Report on the formation of a commission for the distribution and utilisation of loaders, the names of the members of the commission and of the board of the loaders’ trade union.

Inform them, in accordance with the decision of the Defence Council, that they are personally responsible for the proper and systematic execution of unloading work and for enlisting the necessary number of workers. Any steps on the part of the loaders aimed at preventing outsiders from taking part in the unloading work will be regarded as a crime and the guilty will be liable to penalties ranging from a fine of one week’s earnings to deprivation of liberty for a term of one year.

Lenin
