Sokolnikov

It is necessary at all costs to put down the revolt quickly, once and for all. Beloborodov has been sent from the Central Committee. I fear you are making a mistake in not applying severe measures, but if you are absolutely convinced that there are not enough forces for dealing with it summarily, then wire immediately and in detail. What about promising an amnesty and at that price completely disarming them? Reply at once. We are sending trainees of two more commanders’ courses.

Lenin
