RESOLUTION ON A TELEGRAM
FROM THE TULA TRADE UNION OF ART WORKERS
AND A NOTE ON M. P. TOMSKY'S REPLY

[June 23, 1919]
To Melnichansky or Tomsky: what have you done?¹

[Later than June 23, 1919]
What is the matter? I understood nothing!²

¹ The resolution was written by V. I. Lenin on a telegram from the Tula Trade Union of Art Workers to the Council of Defence, dated June 23, 1919, concerning the impossibility of calling up 100 members of the union for the Red Army because of its small membership.
G. N. Melnichansky was a member of the Workers' and Peasants' Defence Council from the All-Russia Central Council of Trade Unions.
² The note was written by V. I. Lenin on the reply of M. P. Tomsky, Chairman of the Presidium of the All-Russia Central Council of Trade Unions, who reported that the quota had been fixed with due account of all art workers of the Tula Gubernia, and not only of the Tula department.
