...rates. Though Kosygin would like to change that, it is obvious that it will be 15 or 20 years before Russia can develop a mass-production automobile industry and the necessary complex of gas stations, repair shops and spare-part systems to go along with it. Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko, for one, was not willing to wait that long: last week he bought a $17,000 Lincoln Continental executive limousine, complete with built-in bar and TV console...

But not the Soviet Union, which is perhaps just the way le grand Charles wants things this week.
