ON THE ORGANISATION OF THE KEROSENE TRADE
NOTE TO A. D. TSYURUPA
January 1922
If it has been proved that the procurement offices of the Commissariat for Food are able, without additional expenditure by the state, to take and sell kerosene, the matter should be turned over (without prejudging the general question) to the Commissariat for Food on condition that (1) the price be raised; (2) the money be returned and returned immediately to the state treasury; (3) the Central Union of Consumers’ Societies be given a percentage for commission, but the main consideration should be: to return money to the state treasury more quickly and in larger amounts.
The calculation of how much (in millions of gold rubles) must be given to the Chief Fuel Administration—and of what percentage of oil products must be given to the Chief Fuel Administration—should be verified once again with the participation of Popov and Strumilin.
