4. VI. 1919. In cipher  
Petrograd, Smolny, to Stalin  

I would consider it necessary to let Natsarenus go to the Ukraine, where the need for workers is immense and you have a surplus. Then I ask you to go to the Western Front, which is terribly weakened in regard to commissars. It is absolutely necessary to support the whole front as a whole. Would you not find it useful to meet with Smilga for this purpose.

I received the materials with your letter, have begun to sort them out.

Lenin
