This information-is being brought to the Bureau'sattention for its interest in the matter in the latter caption,although it is felt that the information appears to relate
to a welcome home reception for DU BOIS rather than to
pertain to the CPs capitalization on the presentation of the
Lenin Peace Prize to DU BOIS. -
It would appear from the above information and that
previously furnished to the Bureau that at this point the
CP anticipates a reception or welcome home reception for D BOIS
upon his return to the US-and at a later date a separate
proceeding for the actual presentation of the Lenin Peace
Frize. »l
The former estimate forthe submission of a report
in this matter did not allow sufficient time and it is now
estimated that the report will be completed and submitted
by June 39, 1959.

"However, sooner or later,c0mnon sense will get
the upper hand. I hope to live to this happy moment."
An article by LYLLIAN DuBOI3, devoted to his im-
pressions of his trips to the Soviet Union is published below.
92l _;| u-bf n' "n
Yhe growth 0? the Soviet Tnion literally went on
under my own eyes: I visited the F335 in 1926, l936, 1949
and an here at present. The duration of my visits fluctuated
between one week up to a month and rore.
After writinp this, I felt the contradiction of
mv statement. It is impossible to become acouainted with
any one country in a month or even in a year. This is
particularly applicable to a vast country such as yours,
which, in addition, is constantly moving ahead and with
such headlong speed, that it takes 0ne's breath away.
Of course, much depends on the knowledge about the country
possessed by a visitor, upon his disposition and prejudices.
I do not know the Russian language because I was born in
the middle of the nineteenth century when even some Russians
preferred to speak French. however, I had definite advantages
because of my Negro origin. I felt deep sympathy for the
Russian peasants, partially liberated from slavery simultaneoady
with the liberation of the American Negroes. I know perfectly
well what it means to be a slave.
I came tc the Soviet Union in l926, knowing only
a little of Russian history of the period of tsarism. I
knew comparatively little about socialism and had no idea
whatsoever of Marxism. bhen I was a student, I did not
have at occasion to read @AH@ 433. evertheless, I saw
people in Xronshtadt, Leninprad and Toscou: in Gorhv, Jiev
and Cdessa,whom.I understood. Conditions of their li?e uere

"wait a moment!" I used to erclaim: "The war

N"iernnpe, but not in Russia, they answered me.
Here I saw for the first time with my own eyes
the grievous consequences of a civil war through which the
Soviet Union had passed and which they tried to picture
in the Ehited States as anarchy and aimless destruction.
Acainst the general background of ruins, nevertheless,
I saw a tendency which excited me; in proportion to a degree
as its purpose became clear to me. I saw the beginning of
bold plans of creation of a national system of public education.

I thought how American Hegroes could achieve a
similar suste" of planning and felt a desire to become
acquainted with the works of KARL HQRX.
Zen ueaT3had passed before I had an opportunity
again to visit the soviet Union. Rumors of great variety
reached us in the Ihited States regarding the fate of Soviet
experiment. he heard about famine among peasants and about
the struggle against kulahs and against treason. Some
sensational reports came in,many of which I believed. The
true picture of that was happening then in Russia became
clear to me only after I became acquainted with the book
by SEYEE3 and EALN both phonetic!.

In 1936, passing by the Trans-Siberian Railroad,
I was studying the F392 for ten days attentively and from
variors points of view. The train was going very slowly
and made long stops at the stations. Ihis huge, almost
boundless country, with its poverty and wealth, but above
all,nith its resolution to build socialism was opening in
front of ts. I saw Eoscow, which was going through the
first period of the great reconstruction. My way was going
through Kazan and Omsk, through the Ural mountains, through
the great Siberian steppes and Baykal. I saw the flares
of actories working in order to transform the Soviet in-
dustry. I had an opportunity to discuss questions of
socialism. The guide in our car told me hou the state
provided an eiucgticn for him. It also provided education
for his brothers and sisters and showed concern for his
parents.
I returnei home through China and Japan, circum-
navigating in this wan the entire world. In tuo rears a ter
my return,the uorld was again gripoed by war. The Eouiet
Fnion defended the world from Pitlerism.

