Russia in transition An American newspaperman Sees Russia As It is Today
St Louis Post-Dispatch reporter Raymond P. Brandt tours Russia to compare present conditions with his 1918 Hoover Food Relief Commission visit and last year. He notes American engineers citing Russia as a major market potential and cites specific plants in Nizhni Novgorod, Chelyabinsk, Verblad, Stalingrad, and Dnieprostroy with millions in American machinery and power equipment either planned or supplied, highlighting tensions over alleged dumping and industrial needs.
