Epstein, Far Eastern Newsman, to Address John Reed Gathering

Israel Epstein, a far eastern correspondent for ten years, will talk on "The Unfinished Revolution in China" at an open meeting sponsored by the John Reed Society Monday evening at 8 o'clock in Emerson D.

Author of a recent book on the same subject, Epstein was attached to the Office of War Information in Chungking during part of the war, and was one of the first correspondents to get into North China after it had been blockaded for five years.

Before joining the OWI in 1942, he worked for the United Press in North China and later for the New York Times, and the Time and Life bureaus in that section of the East.

Robert Bellah '48, summer chairman of the John Reed Society, will act as moderator during a question period following Epstein's talk. Another meeting of as yet undecided nature will be held sometime in August, he said.