ii-§f-'~ PiIt was necessary to prevent another act of a
nilitary'folly from happening and I joined my voice to
the 600 inerican leaders of art and science who gathered
in New IL.k in larch 1949, at a Peace Congress. The entire
world was in solidarity with this congress and the Soviet
Union in particular, which sent in its! outstanding leaders
fer participating in it.
This congress was subjected to attacks, some of
the most disgusting attacks against civilization known in
the modern world. It was abused and reviled. Some of the
outstanding leaders became victims of insults and the majority
of them had to retreat. The results were sad. However, when
in the same year, 1949, Peace Congress was convened in Paris,
I hastened to take part in it. This was the greatest gathering
reflecting the spiritual enthusiasm of mankind. Hg hopes grew
and, when in the end of I949, the Soviet Union invited 25
Americans to come to.Hoscow and to take part in the work of
the All-Union Conference in Defense of Peace, I accepted this
offe r.
Thus, I saw your country for the third time.
I remember how I told the Soviet people about sincere striving
for peace in America. From hopes and doubts of 1926, through
the presentiments of l936, I came in l949 to a belief into the
ultimate triumph of communism not only in Russia but throughout
the world. The face of almost every man met by me in the
Soviet Union radiated hope.
American authorities started legal proceedings
against me ytr my struggle in favor of_peace. After I
returned home, they brought the formal charges against me
and only the protest of the civilized world saved me from
prisons However, in the course of the nest ? years, I was
deprive: cf the right to leave the country. Ihen, in 1958,
the Supreme Court of the United States declared that our
Jepaitment oj State has no legal right to deprive citizens
of foreign passports, I and my wife, SHIRLEY GRAAMA5
immediately took advantage of this.

Thus, I visited the Soviet Union for the fourth
time. I saw people who were sure of themselves and calm.
I -saw how 30 year-old hopes are being carried out in reality.
I was particuladyimpressed by one small detail.
I locked out of a hotel window at the Red Square after half
a million people passed through it. lhere was not a single
scrap of paper in the square. This was not simply a result
of work of municipal employees. It was a result qf
feeling of responsibility of the socialist people who felt
that the Red Square was their property and that all were
obliged to take care of its cleanliness. If half a million
people would go in demonstration along the streets qf hww
fork, a week will be required in order to clean the rubbish
left by them.
But it is not only this. lhe population of the
Soviet Union is delivered from cares which oppress an American:
How will he live when he gets old? How will he get medical
attention when he gets ill? How to provide education for
his children,for the cost of education is growing,not by days
but by hours? How can he permit himself to take a vacation
when every penny is needed in the hone? A Soviet citizen
knows that the state protects him in all these problems.
Many Americans inquire: How does the state
know that every citizen perfonms his duty and works as hard
as though he were threatened with poverty? The government,
they say, is dealing with human beings who are selfish in
their nature. lhe answer to this question is simple; Ihe
Soviet Union achieved unprecedented successes in the field
of re-education of its citizens into a disciplined servants
of all people and not of a handful of the chosen ones.
Such a discipline, to its considerable degree is
not forced from above and not brought in from the outside,
It is organically inherent in the citizens of the USSR. It
is seljbdiscipline. Of course, in the USSR too there are
still people who think only of themselves. Also there are
criminals. However, I do not know any other country where
the number of selfhsacrificing citizens, patriots is so
great. _

