Comrade Vladimirov:
As regards the apparatus, you are being unjustly aggrieved. I quite agree with you, and am informing both Stalin and Rykov about it.—— As regards catching out “NEPmen” I advise that we give very careful thought (perhaps, assign to this in a highly secret manner Rozengolts and another one or two comrades) about what we should do shortly: either introduce an income tax or a compulsory loan? or: which earlier?
Local finances have already yielded considerable data. They should be systematically collected and processed, winkling out the namesand then deciding the matter raised.
With communist greetings,
Lenin
