Comrade Sereda,

Please give me your comments.[1]

It is essential, as a matter of the greatest urgency, to prepare a plan for a tractor campaign.

1) Purchase abroad 

2) Production in Russia 

3) Technicians—
workers, etc.

Be sure to let me know in a day or so, when you will present a preliminary memorandum. (Should not a conference he convened at once?)

Lenin

19/X.
