NEW YORK, Aug. 15. (Special.)
In Moscow, nearly a year ago, John
Reed, a reporter primarily and a com
munist 'by a combination of his nature
and the rule of time, died an agonizing-
death, a victim of typhus, over
work and undernourishment. The
manner of hl-s groins, the events that
led up to It, the experiences of this
romantic figure in the history of re
bellion, have remained since then to
Americana a closed book.
Today, however, the World is en
abled ito outline in more or less dtail,
and from a source that is beyond
question as to authority, the last days
of the youn? American whose body
l,es with only five others of the mil
lions who have seen death in Russia
since November, 1917, in the hallowed
grrave acre of the Kremlin, and the
only one to whom, the masters of
Russia have seen fit to do honor by
the erection cf a d'eathless stone and
epitaph.
Regard the communist experiment
in Russia as we may, there is in the
story of John Reed sufficient of ro
manticism, of poetry, of idealism and,
above all. of physical courage to war
rant a popular interest in his life
that will, in the words of Lenin him
self, "increase with time and strength
en the heaj-ts of men, be they moving
forward or standing still."
Reed Reported to Knd.
As Park Row knew John Reed, he
was a repoi ter. As the World's In
formation of his last year, his last
months and his last days would in
dicate, that is how he would have
himself known. For, it is revealed in
the story that has come to this news
paper, his very death was indirectly
due to his great ambition to write
from persorral knowledge a history of
the Russian revolution that would
stand for all time as the authorita
tive document on the subject. As it
is, he was cut off with but a tithe of
his work dione. and the story of Rus
sia as he would have written it, lies
In its material and uncollated shape

Its spiritual form in the Kremlin
graveya rd.
John Reed left New Tork for the
last time late in 1919. He had previ
ously been everywhere a reporter
would want to go. In the war he
had been on a'.I fronts. With Richard
Harding Davis he had covered th
Serbian retreat and with Davis he
had fallen a victim to a kidney plague
that brought both to the operating
table. Davis :on to die. Reed to pull
through. 1-1 e had previously been
with Villa in Mexico. '
Where intensive life was Reed went
And that, probably more than com
munism, took him to Russia after the
revolution of 1917. In that year he
saw government after government
fall and finally saw the rising of the
new Idea of social organization known
now as the soviet form of govern
ment. He srw it through and came
back, writing a book called "The Ten
Days that Shook the World." Today
it is a history textbook in the schools
of Russia by decree of Lenin, ap
proved by the education committee of
the all Russian congress of Soviets.
If Reed knew this he would be happy.
It was tha first of the six volumes he
planned on soviet Russia.
All Privilege Renounced.
When Reed reached Russia on his
last trip he was greeted by Lenin
and his associates in control of the
(rovernment for the heroic and dare
devil figure that he was. Lenin set
off an apartment for him in the
Kremlin for Lenin, above all peo
ple, seemed to appreciate Reed. ' But
the reporter-communist declined. He
said he would ruin himself for the
job he had in mind, and he chose to
sleep and eat rn the poorest work
man's quarter in Moscow.
Reed knew the Russian revolution.
He knew that to wear fur coats and
live in palaces would not endear him
to those who had the economic revo
lution closifst to heart, and he sensed
keenly the spirit of comradeship with
the rank and file that was necessary
to complete understandingsof what it
was he was passing through. So he
renounced the fur coats that might
have been his, he disdained the privi
lege to travel in automobiles that was
offered nlm, and he lived in a
single suit that when he died was a
ma 8a of patches and tears the uni
form of a revolutionist, of a prisoner
in Finland, of a stowaway, of a
spirit unmindful of clothes.
In the winter of 1920, according to
the World's informant. Reed was at
the height of his career, in a spiritual
sense. He had the full confidence of
Lenin and Trotzky, and was a mem
ber of the executive committee of the
communist Internationale, a post in
volving a mass of executive and or
ganizing work and calling for the ex
penditure of every ounce of energy
he possessed and he was a young
man of superlative strength and
push, only 32 years old when he died.
1.1 fe Strenuous One,
He organized sanitary battalions to
fight plagues and filth; he buried
the dead: he wrote daily articles for
newspapers and prepared much cir
cular propaganda; and night after
night he would go to the Kremlin
at Lenin's request and stay until the
break of dawn, advising, planning,
discussing, ever equal to the occa
sions that rose in his path. Never
once, however, did he deviate from
his big main course the collection of
facts and information, the filing of
documents, of papers, the making of
notes, for the job that was to be the
monument to his living days the his
tory of Russia in revolt and recon
struction.
But in the spring of 1920 he got
the news of an indictment, found by
a federal jury in Chicago, charging
him with participation in a left wing
socialist convention that was alleged
to have been in contravention of
certain . American laws. He told
Lenin and the rest that he was com
ing home to face the charge, and as
he did in previous charges against
him. to defeat it. The information
reaching the World is that he was
advised by more than one highly
placed soviet official to Ignore the
indictment and stay in Russia, to
which he is quoted as having re
plied: "I'll take advice from friends or

