To Frumkin:
1. Please inform me that I am requesting you to procure for me, by way of Yanugievsky, a report on the mineral wealth—both ore deposits and other resources—of the Black Sea coast and of Teberda in the Kuban region.
2.
If Frumkin is not available here, then please send the materials to me from Rostov-on-Don.
Lenin.

[March 23, 1921]
Request Rykov and Lomov*.
By the time of the 8th Congress of Soviets, Ivanov, a member of the Caucasus Labor Army and bearing a covering letter from Belo­
<)orodov, had brought to Moscow materials concerning the mineral wealth and concessions of the South-Eastern region (the Sal’sk steppes, mountainous mineral resources, and the like), addressed to
ST.O.
(50–60 pages typed)
(in particular, the sugar-beet industry, integrated with sheep farming and cattle breeding in the Sal’sk steppes).
Ascertain the situation from Rykov and Lomov and obtain these materials for me**.
1 Frumkin, M. I.—a member of the Board of the People’s Commissariat for Trade and an authorized representative of the People’s Commissariat for Foreign Trade in the South-Eastern region.
2 The “Report on the Locations of Certain Ores in the Kuban Region” was delivered to V. I. Lenin on March 18 in two copies. On the first copy, Lenin appended a resolution (see the document printed above, p. 190, No. 6386); on the second, he made the notation: “March 18—sent to Lezhava, Rykov, and Lomov.”
* Beloborodov, A.—Chairman of the South-Eastern Economic Council.
* The first line was written by the secretary. Ed.
** The final postscript was added later by Lenin in pencil. Ed.*

The tables printed below were compiled by Lenin, as indicated by the note in the subheading, based on materials provided by the editorial staff of “Economic Life.”
In the archives,
these materials have not been preserved.
Judging from the series of articles published in “Economic Life” in April 1924, which examined the state of key industrial sectors over that period, Lenin did not rely on those materials but rather on other sources from the editorial staff—on the basis of which he constructed the consolidated table.
The second table (salt production), whose aggregate figures were incorporated into the first, reveals that Lenin did not possess complete data on salt output; instead, he carried out preliminary work, compiling initial information on a separate sheet of paper.
