NOTE: On 19 August 1932, Kaganovich wrote: "To Comrade Stalin. We sent Stetsky to Leningrad to investigate the circumstances of the publication of Kaisarov's article in Krasnaya Gazeta. It is known that Kaisarov is non-Party, a former officer, now an engineer at a branch of Soyuztrans. After the investigation, we will determine the punishments for those responsible for publishing such an article."
