You have handled this matter in a very poor way, ignoring the formal side, and displaying a slack, non-military approach.[1]
Henceforth I shall have to take a more formal attitude towards you.
- â A reference to the fulfilment of orders for the manufacture of electric ploughs. Back in December 1920, the Narrow CPC, on Leninâs instructions, approved a plan for the manufacture of electric ploughing machines. It was being realised by the Extraordinary Commission for the Making of Electric Ploughing Implements (âElektroplugâ) which consisted of representatives of the SEC and the Peopleâs Commissariat for Agriculture. Later, its functions were transferred to the SECâs Central Administration for Agricultural Machinery. Lenin kept a close watch on the making of electric ploughs and demanded that the members of the commission supply him with regular and exact information about the fulfilment of the orders (see present edition, Vol. 36, p. 531; Collected Works, Fifth (Russian) Edition, Vol. 52, Document 34).
