Stalin's Front Man, gay and juicy old President Mikhail Kalinin, whom Ambassador Bullitt called "charming." Foreign Minister Maxim Litvinoff whose bright-eyed children Tanya and Mischa convinced nine-year-old Anne Bullitt that "Moscow is swell and the theatres are grand!"

Commissar of Health Mikhail Fedorovich Vladimirsky told the inquisitors emphatically that in the U. S. S. R.† "medical aid is given without payment to all workers and peasants, who form the bulk of the population. For the rest, the desire is to serve all gratuitously but hitherto they have not been included in the general service, the first call being for the workers.

"The American President," cried the Russian President, "acts like an illiterate peasant in the fields waiting for heaven to send him rain! Hoover waits for prosperity...

But Olga Knipper had a miscarriage, and the Chekhov who plays a waiter in this picture is not-as the arrogance of the famous name he uses without modifiers seems to proclaim-Chekhov's son, but Chekhov's nephew Mikhail. It is an earnest but not very adept story of the hatred of privilege that smoldered so long in the hearts of the Russian people. Best sequence: the banknote that Mikhail Chekhov picks up and hides, first in his sock, then under his shirtfront, then in his pocket, and finally...
