The article presents information on the Kuzbas. A series of dramatic events, little known outside of Russia, brought to a precipitous close the U.S. control of the mining enterprise known as "Kuzbas" in Kuznetsk Basin, Russia. Unfriendly critics of social experiments point to Kuzbas as an awful example of the failure of "Utopias," as they rather contemptuously term colonies with unique social ideas. However, Kuzbas was never intended by the Soviet Government to be other than a Soviet state enterprise, run on U.S. lines and consequently needing a number of qualified U.S. workers.
