V. I.

Lenin

493

To:   I. I. RADCHENKO

Comrade Radchenko:

This is a Party veteran.

Such men will be of undoubted use in combating dishonest elements abroad.

He is riot a merchant but, according to people experienced in commerce, will be of unquestionable benefit as an honest
man.

I request his appointment. [1]

With communist greetings, Lenin
