The Bridge publishes a confidential report from the Main Concession Committee dated February 17, 1924, detailing the results of an unusual experiment. Thirty American farmworkers, who had arrived in the Don Governorate through the Society for Technical Assistance to Soviet Russia, were granted 1,000 desiatinas of land by the People’s Commissariat of Agriculture for a period of 24 years. The document reveals details of the agreement, the commune’s obligations regarding land cultivation, the tax regime, and the terms for leasing construction materials. The main condition is that upon expiration of the contract, the entire farm, including both livestock and equipment, is transferred to the state free of charge.
