d, Employees belonging to the nomenclature of any industrial or
economic combine, by the oblast or rayon committee Communist
Party. To this group belonged directors, trust section chiefs,
etc. of coal mines or other enterprises.
e. Nomenclature employees of any trust, by the oblast or rayon
committee Communist Party. These would be shaft engineers in
coal mines, section chiefs in the mine administration, and
similar employees.
f. Kolkhoz presidents and MTS directors who serviced one rayon, by
the rayon committee Communist Party. Directors of inter-rayon
MTS were cleared by the oblast committee Communist Party.
3. Accounting personnel were normally considered "nomenklaturnyy" of
the highest accounting authority in the responsible ministry.
Practically speaking, however, the chief accountant of a coal mine
was a nomenclature employee of the chief accountant of the respon-
sible trust; and in turn, the trust accountant was a nomenclature
employee of the chief accountant of the responsible combine. The
same procedure was applied to engineers and other specialized
employees.
All nomenclature employees first had to.bave.clearance from the
Party agency, and only after that could their appointments be
taken up with the responsible economic and administrative authorities..
Dismissal of nomenclature employees could be requested either by
responsible superiors or by Party authorities. In any case, dis-
missal was to be concurred in by the Party. In case of disagreement
of the'responsible ministry and Party agency, the matter was
referred to the higher Party agency whose decision was binding both
on the ministry and the subordinate Party agency. However, since
practically all employees in leading positions in economic life
were Party members, they usually accepted decisions of Party agen-
cies without any protest.
