Twelfth Simbirsk Uyezd Congress of Soviets
Simbirsk
This is to inform you that the Soviet Government is taking the most urgent and resolute measures to render assistance to those who have suffered from the crop failure. Collections have been started everywhere. On 12/VII the All-Russia Central Executive Committee appealed to the whole population of Russia to do everything to help the starving. A special famine relief committee has been set up under the All-Russia C.E.C. A similar committee has been set up to obtain assistance in the form of grain from abroad. Authorised representatives of the All-Russia C.E.C. are leaving for your parts within a few days. We are doing everything we can.
Lenin
Chairman, C.L.D.
