Motion for the Politbureau of the C.C., R.C.P.(B.) on Allocation of Funds to the Nizhni-Novgorod Radio Laboratory ( Re the request of Dovgalevsky for 50,000 gold rubles to be
allocated to the Nizhni-Novgorod Radio Laboratory)

I support the request and ask Comrade Molotov to put this to the vote
of the Politbureau. I ask the Politbureau members to bear in mind the
exceptional importance of the Nizhni-Novgorod Radio Laboratory, the tremendous services it has
already rendered and the great use it can be to us in the near future both
in military matters and in propaganda work. [1]
