TELEGRAM TO M. V. FRUNZE

25.  VII. 1919

Frunze
Revolutionary Military Council, Eastern Front

Our failures and the delays south of Buzuluk, at Uralsk
and at Tsaryov strike me as very alarming. Please give the matter greatest attention and inform me more precisely.
The restoration of the railway to
Uralsk [1] is vitally essential. [2]
