' The New fork edition of the "Pittsburgh Courier", issue of
September 10, 19149, reported that the Civil Rights Congress has protested
against alleged police participation in the Peekekill riot and that the
Civil Rights Congress has announced that a delegation "would march on

;. ' This article further reflected that PAUL ROBEBON has demanded ,
a complete investigation -Lllll the prosecution of the Eu-Elm: i, both
in Iestchester County and in the entire State of New Iork. , p _ .
The records of the United States District Court, Southern District
of New York, reflected that on September 20, 19b9, PAUL ROBESON had appeared
as a defense witness in the case entitled, U. S. vs. IILLILH Z. FOSTER, et
a1." l - e . t
- The records further reflected that ROBESOH in his testimony had
briefly related hie personal history and had stated that he knew all the
defendants. However, when the defense was asked if ROBESOH was a character
witness, the defense had advised that he was not. The record reflected
that the defense, after objections had been sustained to their questioning
of ROBESON, had stated that it was impossible to obtain from ROBESOH the
testimony that he had been called to give and therefore that they wished
to withdraw him as a witness. This had been consented to by Judge IIEDINA
and ROBESOH had been excused as a witness.
The "Daily Iorker", issue of September 22, 19b9, reported that A
PAUL ROBESON, Chairman of the Council on lfriean lffairs will leave Septem-

people's fight for economic security, civil rights and full equality." '1'he_
tour was arranged and sponsored by the Council on Lfrioan Affairs.
The "Daily Worker", issue of October 5, 191,9, reported that '
PAUL ROBESON "blasted the gag rule by Judge HAROLD R. HEDIHA against the -1
appearance of BENJAMIN DAVIS as his om attorney in the trial of the -
National Communist leaders at Foley Square." The article further reported
that ROBESON had charged "that they know they cannot answer for the dia- '
crimination and persecution of the Negro people so they will not let any-
one bring it into court." It is further reflected in this issue of the _
"Daily Iorker" that PAUL ROBESOH had returned from a tour of major cities .
in the United States and that he had been well received in Loo Angelo: and"

people that while some hoodlums trie kill her husband in Peekskill, she
felt certain that thousands of loyal progressive Americans would take good care
oi him. She assured the people that the mob in Psekshill really didn't wish to
kill her husband but rather wanted to silence hi-ll, and that she pointed out -
that the only way this would be accomplished would be to kill him. Infprmantl
reported that applause led by ROBERT--£AHEu'ITZ, a Communist Party functional!. _- 7
oi District , GP='JS§., who test$.fi% at the Hes York trial oi the eleven 35'
members oi the Nstiona1_CP Board, follofsed this remark. ; ;-- Y J e all
llrs. ROBESON also spoke of her recent visit to China, and she stated
that she and the other delegates who accompanied her wondered hon they would --
be received in China after American bombs had been dropped from American planes e
killing thousands of Chinese, She pointed out that she and the other delegates
were cheered Iherever they went. She stated that she was unable to understand
this apparent inconsistency and mde inquiries on the matter and found that the
answer iroa the Ghiness people !h§ that aiany people had cone to China to exploit
the people there while this delegation came as friends. She stated that the
people's government in China. had won the war and that the United States appeared
rather-foolish by not extending recognition to the new Chinse government. She -
added the prediction that this would come to pass within the next month. - S__ . a .4 , -_. _ . . - _ .-,- - -. 1 -
She stated that the Chinese women had done a great deal for the new
government and consequently they were now treated like women and not like cattle.
She stated that schools were appearing throughout China and all China was learning
to read. She declared that some delegates on Africa attended the cmference in
China. She spoke at some length on the African situation. She pointed out that
delegates from both Africa and India reported that colonialism was dead and
buried as the people were tired oi being exploited. She stated that in India -
the people were being exploited by their own people just as the situation had tr
existed in China thusly, she said, the people in India would have to liberate j'aZ»_Q.~'.
themselves Just as the people oi China are liberating themselves. -- ' _
On several occasions she stated that the negro was not a citizen in the
United States and therefore he camot be called a disloyal citizen if he is not .
in fact a citizen. 3he also referred to the "1-rcn urtainl on several occasions
insinuating that this phrase was a piece oi fiction built up in the United states.
' 1 Subj eeepemuee out that the delegatesM'1'ron'.*the United states
impressed in all the countries where they had traveled by the fact that the _
people were all working toward peace. She stated that in Russia they talked _ -'
peace, and when there they asked them it they are not preparing for war ";-»f¥';-_--,'»¢'= _'

- The Reds realize the great medium of Televiison,_ and I think it is the patriotic duty or the BroadcastingStations to refuse time to anyone with Red connections.
The cries or Free Speech" will go up of course,but Free Speech to destroy American ideals should notbe permitted,
If only the F.B.I. could have a free hand, thiscountry would again gain the repsect of the world. if
