Facts about Stakhanov
I picked up some interesting facts and rare photographs from the "gay" life Stakhanovite workers in the USSR 30-ies.
In August 1935 the Donetsk coal miner Alexei Stakhanov (right photo) set a world record for the extraction of coal in 5 hours 45 minutes of having produced 102 tons, which exceeded the average daily production rates 14 times. Even given the fact that the Stakhanov helped two timber-man, it was really a great achievement, which caused great interest, both in our country and abroad. American University of Lincoln Stakhanov asked to send your picture to attach it to your photos with autographs and original letters of great men; Donbass come for experience French miners. In the autumn of 1935 in the country started a broad campaign, dubbed "Stakhanov movement».
You're a lot of evidence of foreigners coming to the USSR. Many of them are out of town and in the Donbass, which has always devoted several pages of his travel notes. Among them was Andre Gide, who, after a visit to the Soviet Union in June 1937, published his book "The Return of the USSR." At that time he was one of the most popular Western writers in the Soviet Union. But after a dozen years after the events, it remains a curious fact ...
The writer came to the legendary resort "Donbass" in Sochi, there is the official chronicle of the visit, which describes the admiration of guests with everything that he sees. But what was really the case? Yes, Gide refused by enthusiastic reviews canteens, homes and workers' clubs.
But, looking at the huge portrait on the wall Stakhanov (pictured miner AG Stakhanov divided experience), he was genuinely puzzled: "He was able to tell me, to perform five hours of operation, which takes eight days. I dare to ask, does this mean that in the five-hour operation initially planned eight days. But my question was met with restraint, chose not to respond to it. Then I talked about how a group of French miners, traveling across the USSR, in a comradely replaced at one of the mines brigade of Soviet miners and without tension, without even suspecting it, fulfilled the Stakhanovite norm "- wrote Gide in his memoirs.
Naturally, after such discussions and publications, author of Stalin's personal order more in the USSR were not allowed. Everyone was entitled to only one opinion, approved by the governing party.

Unfortunately, the desire to be among the leading companies that develop the Stakhanov movement, and also led to all sorts of machinations, which puts into question the real achievements of industrial workers. Important role played here and the material factor - Stakhanovite received very high premium at the time, what the newspapers eagerly reported.

For example, one worker performed the job 175% and gained 7 hours 48 rubles. (while the average monthly salary of workers at the plant was about 300 rubles). Since both the bosses and the workers themselves were interested in "Stakhanov" fulfillment of the plan, often there is a tendency to underestimate the rules.
However, despite many have taken place negative points: "rekordomaniyu" desire at any cost to increase the quantitative indicators to the detriment of the quality of products and even different machinations at rationing, the spread of the Stakhanov movement helped increase productivity, improve discipline and reveal the hidden reserves.
