Written on the back of Krestinsky’s note to Lenin concerning
the theses of a resolution on finance written by Y. Larin for the
Third All-Russia Congress of Economic Councils (January 23–29,
1920) “I regard them as impracticable and politically
harmful,” wrote Krestinsky.

On January 23, in view of Larin’s repeated statements conflicting with the policy of the Party, the Politbureau of the C.C., R.C.P.(B.) adopted a decision to remove him from the Board
of the Supreme Economic Council.
