The third anniversary of the October Revolution is fast approaching—and it must be commemorated by honoring our heroic Red Army, while also providing even a modest amount of supplementary nutrition to children and working people alike. Confident that this appeal will find a warm response among you, I hereby urge you, without delay—do not postpone it for a single day—to organize and dispatch, to the address Moscow – Narkomprod, in time for the October Anniversary, seven routes of white flour, one route per day, while simultaneously telegraphing me and Narkomprod to inform us of the date of departure. At the same time, the NKPS is instructed to grant these routes the same priority as military trains. Please notify Komprod Distribution upon both receipt and dispatch.

Chairman of the Sovnarkom, Lenin
