Soviets Open Vast Areas To Travelers
The Soviet government released an official note opening wide areas of European and Asiatic Russia to unrestricted travel by foreigners. The move follows years of restricted entry for diplomats and visitors, though many regions remain off limits. Mrs. Perle Mesta will be the first to benefit, with plans to visit Ukraine and key sites like the Dnieper Dam and Zaborozhe steel plant.
