AND INSTRUCTION TO V. A. SMOLYANINOV

18/IX.
Comrade Lomonosov, Comrade Lomonosov! I have not yet returned to work, but shall do so soon (October 1). 463

I consider it absolutely essential that you return to Russia with the utmost speed to take up work, not a professorship in Kiev (as you wrote to Kamenev and Dzerzhinsky), but a post in the People’s Commissariat for Railways or local work (beginning not as a station master, as you suggested to me, remember? but as a railway divisional manager), or central work, as Dzerzhinsky may direct. 464

With Communist greetings, Lenin

Comrade Smolyaninov!

Show the enclosed letter to Dzerzhinsky and Rykov and return it very quickly for dispatch to the addressee. Keep me more precisely informed. Urge on all the other recipients of my notes. 465
