Telegram to G.K. Ordzhonikidze, August 26, 1931

I received your letter. The reply is coming by letter. Regarding American orders, I disagree. If we do not abandon orders for America and the hooliganism of the credit terms practiced in America, we risk losing the preferential credit terms we have won in Europe. You are not taking this into account, and this is the main thing.
