Comrade Gorbunov!

1) Commission him to prepare a report with practical proposals (shorter, shorter, and more precise).

2) Collect all his books for me.

3) Request written evaluations of him from Rozengolts, Kirsanov, V. M. Sverdlov, Antselov, and others.

4) Commission the author for a curriculum vitae* and a record of his service 1917–1921.
