TELEGRAM TO KARL RADEK

Please dispatch in code

Smilga for Radek

We shall take your considerations into account. Since you are going to see Dzerzhinsky, please insist on ruthless
crushing of the landowners and kulaks as quickly and energetically as possible, as also on real help for the peasants by giving them land and forests of the Polish gentry.
Report in more detail, check locally.

Lenin
