Abstract
The VPKs did not survive for very long after the October Revolution. At a session of the TsVPK on 4 December, N.N. Iznar, acting chairman since Guchkov’s departure, was replaced by the lawyer, M.S. Margulies. The committee attempted to realize its tripartite plan for representation at this session, but a delegation from the Petrograd Soviet insisted that in accordance with the ‘recent events’ all public and governmental bodies had to be reorganized with workers in the majority. The session on 23 January 1918 was the first at which this principle was achieved.[1] By that time, Vesenkha had placed the VPKs under its committee on demobilization and renamed them National-Industries Committees.[2]
