AT MONTREAL Practically every writer who has commented on the Montreal Exposition—the 1967 world's fair—agrees it; is one of history’s great expositions. Most ’bbservers agree the U. S. exhibit building is imaginative, z but its exhibits badly lacking. The stress is on such things as pop art and movie stars and except for the space exploration section unlikely to overly impress visitors. The Soviet exhibit, on the contrary, shows great improvement over the Soviet exhibit at Brussells in 1958. The Soviets have utilized this approach at Montreal and in addition have stressed scientific advances and artistic achievement. The United States has stressed cowboy gear, pop art, old-time rural life, movie stars.

dolls, etc. Despite the disappointment thinking Americans have expressed about contents of the U. S. exhibit, practically everyone agrees the Montreal fair is one of the great events of the century and since it will be open on- ; ly one year <in contrast to the con- - troversial two-year New York fair which was a fiancial failure) those wishing to see a world’s fair very much like that at Brussells—after which it has been patterned—should make their plans. The theme of the fair is man andhis environment —a subject which should interest citizens of all nations, the overwhelming majority of whom desire to live in peace with their I neighbors and meet at world's fairs, ■ not on battlefields.
