Moscow dispatch says Pravda columnist Zaslavaky accused William L. White, son of William Allen White, of traveling to Russia to spread calumny. The piece cites White's forthcoming book About Russians and contrasts his conclusions with those of Eric Johnston, praising Johnston’s impartiality while accusing White of deception and misrepresenting Soviet life. The article labels White’s work as an attack by a biased American press and notes White’s unconfirmed New York statement.
