TO G. I. PETROVSKY AND M. V. FRUNZE

Telegram to Kharkov
To Petrovsky and Frunze

Pyatakov is strongly urging me to help in getting Sergei Syrtsov from Odessa to be sent to the Donbass as a secretary. Pyatakov accuses the CC of the CP(B)U of being unwilling to send Syrtsov only out of factional fears, since, he says, Syrtsov is a Trotskyist. Pyatakov states that neither he nor Syrtsov promise to engage in factional politics. I do not know Syrtsov, and I ask you to gather all information and reply to me.
