VYATKA

To Shlikhter

I have spoken on the telephone with the Food Commissariat and they have agreed with me that it would be extremely important for you to remain in Vyatka at the present time; firstly, to assist and supervise the most energetic defence of Kotlas and the preparation of demolition materials, in case of need, for the complete destruction of the Kotlas-Vyatka railway. Secondly, and chiefly, for the most energetic food operations in connection with the successful suppression of the kulak revolts south of Vyatka, with the object of ruthlessly exterminating the kulaks, confiscating all their grain, and transporting it via Vologda and via Nizhni-Novgorod, and also for consolidating the organisation of the poor peasants.
