As noted at the beginning of Part I of my discussion, in the September 1950 Number of the REVIEW, the question of the economic life of countries in Russia's orbit is of tremendous significance to all those interested in the future of the world economy, as well as to those interested more particularly in foreign trade or business operations abroad. Accordingly, I have attempted to present today's picture of the economic life of Poland, Czechoslovakia, and Hungary. Those three countries may be considered typical of the Eastern Bloc as a whole, and I know them particularly well as the result of firsthand observation abroad and personal interviews with their people and government officials in 1950 and previous years.
