest possible quantities of wheat and rice.

5/VII.
