By letter of July 13 he asks that the matter of the rescinding of the decision of Glavtop and the Presidium of the VSNKh concerning the inclusion of Glavslanets in Glavugol be brought before the Council of Labour and Defence. He asks that Glavslanets’ independence be preserved.

I enclose a copy of his letter.

Please give me a brief opinion in a few lines as soon as possible.

Gubkin’s arguments seem to me weighty.

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