I warmly congratulate the workers, engineers, technicians, and employees of the Yenakievo Metallurgical Plant on the successful restoration and bringing into operation of two blast furnaces.

With your exemplary work you have made a beginning in the restoration of ferrous metallurgy in the Donbas and have proved that the difficult task of restoring industry and liquidating the consequences of the Germans' barbarous plundering can be solved in a short time.

I wish you further success in your work.

I. Stalin
