TELEPHONE MESSAGE TO B. S. STOMONYAKOV [1]

Orders for the Kashira electric-power station are of especial importance. There is a C.C. decision on the
unconditional need to accelerate this matter, so as to have the
station started with 12,000 kw not later than December of this year. Find out about these orders everything you
can before you leave, and upon your arrival in Berlin take
all steps to speed and check up on accurate execution.
I regard this as your personal responsibility. Please telegraph me from Berlin about the measures you take, when
exactly the orders will be ready, and when exactly they
will be delivered in Moscow.

Lenin
Chairman, Council of People’s Commissars
