ON N. M. KNIPOVICH’S NOTE [1]

His request for a ship for the Azov Sea should be supported (I enclose his note).

Lenin

3/XII-22

I know N. M. Knipovich personally as an absolutely honest man. At one time, he was politically a Plekhanovite,
before that and later, a non-factional Social-Democrat. His
opinion can and must be regarded as being fully reliable.
Knipovich has a thorough and scientific knowledge of the
fishing industry: he has been studying it for 37 years.
