"At the previous meeting, the Politburo, the Organization Bureau and the Secretariat of the CPC Central Committee had discussed and decided to add a deputy chairman to the existing basis of the Central Supervisory Commission of the Party Central Committee, which was approved by the Supreme Soviet. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

We have not yet decided on the candidate for the vice chairman of the Central Supervisory Commission. In my opinion, Comrade Manturov is more suitable for this position. ”

After Stalin finished speaking, everyone present (except for Stalin and Andreyev) was very surprised.

Three years ago, when Manturov became secretary of the state party committee, he caused an uproar. Although the constitution of the All-Union Communist Party (Bolsheviks) did not impose any restrictions on the age of the secretary of the state party committee, the appointment of a young man in his twenties as the head of the state party committee had already broken the record of the youngest secretary of the state party committee since the founding of the Soviet Union.

Now Stalin is going so far as to promote this young man to the post of deputy chairman of the Central Supervisory Committee of the Party! This is indeed quite surprising.

The Central Supervisory Commission is the Supervisory Committee of the Central Committee of the All-Union Communist Party (Bolsheviks). This department should be relatively unfamiliar to the big people living in China in the 21st century, but when it comes to the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, I think everyone should also have an impression.

On the whole, the Central Supervision Commission was the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection of the Soviet Union. As a discipline inspection organ directly under the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, the Central Supervision Commission, like the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, has the functions of party style, party discipline, and anti-corruption, and is responsible for supervising the discipline and work style of party members and party organizations.

In addition, the Central Supervision Commission will also monitor the operation of Party organizations to ensure that the decisions of the Party Central Committee are implemented and implemented in different Party organizations.

There is no doubt that this Central Supervisory Commission is a very powerful body, and if Manturov can become the deputy chairman of the Central Supervisory Commission, then his power will not be small.

Stalin also guessed from the expressions of the crowd what they thought. With the exception of Manturov, Kaganovich and Andreyev, who had communicated with him in advance, the other members of the Organizing Bureau seemed to have some ideas about this candidate. "Comrades, what do you think of this candidate? Or do you have a better candidate? ”

As for the candidate of Manturov, whether it is Zhdanov, Malenkov, Mikhailov, Shcherbakov or Schvernik, I do not agree with it in my heart.

Only Stalin, who proposed the candidate, Manturov, who was nominated, Andreyev, who had communicated beforehand, and Kaganovich, who was close to Manturov, supported the appointment.

The current situation is that there are four people who support Manturov as deputy chairman of the Central Supervisory Commission and five who oppose it. According to the principle of democratic centralism, if there are more opponents than supporters, the proposal will be vetoed, no matter how high the status of the supporters.

However, several of the opponents present were bureaucrats under Stalin. Before they did everything, before they said anything, they had to look at Stalin's face.

As long as it was something that Stalin opposed, even if they wanted to, they did not dare to do it; What Stalin did not like to hear, they naturally would not dare to say it in front of Stalin, unless they had good reasons and enough confidence to convince Stalin.

Zhdanov, Mikhailov and Schvernik opposed the appointment on a very normal basis, that is, they felt that Manturov was too young to be suitable for such an important post.

As for Malenkov, he is not worried about whether he will be able to do a good job and be qualified for the position. What he was worried about was whether his position would affect his position in the Soviet power, whether it would affect his position in Stalin's mind, and whether he would use his power to do things for himself.

In his opinion, after Manturov became deputy chairman of the Central Supervisory Commission, he did not have much influence on himself, nor could he shake his position in Stalin's mind, and the reason why he did not approve of the appointment in his heart was simply because Manturov was not a member of his own faction.

Shcherbakov's opposition was more complicated: Manturov's age was certainly a problem, but his greatest concern was not Manturov's age, but the fear that the appointment would upset the balance of power in the Moscow city committee.

Shcherbakov is the first secretary of the Moscow City and Oblast Party Committee, as well as a member of the Secretariat of the Central Committee and a member of the Organization Bureau of the Central Committee. Because of his important position in the Party Central Committee, Shcherbakov has a strong control over the Moscow City Party Committee and the State Party Committee, and his voice is very heavy, and no one dares to challenge his position.

However, if Manturov becomes the deputy chairman of the Central Supervisory Commission, Katya, as the second secretary of the Moscow Municipal Party Committee, will have a harder backer, and her influence in the Moscow Municipal Party Committee will naturally become greater.

"I think Comrade Manturov is the best candidate for the post of deputy chairman of the Central Supervision Commission," Andreyev, chairman of the Central Supervision Commission (Central Commission for Discipline Inspection), actually spoke at this time, "When he was the first secretary of the party committee of the Novosibirsk region, he paid close attention to the discipline work of the local party organizations.

From 1938 to the present, there have been no problems with the party organizations in the Novosibirsk region, and the quality of the party organization cadres in the Novosibirsk region has become better and better.

In addition, Comrade Manturov has done a lot of work in the army, in the building of the People's Commissariat, and in the discipline of cadres, which has improved the quality of cadres to a certain extent and strengthened their organization and discipline......

In his speech, Andreyev summed up Manturov's achievements in cadre discipline over the years, and at the same time expressed his support for Manturov's attitude, which surprised everyone present.

What makes people feel that Andreyev is actually on Manturov's side. Behind this, what is the relationship between the two? Or rather, why did Andreyev support Manturov? What's in it for him?

"I also think that Comrade Manturov is a suitable candidate," Kaganovich also expressed his attitude: "Comrade Andreyev mentioned just now that Comrade Manturov is able to do a good job in discipline and organization in all positions, while the other people's commissars and some first secretaries of the state party committees seem to have slackened in discipline and organizational work.

In my opinion, the Central Supervision Commission should have a person who cares about organizational building and discipline supervision, and it needs a person who can do a good job in the discipline work of the party organization. Judging by these aspects, Comrade Manturov is undoubtedly the most suitable candidate. ”
