Copy to Strievsky

Volkov, representative of Petrosoyuz,[1] and Misyursky, a delegate from the conference of workers’ co-operatives of the Northern Region, declare that there was not and could not be any shadow of assistance to counter-revolutionaries in paying salaries and wages to office staff and workers one month in advance. They promise to dispel the misunderstanding that has arisen, and express a desire to work with complete loyalty on the basis of the new decree.[2] Khinchuk confirms their assurances.

Please go into the matter closely and give the co– operators an opportunity to work.
