Khrushchev, in green ink, two pages, 4to, Voroshilovograd, 23rd November 1947, to comrades Secretaries of the regional executive committees of the Communist Party of Ukraine, Kabanov and Gayev, in Cyrillic. Khrushchev, in his capacity as Secretary of the Central Committee of the Ukranian Communist Party, states in part `..the expansion of the distribution and the capacity of increasing bread-baking plants has not been satisfactorily implemented in your region. In the second half of 1947, only 227 stores were open instead of 422 planned, 197 stores instead of 260, as well as local tenders open 79 local tents instead of 142 planned…´, Khrushchev further concludes `The plan for opening a bread distribution network is particularly poorly implemented… Commerce premises are occupied for other purposes and are not fully vacated yet. Only 26 tons of daily bread-making production have been added in 1947 instead of the 261 planned… Immediate verification of the implementation of these plans is required by the Council of Ministers… Ensure the fulfillment of these tasks by 5th December, 1947..´ Also signed at the base by D. Korotchenko, in purple ink, Secretary of the Ukranian Communist party. Two binder holes and few small pinholes to the left border, none affecting the text or signatures. G
