GEORGIA
1923 28 Feb. FL from Tiflis to Moscow with 3x1000r + 5000r making up the proper 8000r rate. The contents provide a unique insight into the activities of the local Trade Union that ranged from resolving local firehouse squabbles to evicting a former homeowner from the house being used as the Union headquarters on the grounds that "...this house had been built by the workers and therefore belongs to the workers". An interesting example of the Bolshevik mentality at that time
