Abstract

Moscow Is a Dynamo
Fischer, Louis | March 20, 1935 issue

add to cart   close window

The capital of any country is important. But Moscow is a thousand times more important to Soviet Union than London to England, or Paris to France, or Washington D.C. and New York to the U.S. Moscow is heart, brain and purse. Moscow is master, father, and teacher. A business enterprise in Manchester or in Chicago or in Lyons may have an agent or two in the capital of its respective country, pay taxes to the federal government and that is all. But Moscow builds, operates, finances and controls every big and even every relatively small factory, railroad, bank, mine, scientific institute and oil field in that vast country which covers one-sixth of the earth's surface.
