Committee
Kharkov
Copy to Vladimirov, Chairman of the Special Food
Commission of the Southern Front

The transport situation is so grave here that heroic efforts are needed both for deliveries of coal here and even more for stepping up repairs to locomotives. Put the best people on this, check personally, introduce a bonus in grain   for every locomotive repaired, restore the best repair-shops, introduce work in two and three shifts. Telegraph fulfilment.

Lenin
Chairman, Council of Defence