This is, of course, my personal opinion not
basedupon official statistical data. But behind it stands
the experience of my travels throughout the world. I openly
admit my pregudice. It is the rarest opportunity to be in a
country and not to be subjected to insults because of one's
racial origin and to enjoy respect for the things which one
tried to accomplish. I am prejudicedin favor of the Soviet
Union. My prejudice is based upon the things I saw and
experienced. Mbny Soviet people belong to the white race,
However, there are no racial prejudices in the Soviet Union,
nor racial hatred characteristic of the Anglo-Saxon
countries in their relations with the world of the colored
people.
I and my wife SHIRLEY GRAHAM were granted the
honor of talking with the Chairman of the Council of
Ministers of the USSR, N. S. KHRUSHCHEV. we devoted the
greater part of our two-hour talk to the discussion of problems
of the colored people. I was telling about what has
happened in America in the last 40 years and N. S. KHRUSHCHEV
listened to me with great attention and sympathy. I
asked him about the attitude of the Soviet Union toward
Africa, meaning by this not the alms or problems of defense
but the field of cooperation. I_prqposed that the Soviet
Academy of Sciences joined with the African scientists in
the cause of the study of Africa, particularly in culture
and history. I could never achieve such cooperation in '
America and seldom met with interest toward it in Iestern
Europe. Fozoezrer, N. S. KHRUSHCHEV quickly and with enthusiasm
ofjered his aid in this cause.
Is left the Kremlin filled with most pleasant
hopes.

DU BOIS as American Negro scientist, writer and public - '

HIKITA KHRUSHCHEV. - '
The International Lenin Peace Prize Committee
was headed by one DHETRY SKOBELESYN, who announced
the prize winners. Soviet News printed the following
with respect to DU BOIS' award: "Speaking of Dr. illiam
DuBois, Academician Skobeltsyn pointed out that he had
been taking an active part in the peace lovement for 10
years and his many-sided activity had been closely associated
with the struggle for peace and with the national liberation
movement of the oppressed peoples.
f "William DuBois,'said Skobeltsyn, is passionately
and consistently exposing the imperialist policy of the
United States and other powers, coming out against the
cold war, for freedom and independence of the colonial
peoples, and for science to be used exclusively in the
interests of progress and higher living standards for the
peoples.
uois, a courageous fighter for peace and
friendship among the peoples, although he is 91 years old,"
is full of energy and a desire to continue the struggle for
peace and the happiness of the peoples with even greater H 1vigour.'" - .v - "- ,'§ c I

Broadcast text of '1-"ravds' article Iry Uillisn Du Bois:
Europeans. and especially the imabitants of Eastern Europe, are somewhat
anxious about the position or Iegroes or persons or Iegro origin in the USA. They
hear that Iiegro slaves were liberated in 1863 and later became citizens enJoying social
and political equality. they also hear about widespread lynching, murder and mob
violence. The ltegroes continue their struggle for equal rights with the lrhitea. Ii
one was to believe newspaper reports, these have been basically achieved, notably after
the Supreme Court decision allowing Negroes to attend schools for Ihite children. US
inhabitants of various colours or skin and oi various levels of education, descendants
of former Black slaves. have often convinced the Europeans that at home they engog
complete equality with smite citizens; by way at conrmation they have referred to
coloured statesmen and even holders or the llobel Prise. But the events in Little Rock
have revealed the presence in the USA of a degree of racial hatred unprecedented in any
civilised country. llhat is the truth? - Europeans ask-
'l'he facts correspond with reality in both oases. Iegro slavery has been
abolished in the USA by law. However, st least 5,000,000 US inhabitants or Negro
origin ere still outcast slaves living in povertm The majority or BS Iegroes can
read and write, but millions oi them are as yet illiterate. They are being pushed
on to the path or crime and poverty by the system of private capitalism and by racial
hatred or Hhite workers competing with them. In tact, the high wages oi part of the
Unite workers are partially paid by the money underpaid to Iegro workers. Glass
ditrerences are developing among the Iegro population itself. On the one hand, there
is a group of rich Ilegro ezploiters, on the other - the basses of the exploited -
Bhites and Negroes. About l0 per cent of the Negro population ct New York are
businessmen and specialists earning over 5.000 dollars e year. On the other hand,
50 per cent oi this population live on the brink of poverty.
For a long time the leading 'l'Us did not admit Iegro workers. However,
should be noted that these Hegroes are under the influence or the reactionary ledership

for the presentation ceremonies. She said that the Chairm

ILPPC was an international organization. She advised that
this meant that it was possible for representatives from the
ILPPC in a country other than the Soviet Union to handle the
presentation of the ILPP to DU BOIS,but she had no information
indicating that would be done. She advised that she had no
