on the regional executive committee adopted a declaration about the assembly of an all-ukrainian congress of soviets on in kiev. an organizational bureau was created and this developed a system of representation on the assumption that around 500 people would attend the congress. representatives of all the councils of workers', peasants', and soldiers' deputies from guberniyas, counties, and cities should have participated in the congress, including ones that were under influence of ukrainian parties. however, the representational system gave a great advantage to delegates from the councils of the industrial regions and the big cities where bolsheviks had the biggest influence. in contrast, the peasants' representation was so limited that it was going to be even smaller than in the fourth state duma under tsarist rule.