And he started home by way of
Finland, only to be arrested in Abo
on a charge of smuggling a trunkful
of documents, notes and papers by
which he was to trace the course of
the Russian revolution in book form
so that the world might read. He
had some valuables, too, some gold
and some diamonds, but the r innlsh
authorities accepted a fine for the
possession of these and turned him
loose. They refused, however, to give
up the trunk full of papers.
Grave Illness Contracted.
Be was set out upon the street and
walked for two blocks, when he was
rearrested on no charge and placed
In solitary confinement on raw fish
and water for 12 weeks, during which
time, the World's informant alleges,
the American consul refused to in
tervene, and in which time Reed con
tracted an illness! due to a combina
tion of bad food and the kidney that
had been operated on in Serbia, that
ultimately caused his death.
At the end of 12 weeks he was re
leased but was still deprived of his
documents and possessions. He be
sought the Hsthonlan minister to
facilitate his return passage to Rus
sia and succeeded, reaching Russia
in time to attend the meeting of the
third Internationale, where he Is said
to have electrified the congress by
his eloquence, despite the agonies he
endured and despite a body Bwollen
by the poisonous food of the Abo Jail.
Then, agnaist the advice of his doc
tors, but upon the urgent request of
communist leaders, he went a Baku
to attend the meeting of Russians
and near eastern and middle eastern
representatives where the antagon
isms of centuries were to be wiped
out, and it is recorded that here his
youthful face and spirit, both some
what restored to normal, captured I
the great assemblage and did much
toward effecting the rapproachement
that holds good between the Russian
and the middle and near eastern gov
ernments and peoples today.
Returning to Moscow, Reed fell 111
of the typhus and was taken to a
hospital. His wife, by devious means,
had reached Russia just at this time.
There were no nurses, so his wife
nursed him. He talked of all he had
seen and all he wanted to do. He
was particularly interested, next to
his history, in a comic opera he had
written of the republic of Azerbaijan
as a result of his visit to that terri
tory. Yonnsr Commubt Poet.
He was a poet. Reed, and it meant
something that he should have said
that the lines in this little, satire
were among the best he had written.
He had written plays, too. and not
one-sided, either, for one of them is
understood to have been a satire on
socialism that might be presented
some day. The Provincetown Play
ers for a month presented a satire of
his on the peace conference. Arnold
Daly had enthused over another play
that has never yet been offered to a
producer. But the comic opera on
the republic of Azerbaijan, like the
material for his history of the Rus
sian revolution, is in the trunk in
Abo.
Death by typhus is among the worst
deaths a man may suffer. It is slow
paralysis. The tongue thickens and
becomes mute, an arm and then a leg
is paralyzed. Reed endured these
agonies in complete consciousness.
Then for ten hours he held the hand
of his wife while he died. They put
a new suit on him then, for he was
not to say no, and they laid him in
state in the labor temple, and regi
ments of soldiers assembled, and mul
titudes came, for Reed to Russia was
as much a hero as the mightiest of
Russians. And everyone knew that
Lenine sought his counsel and cher
ished his friendship.

