Telephone Message to the SEC Presidium, September 8, 1921
Source: Lenin Collected Works, Progress Publishers, 1976, Moscow, Volume 45, pages 292b-293a
Very urgent
S.E.C. Presidium, copies to the Peopleâs Commissariat for Finance and the Peopleâs Commissariat for Workersâ
and Peasantsâ Inspection
and Engineer Graftio (home telephone 1â72â49. 22/3 Povarskaya St.)
According to Graftioâs report, the Volkhov construction site is provided with foodstuffs for September-December, but the work is at a standstill because of lack of banknotes. The Public Works Committee is issuing only 125 million for September, whereas, according to Graftio, the requirement is more than 1,000 million.
I propose that the Volkhov construction site should be immediately supplied with the necessary amount of banknotes to ensure the accelerated conduct of operations in accordance with the number of rations issued under the All-Russia CEC decisions of May 30 and November 5.
Send me your report of execution not later than September 10.
(Lenin)
Chairman, Council of Peopleâs Commissars
September 8, 1921
