To People's Commissar of Labour Shmidt
I refused to sign the resolution on the merger of the People's Commissariat of Labour and the Main Labour Committee. I consider it necessary to establish and formalize an organizational connection with the People's Commissariat of Internal Affairs and the People's Commissariat of Military Affairs at the center and locally, with the concentration of labour conscription in the hands of the People's Commissariat of Labour.
