23. XI. 1918
Army Commander Gittis
Vologda
I am entirely in sympathy with your plan to release prisoners of war, but only a few at a time and exclusively those who have really been won over by our propaganda. Telegraph me at once, if necessary in code, how many prisoners you have, of what nationality, and how many of them have been propagandised.
Lenin
Chairman, Council of People’s Commissars
