Letter to Nikolai Gorbunov, September 11, 1921
This instruction arose from N. P. Gorbunov’s letter, in which he communicated the results of an inquiry into the delay over M. P. Sazhin’s business trip abroad and added that “there was no deliberate red tape on the part of the People’s Commissariat for Education”. Lenin underlined the word “deliberate”.
First published in 1945 in train Miscellany XXXV. Printed from the original.
We should learn to track down and punish rod tape which is unintentional, because you can never catch the “deliberate” one.

Tsyurupa, chief engineer of the Kashira Electric-Power Station, requesting assistance in obtaining the electrotechnical materials required for the construction site from the SEC’s Electrical Department, to which Lenin sent a telegram on September 12, 1921 (see this volume, Document 380).
