Comrade Svidersky,
The following desperate position of factories has been brought to my notice:
Works Management No. 6 of Kaluga Gubernia, the Troitsk– Kondrovo and Polotnyany factories, formerly V. Howard and Goncharov Co.
Howardovo station, Syzran-Vyazma railway, and Polotnyany Zavod station.
Workers approximately .... 2,500–3,000 Office workers ................... 200 persons Mouths ......................... 12,000 ”
On February 28 this year militarised.
In December assigned Red Army rations. They are receiving nothing.[1]
Please think of some kind of special instruction for food to be issued to them and send me your reply.
