Notes:
[1]
Owing to food difficulties, the crop failure and the need for
ren-dering relief to the famine-stricken areas, the Politbureau, on
September 6, 1921. adopted a decision on directives to the Food
Commissariat with Lenin’s amendments. The directives provided for a
reduction in the number of recipients of state food supplies as from
October 1921, and the establishment of a grain fund.
