Russia Shifts Toward Capitalist Economy Says Dalton
Captain Dalton reports to the Exchange Club that Russia shows signs of reintroducing private property and market activity under Lenin and Trotzky, despite widespread famine and disease among refugees. He cites illiteracy, corruption, and the prevalence of communists in Moscow. The American Relief administration has fed about 10 million adults and children and shipped medical supplies, while cholera and typhus remain major threats.
