8. X. 1920

Orgbureau of the Central Committee

In the resolution of the Orgbureau of 7.X (No. 59, point 3),

sub-pointb reprimands Comrade Bonch-Bruyevich for impermissibly approaching me on this and “similar petty questions”.

I request that this sub-point be cancelled

for when visiting the Kremlin hospital I personally heard the doctors mention the shortage of food for the patients and I myself asked the doctors to give me, through Bonch-Bruyevich, their written proposal

on better feeding of the patients, etc.

Consequently, there was not even an “approach” to me here on the part of Comrade Bonch-Bruyevich.

V. Ulyanov (Lenin)
