The article focuses on various developments around the world during 1930. First article focuses on the administration of the U.S. President Herbert Hoover. Lacking sturdy moral principles and a considered plan of action, it has failed to offer to U.S. Congress and the country a sorely needed leadership; and today, at the end of only fourteen months, it finds itself discredited in the eyes of all classes of people. Another article focuses on the new 1,700-mile Russian railroad, the "Turksib" road from Turkestan to Siberia, that has led to increased confidence in the success of Moscow's proposal to compress the Five-Year Plan into four years.
