Lidia Aleksandrovna!

Please distribute the attached 19 letters, if you would, with verification (in the dispatch and receipt book).

It is necessary to establish a bound book of receipts, and in it recipients (all of them) of my packages with messengers should sign (everyone). Glue the receipts into it as well.

Add the seal and signature of the secretary to Kzhizhanovskaya's [letter]. If necessary, I will rewrite it on a form. Send 10-20 forms.

Greetings! Lenin

8/VII.

P. S. Ask Sklyansky to send me a secret memorandum

(1) on the military situation, (2) on what the Commander-in-Chief agreed upon with Stalin.
