Tov. Krylenko! Please help the submitter, Mr. Goltsman, to make all inquiries in Petersburg, Moscow, etc. about the data of the security service concerning Taratuta (Victor).

Your Lenin.

Fond 2, op. 1, d. 24305 - autograph.

July 16, 1918. V.I.Lenin talked with A.Z.Goltsman about V.K.Taratut, allegedly involved in cooperation with the security agencies before the revolution. In 1910 the commission of the Foreign Bureau of the Central Committee of the RSDLP after a long inspection declared his political honesty (see doc. 26). Taratuta returned from exile in 1919 and worked in the institutions of the Supreme Council of National Economy.
