Beria Signed Documents.
Document with Beria signature:
Typed document signed as “L Beria” in red pencil as Commissar of Interior Affair, dated October 12, 1938 (right in the midle of purges!!!" 1 page, 8”x 10”, usual fold Document reads: "Kolustin was working on Minsk-Orsha-Vitebsk airway from September 20, 1938 . He did 8 independent flights on this line. He was responsible in doing his job. NKVD (KGB) doesn't have any compromising material for him. There were no passengers on the plane. The mail taken from Minsk was civilian, the character of which is being cleaned up. The chief of the frontier and internal NKVD forces of Byelorussian district has been given instruction to report to the Polish representative about emergency landing of the plane as a result of lost orientation and to demand the pilot and the plane back." close-up of autograph |

Here's an earlier one from 1928, probably signed in a hurry.
The document itself is a perfect example of early Soviet official language - "eloquent" to the point of making no sense, but I guess this lady tried to cross the Poland border. Would anyone like to take a shot at translating it? :) Alexei |

Alexei,
Is my Russian that bad or does it basically says: Without proof trying to cross into Poland, Polibinoy w/out Dvoryanka status/class, calling herself that, is under suspision of trying to cross border. :confused:

Rusty,
No, it's somebody else's bad Russian. I think it says: "... taking into account that former gentry Polibina offered false pretext for her attempt to cross the border with Poland, which causes suspicion, that this attempt was deliberate..." What do you think? Alexei |
