To
Comrade Stalin and Comrade Kamenev

I ask you to look through this brief information from Sokolnikov, which he is giving me
in reply to my inquiry of yesterday. First, the information is incomplete; I have asked for additional data.* Second, if it is correct, it follows that Novitsky gave us figures
that are directly incorrect. It is necessary to get at the whole truth on this matter and, if it is confirmed that Novitsky gave incorrect figures, to raise in the Political Bureau the question of prosecuting him.

February 4, 1922. Lenin
