I shall at once inform Krasin, and regarding finance— Krestinsky.[2] Take rigorous measures in general; regarding Red Army men’s rations I cannot decide just now, I am told they received 1 1/4 lbs. The causes of lowered productivity must be investigated. Report to us more frequently, both you and Orlov.