day said, "The crime of it is that in

CHICAGO. Aug. 15.--A hidden ro
mance in the life of W. T. (Big Bill)
Haywood as a result of which the ex
leader of the -Industrial Workers of
the World may inherit a large for
tune, was revealed today by Charles
F. Clyne. district attorney. Haywood
fled to Russia several months ago to
avoid serving a sentence of 20 years
in Leavenworth prison.
Haywood, according to Mr. Clyne,
married Jane Minor in California some
30 years ago. Later, after two chil
dren were born, he was said to have
deserted her. He never obtained a di
vorce, according to Mr. Clyne. Later
he became leader of the "Wobblles,"
which resulted in his arrest and con
viction with other I. W. W. officials
of conspiracy to obstruct the United
States war efforts.
In the meantime Mr. Clyne said he
had been informed, Haywood's father-in-law,
Mr. Minor, amassed a fortune In
Nevada and Arizona which went to
his daughter at the time of his death.
Recently. It was said, the daughter
died near Winnemucca, Nev., leaving
no will. Under the laws of Nevada,
one-third of her estate would go to
her husband.
Mr. Clyne said that he was investi
gating the case with the idea of col
lecting an unpaid $15,000 fine assessed
against Haywood at the time of his
conviction.

WASHINGTON, D. C, Aug. 15. (By
the Associated Press.) The hope of
American officials that the disarma
ment conference will be a diplomatic
conclave -of the first - order was
strengthened today when France in
formed the state department that she
would send Premier Brland at the
head of her delegation of diplomatists.
The decision is expected here to be
followed by similar moves on the
part of the other powers, investing
the gathering with extraordinary sig
nificance and giving it much of the
plenary authority that was pos
sessed by the council of "heada of
states" at Versailles.
The French notification came In
the form of a message from Premier
Briand himself, transmitted through
the American embassy at Paris, say
ing merely that the premier would
take pleasure in personally represent
ing his country at the conference. It
was the first formal acceptance to
be received from any of the invited
nations.
Meantime the administration's prep
aration of its own part in the confer
ence was advanced by a request sent
to congress for an appropriation of
$200,000 as an initial budget to pay
expenses of the American representa
tives and of a secretariat-general.
The estimate worked out by the state
department and the budget bureau
was taken under committee consid
eration immediately in the senate and
probably will receive favorable action
in the near future.
Delegates Pay Their Way.
The sum fixed in the request and
the data accompanying It apparently
disposed .of any expectation that this
government would pay the expenses
of any of the visiting delegations, for
congress was informed specifically
that the money was to be used for the
American delegation and for the
secretariat-general alone. It was In
dtcated that a later appropriation
would be asked should the printing
bill exceed present expectations or
should the conference last more than
two months.
In making the request President'
Harding merely transmitted with his
approval a letter written by Under
Secretary Fletcher of the state de
partment, who has been placed In
charge of physical arrangements for
the conference and who prepared his
estimates after a conference with
Director-General Dawes of the budget
bureau. There was no attempt to
divide the sum Into separate items.
In the senate it is likely that the
requested appropriation will be at
tached to the shipping board appro
priation bill.
News that the French premier
would attend the conference was re
ceived with much satisfaction here,
for there has been a general expecta
tion that should one of the powers de
cide, to send itB premier the o'chers
would do likewise in the interest of
fair representation. It is considered
doubtful, however, whether all of the
invited nations will follow the French
example of announcing any part of
the personnel of their delegations at
the time of formally accepting a piace
in the conference.
Work Will Be Expedited.
Not only will the presence of the
foreign premiers here add greatly to
the weight of. the deliberations, but
it is expected also to be considerable
help in expediting the work of the
conference. In ordinary diplomatic
gatherings much time is consumed
communicating with the home gov
ernments for information and instruc
tions, but with the highest political
authorities ef the various powers
actually on the ground it Is hoped d-e
cisions can be made promptly and
with finality.
The- text of the message from Paris
which was addressed to Secretary
Hughes and signed by Ambassador
Herrick, was as follows:
"Premier Briand authorizes me to
express through you to the president
his appreciation of the invitation to
the Washington conference on No
vember 11, and to say to the president
that he wWl have great pleasure in
attending the conference in person as
head of the French delegation.
Captain Huntington, his Interpreter,
said:
"Italy, seeking only peace and pros
perity, has resumed useful labor.
Kconomlcally, it is returning to nor
mal more quickly than any other Eu
ropean nation. Levying heavy taxes,
it- is at the same time economizing
everywhere, paying its debts. Ten
billion lire of the 14. 000.000. 000-lire
deficit has been paid off In a year.
"Not counting on any indemnity or
reparation, we are trying to pay our
own obligations. If we receive any
indemnity from the enemy, so much
the better, but we are not relying on
such financial help, as is France.
"Our internal conditions are Im
proving. "Scareheads' in American
newspapers about little rows we have
had in Italian cities are misleading.
The fascisti and communists have
clashed, but the communists are far
in the minority. With 9,000,000 of our
people in agricultural pursuits, as
against 1.500,000 in ' industrial work,
stability is assured, for the small land
owners are conservative.
'We have had some strikes, but
nothing like England's mine strike,
or your own labor troubles In West
Virginia.
'The immensity of your country Is
most impressive. ' It is unfortunate
that in restricting immigration you
do not limit newcomers to those will
ing to settle on the land. Instead of
letting them crowd, into big cities.
buca immigrants soon would own
their farms and be of great value to
the nation."

