Comrade Sklyanski!

I request that you receive the bearer of this letter, comrade Cheverev, a member of the RCP since 1908, a worker from the Urals, three years in the Red Army, former commander of the 23rd Division, now political commissar of the 111th Brigade. His observations concerning the error we have permitted seem to me very substantial.357

Please treat his exposition of the matter with the greatest possible attention and order that the question be reviewed more carefully. Report the results to me.

With comradely greetings, Lenin
