LETTER TO THE COMMITTEE OF THE I STATE
CARTOGRAPHIC ESTABLISHMENT
Petrograd
August 20, 1920
Thank you very much for sending another copy of the atlas
"Railways of Russia" and I ask you not to forget that if you are to
publish a new atlas with new administrative divisions, it is necessary to very carefully collect information from the People's Commissars

1920 about the borders of both the new gubernias and the Tatar, Bashkir
and other republics, regions, and communes (German, Chuvash)
and others.
It is unlikely that the matter will be settled without a commission under the Council of People's Commissars.*
With communist greetings,
V. Ulyanov (Lenin)
