Zinoviev
Smolny
Petrograd

I have given orders for trucks to be dispatched to Petrograd from Moscow and from Nizhni-Novgorod by passenger trains. See to it. If you were caught napping during the hold-up a month ago and failed to lodge a complaint in time, then you can blame yourself also for not having taken steps to verify the speed of trucks after our telephone conversation on Friday.^[1]
