To Svidersky (or Tsyurupa): You must seize at it with both hands. Send the food army there + food supply workers.
Start an agitation among the starving workers: to the Belaya for 5 million poods. Reply what you are doing.[1]
Lenin
- â On June 23, 1919, Lenin received a telegram from the River Transport Administration Committee, reporting the existence of large stocks of grain on the Belaya River and the need to expedite its dispatch.
In reply to Leninâs inquiry, Svidersky reported that, in order to expedite grain procurements on the Belaya River and in Ufa Gubernia in general, M. I. Frumkin, a member of the Board of the Peopleâs Commissariat for Food, had gone there from Samara, and that measures would be taken to send food army men to the Belaya.
