Pyatakov
Council of Labour Army 1
Ekaterinburg

In confirmation of Comrade Vladimirsky’s telegram, the Council of People’s Commissars instructs all local institutions of the Cis-Urals to be extremely moderate and cautious as regards the new administrative division of the   gubernias. The Council of Labour Army 1 should also be guided by this directive and, in particular, not set up any special commissions on this question[1]

Pyatakov
Council of Labour Army 1
Ekaterinburg

At its sitting on 20/IV. 20, the Council of People’s Commissars decided: to reprimand the Council of Labour Army  1 for its insufficiently serious attitude towards the question of the new division of the gubernias, and to demand in future more thorough preparation of the matter so that there can be no contradictory reports from the localities.

Notes

[1] Written in reply to a telegram of April 17, 1920, in which the Council of the 1st Labour Army asked that boundary changes should be stopped and that it be allowed to draft maps of the Urals and Cis-Urals gubernias and uyezds. On Lenin’s motion this question was discussed by the Council of People’s Commissars on April 20, 1920. In accordance with its decision, the present telegram was sent to the Council of the 1st Labour Army.

The same meeting discussed a “Protest of the 1st Labour Army Concerning the New Division of the Tyumen and Chelyabinsk Gubernias”. = The C.P.C. adopted the decision quoted in the second telegram.
