Only

to Comrade Stalin and Comrade Kamenev

Please have a look at this short report from Sokolnikov,
which he has given me in reply to my inquiry of yesterday.
First, the report is incomplete, arid I have demanded additional
information, [1] second, if it is correct, the implication is that Novitsky has been giving us downright
incorrect figures. We must find out the whole truth on this
matter, and, if it turns out that Novitsky gave us incorrect figures, the question must be raised in the Politbureau of
prosecuting him.
