TELEPHONE MESSAGE TO THE PEOPLE’S COMMISSARIAT FOR RAILWAYS

P.C.R.

I direct you to settle within two days the matter of carrying the Kashira-Moscow electric line over the bridge
across the
Oka. [1]

Lenin

Chairman, Council of People’s Commissars

Notes:
[1]
This was written in connection with a complaint from the Kashira
project about the slow removal of the railway telegraph line from
one side of the bridge to the other, across the Oka River, close to
Kashira, to make way for the brackets supporting the transmission line between Moscow and Kashira.

That same day, V. V. Fomin, Deputy People’s Commissar for Railways, telegraphed an order to the Ryazan-Urals
Railway Administration to have the switch carried out immediately.
