In September and October 1935, Mr. Lewis L. Lorwin, Economic Adviser, International Labour Office, formerly with the Brookings Institution, Washington, D. C., and Mr. A. Abramson, Member of the General Information Section, International Labour Office, had the opportunity of visiting the U.S.S.R. This article is a record of some of the information which they gathered and of the observations made during this visit. The Review offers this article to its readers in view of the interest in economic and social development in the Soviet Union. The article is not intended to give a comprehensive view of conditions in the Soviet Union, but merely an account of some of the striking changes now taking place. It is of course to be regarded as the expression of the personal views of the writers .
