Moscow Russians are not taking kindly to Premier Khrushchev's campaign to pro mote corn as human food. Russians usually turn up their noses at cornflakes. Their idea of a good breakfast is a heaping plate of hot sausages, potatoes and cabbage covered with thick gravy. The gravy is sopped up with four or five slices of white bread not cornbread! Khrushchev's argument is that the Americans eat it and they love it. Hubert M.
