People in the Soviet Union are justly proud of the sumptuous architecture of the Moscow Subway, the finest in the world, named after L.M. Kagnarich Marble and precious stones, parcetain and steel were used i the decorative scheme of the stations. Special street were caquired not only for rapid and high class construction underground. Special steels are light in weight and artistic. The Mayakovsky Square station is an eye-opener even to those who are acclaimed to the luxurious style of our subway. The stainless steel columns of this subterranean palace, fluted and shining like burnished silver set off with stone of rare beauty and exquisite pictorial mosaics form a worthy monument to the best and most talented poet of our time V. V. Mayakovsky. December 22, 1950.
