Comrade Bonch-Bruevich (Copy to Comrade Kamenev)

I am very glad that you have not left the sovkhoz, and I hope that you will bring your economic work to completion for the entire district. Regarding your publishing enterprises, I am inclined toward considerable skepticism. In particular, concerning my works, I request that you inquire of Comrade Kamenev, as I am not in a position to take up this question at present.210
