HIGHWAY TO TAP
SNANETIA

The building Of = new road Is
usually a rather commonplace AZ
fair, but the highway which 10 be-
inr constructed in swanetia, per
haps the widest, most isolated
and most inaccessible part Of
the Caucasus region, is OF note
worthy importance, writes the
MOSCOW correspondent OF "The
Christian Science Monitor" both
because of the engineering diff
culties which must be solved and
because of its importance for the
inhabitants Of the country, Who
for centuries have lived according
to their primitive customs. shut
off from the outside world by
towering peaks and giant sInourl-
tain ranges. -
Only within recent years the
precarious footpath which led
into Swanetia was made paSsable
for horses. It is believed that the
completion of the road, which has
been started, but has suffered
some delay because Of the neglect
Of the budget authorities last year
70 make the necessary appro'
priation, will ultimately trans
form. SWanetis into a minor
Switzerland, attracting tourists
BY the beauty Of its scenery and
the picturesque costumes and
dwellings Of the Inhabitants, and
producing for the market con.
siderable quantities Of milk and
dairy products.
