Comrade Dzerzhinsky:
Please write for me, or have your secretary write for me, a short (10â20 lines) note about the unsuccessful purchase of 400 (instead of 1,000) poods of accessories for making boots (accessories whose selection was unsatisfactory, wrong).
I need this to issue instructions on what we are to avoid and how. How similar mistakes are to be avoided.[1]
Yours,
Lenin
- â In reply to this note, Dzerzhinsky sent Lenin a short report the same day describing the circumstances of the unsuccessful purchase of foreign tacks. On Dzerzhinskyâs report Lenin wrote: â(About tacks). Keep and give me a reminderâ (Lenin Miscellany XXXVI, p. 211).
