CITIES OF RUSSIA OVERFLOW
NOW WITH VISITING ALIENS
MOSCOW, Aug. 21—Russian iso
lgtion ■ Is ended. Three years ago
the presence of a foreign visitor in
Moscow or Petrograd was sufficient
to cause the native populace to Htare
at him as it iie were a being from
some other world Two years ago
foreigners ttiU so rare that the
few American and British newspaper!
correspondents scented a story In:
each of them and tried to interview I
all who came to Rnssia. Last year
they were still sufficiently rare to
arouse some curiosity.
But today, Moscow, Petrourad and
the other |)riu< ij>al cities are thickly
..
■sprinkled with foreigners; daily
trains from the outside bring them
in by the dozens, and they arouse
no more interest than they would in
any other European capital. During
June more than 1,008 foreigners vis
ited Petrograti. and even more, per
haps, came to Moscow. Most all'of
them were business seekers. **
Hotel accommodations in Russia
are still so limited, particularly in
Moscow, that the government has
not yet found it advisable to admit
large numbers of tourists. Every
one must have some legitimate busi
ness reason before he can secure
his visa.
Within a short time, perhaps in
1925, hotel accommodations are to
be improved and It may that Rus
sia's interesting revolt^tlonary scenes
will become a Mecca for tourists.
