Stewart, Maxwell S. | September 17, 1938 issue

add to cart   close window

The article presents the author's experiences on his visit to Moscow, Soviet Union, after an interval of five years. The changes, which have taken place, are so fundamental that one feels one is encountering a completely new personality. The physical transformation of the city is the most striking of these changes. Old houses are coming down throughout the city and are being replaced by attractive new structures. Far more significant than the changes wrought in the face of the city is the improvement in general living conditions.
