In reviewing the budget of the People's Commissariat of Agriculture, the inter-departmental meeting refused to include the budget of Gossemkultura in the budget of the People's Commissariat of Agriculture, proposing to request a loan from the State Bank, which instead of the required 3.5 trillion rubles for the first quarter, gives only one trillion.
Attaching great state importance to the work of the Shatilovsky Trust and being convinced that the improvement of plant cultures according to the American model is one of the most important bases for increasing the productivity of our agriculture,—I request a review of the decision of the inter-departmental meeting, so as to meet the needs of Gossemkultura as much as possible.
Chairman of the Council of People's Commissars
