There are John Reed clubs in several of the cities of the United States; Julian Street, who used to know him well, wrote a long article about him in the Saturday Evening Post of September 13, 1930, under the title "A Soviet Saint"; and the Oregon Journal for February 5, 1931, carried the following news correspondence from the Russian capital:
Moscow, Feb. 5.—(U.P.)—The American Journalist, John Reed, who won a place among the Bolshevik immortals, will be the principal character portrayed in a grand opera being rehearsed here for its premiere. The opera, called John Reed, will show the American journalist's participation in the Russian revolution, as he described his experiences in his book Ten Days That Shook the World. The music was written by the youthful Klementi Korchmarev, with a libretto by Peter Barnardsky. Other Americans who will be portrayed in this historical opera include Reed's widow, Louise Bryant. . . .
A poem of 67 lines entitled "Elegies Over John Reed", by Marya Zaturensky, originally published in Poetry in 1924, is given in the chapter "Oregon Authors About Each Other".