Washington Disavows Report of
Proposed Commission.
TOKIO, Aug. 15. (By the Asso
ciated Press.) Reports from America
that the United States may suggest:
control of China by an international
commission are understood to have
been considered at the meeting of the
Japanese cabinet 'yesterday.
Viscount Uchida, foreign mlnHster,
told members of t'he cabinet, accord
ing to the Yomi Url Shimbu-n, that if
such a suggestion was made, it was
a matter of grave" Importance upon
which Japan must carefully delib
erate. .
Japan is studying the advisablMty
of proposing an. international stand
ing council for the guidance and de
velopment of China, says the Koku
min Shimbun. The work of this coun
cil would be based upon the idea of
the powers' abandonment of spheres
of influence and all other measures,
including extra - ternitoriality, which
are inimical - to China's complete
sovereignty. The unification of North
and South China also would; be sought,
the newspaper asserts.
WASHINGTON, "57 C, Aug. 15. Re
ports from Tokio that a proposal for
control of China by an international
commission might be put forward by
th United States in connection with
the disarmament and far eastern con
ference are not understood by of

ever been put forward, they say, or

thing for the world if it can succeed,
but I anticipate difficulty in having

"For myself, I would be glad to lay

reached this city late today, .the local
chamber of commerce not only gave
hearty welcome to the visitors, but
voiced approval of the 1925 world's
fair and promised support.
Tired and dusty from the trip from
Crater lake, where they passed Sun-
Cay, the members of the party found j
hospitable welcome awaiting them
here.
Various local speakers assured the

l'eels a sense of isolation.
We anticipate deeply the kindly
assistance of Portland during the re

president of the local chamber. "This
aid, I believe, has won for us an
enormous reduction in freight rates.
I merely mention this so that you
may know that we in the Klamath
country are not ungrateful of your ef

Speaking of his plans for the
further development of the Crater

president of the Crater Lake National
Park Hotel company, said that within
a few weeks he would again visit
this city and confer with business
men upon the project, proposing a
programme that will result in making
the southern Oregon scenic wonder
one of the most popular scenic resorts
in America.
Julius L. Meier, president of the

with the refrain "and he lives down

member, but a citizen of the state.
As such he urged them to do their
utmost to further the world's fair.
"Portland has no ax to grind," said
Mr. Meier, "but what we want is for
the state at large to avail itself of
its opportunity. It means that every
community should back up the ex
position in a few years when it Is
held."
Early tomorrow morning the ex
cursionists will leave, for Bend, where
they will be guests of the chamber
of commerce. They will return to
Portland Wednesday.
