To the Podolsk District Food Committee

Copy to the Podolsk District Executive Committee

I have been directly presented with the following petition 315.

I can confirm the difficult food supply situation in the village of Bogdanovo (Bogdaniha in common parlance). I therefore request that their petition be reviewed immediately and that their situation be alleviated to the extent possible, i.e., that the requisition levy imposed on them be reduced to the extent possible.

I request that you inform me of your decision both in writing and by telephone.

Chairman of the Council of People's Commissars V. Ulyanov (Lenin)
