To L. B. Krasin

I request you to reach full agreement with G. D. Tsyurupa, before Stomonyakov's departure, on the purchase in Berlin and the immediate delivery to him, without the slightest delay, of the materials necessary for completing the Kashira project.

I request you to inform me what measures can be taken to expedite the agreement with the platinum and diamond firm that you spoke to me about. I consider expediting this matter absolutely necessary. 48
