With that, the Russians decided to cool it and canceled Hines's scheduled appearances in Moscow, Leningrad and Alma-Ata, rerouting him to the industrial city of Krasnodar (pop. 312,000) and the Black Sea resorts of Batumi (82,000) and Sukhumi (70,000). The State Department protested the "arbitrary changes," but the Soviets, obviously afraid that Fatha would have too big an impact in the great cities, were adamant.

...latest trip seemed no exception. Traveling on a 30-day tourist visa, the professor spent most of his time touring the capitals of Soviet Asia, including Tashkent, Samarkand and Alma Ata. Back in Moscow, he stopped off for a drink at the apartment of U.S. Minister-Counselor Walter J. Stoessel. From there, an embassy chauffeur drove Barghoorn back to the Hotel Metropole at about 7:15 p.m. on Oct. 31.
