Copy to: Chief Peat Committee

Comrade Radchenko requests:

1) that a mission of 10 employees (under the guarantee of Comrade Radchenko and Comrade Smilga) be officially assigned by the Chief Peat Committee to Finland, Sweden, Denmark and Canada
for the purpose of studying the organisation of peat extraction;

2) that the necessary sum of money be released for this purpose;

3) that the departure be arranged so that three persons leave by May 1, and the remainder by
June 1.

I request that this matter be expedited, but that the Chief Peat Committee be obliged to submit a detailed report on the work done after the mission is completed.

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

P.S. I insist on the necessity of speeding up this matter extremely and of informing me without fail of its actual fulfilment.
