Closed Letter of the Central Committee, 2 April 1930
Information about mass disturbances of peasants in the Central Black Earth Oblast, Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Siberia, [and] Moscow Oblast coming into the CC in February cannot be characterized as anything but threatening. If we had not immediately taken measures against the violations of the party line, we would have had a vast wave of insurrectionary peasant uprisings, a good part of our lower-level officials would have been slaughtered by the peasantry, the sowing would have been disrupted… and our internal and external situation would have been threatened.
