Comrade Molotov!

A week ago I sent a protest letter addressed to you against the plan for the immediate commencement of the electrification of the Dnieper rapids. I have not yet received a reply. Has the letter perhaps been lost in transit -- did you receive it? What is the fate of the letter -- write me a couple of words, if you are not too lazy.

I shake your hand.

I. Stalin.
