Addendum to the Draft Decision for the C.P.C. “On the Distribution of Agricultural Machines” [2]

No agricultural machines or implements are to be supplied
unless there is effective control on the part of the Food Commissariat over
receipt by the state of farm produce in exchange for such machines and
implements.

The forms of control are to be laid down in special instructions by
arrangement between the Agriculture and Food Commissariats.

The Agriculture and Food Commissariats shall be directed to consider
and submit a plan for the most simple and economical way of delivering
machines to the consumers. [1]

The draft decision was considered at a meeting of the C.P.C. on April
26, and after the insertion of a number of addenda, was referred to the
Narrow C.P.C. for revision. The document published here, formulated by
Lenin as Point 5 of the draft decision, was accepted as a basis at the same
meeting of the Council. The final decision concerning the distribution of
agricultural machines was endorsed by the C.P.C. on May 17, 1921.
