RESOLUTION
OF THE COUNCIL OF PEOPLE'S COMMISSARS OF THE UKRAINIAN
SOVIET SOCIALIST REPUBLIC (6 DECEMBER 1932)
In
view of the shameful collapse of grain collection in the
more remote regions of Ukraine, the Council of People's
Commissars and the Central Committee call upon the oblast
executive committees and the oblast [party] committees
as well as the raion executive committees and the raion
[party] committees: to break up the sabotage of grain
collection, which has been organized by kulak and counterrevolutionary
elements; to liquidate the resistance of some of the rural
communists, who in fact have become the leaders of the
sabotage; to eliminate the passivity and complacency toward
the saboteurs, incompatible with being a party member;
and to ensure, with maximum speed, full and absolute compliance
with the plan for grain collection.
The
Council of People's Commissars and the Central Committee
resolve:
To
place the following villages on the black list for overt
disruption of the grain collection plan and for malicious
sabotage, organized by kulak and counterrevolutionary
elements: [list of villages]
The
following measures should be undertaken with respect to
these villages:
1.
Immediate cessation of delivery of goods, complete suspension
of cooperative and state trade in the villages, and removal
of all available goods from cooperative and state stores.
2.
Full prohibition of collective farm trade for both collective
farms and collective farmers, and for private farmers.
3.
Cessation of any sort of credit and demand for early repayment
of credit and other financial obligations.
4.
Investigation and purge of all sorts of foreign and hostile
elements from cooperative and state institutions, to be
carried out by organs of the Workers and Peasants Inspectorate.
5.
Investigation and purge of collective farms in these villages,
with removal of counterrevolutionary elements and organizers
of grain collection disruption.
The
Council of People's Commissars and the Central Committee
call upon all collective and private farmers who are honest
and dedicated to Soviet rule to organize all their efforts
for a merciless struggle against kulaks and their accomplices
in order to: defeat in their villages the kulak sabotage
of grain collection; fulfill honestly and conscientiously
their grain collection obligations to the Soviet authorities;
and strengthen collective farms.
