Comrade Krestinsky

Comrade Shapovalov (Alexander Isidorovich) is one of the old Party comrades. A Petrograd worker.

I knew him very well in the Party while still abroad, where he always worked like a cart-horse.

Now he is ill . He is badly in need of extra nourishment.

Cannot it be arranged for him to use the Kremlin dining-room? I earnestly request this and a ration (increased)
for him, and help of every kind.

Lenin
