Telegram to Alexander Shumsky, March 24, 1920

In code
Shumsky
Kharkov
Copy to the new Central Committee of the C.P.U.
Copy to Rakovsky
In confirmation of the telephone message which Lenin sent to Rakovsky last night, we inform you that, in view of the anomalous situation created by the fact that 105 delegates refused (while 8 abstained) to take part in the elections to the CC and protested against these elections as being unlawful, the Politbureau of the CC, RCP has resolved to set up a temporary body pending the settlement of this conflict. This temporary Central Committee should include Shumsky, a former Borotbist, now a Party member, who took no part in the factional struggle at the Ukrainian conference, along with 2 members of the new CC and 2 members of the old.
On behalf of the Politbureau,
Lenin
