Comrade Gorbunov! This Bonch-Bruyevich (not a relative, but only a namesake of Vl. Dm. Bonch-Bruyevich) is, according to all reports, a most outstanding inventor. The matter is of gigantic importance (a newspaper without paper and without wires, for with a loudspeaker and a receiver improved by B.-Bruyevich to such an extent that we shall easily get hundreds of receivers, the whole of Russia will hear the newspaper read in Moscow).

I earnestly request you:

1) to give special attention to this matter, calling in Ostryakov and talking by telephone with Nizhni-Novgorod;

2) to rush through the attached draft decree in the Small Council. If it does not pass unanimously quickly, be sure to prepare it for the Large Council of People’s Commissars by Tuesday;

3) to report to me twice a month on the progress of the work.81
