Comrade Sereda! I very much regret that you did not call. You were wrong to listen to the doctors who were “over-zealous”. 175

Why is the work in Yelets Uyezd not going ahead? This worries me greatly, and even more so your “evasion” of this question. It is obviously not going ahead. Out of 19 volosts with Committees of the Poor, not a single clear, exact report!

Not a single one .*, how many wagons, for what periods?!!

Not a single volost (and there should be 19) has been supplied with 3-5 intelligent workers from Petrograd (with 15-50 assistants from Moscow). There are no data anywhere to show that work is in full swing!

What is the matter? I earnestly request an answer. Appoint correspondents for me in each volost, give them this letter of mine, and let them all reply to me.

Greetings! Yours, Lenin
