Index criteria and it falls within such criteria.-
Subject&#39;s activity continues to fall within CATEGORY III because
of his long time close contact with CPUSA leaders. He was honored by the GP

The Wednesday, July 21, 1976 issue of the "Daily
World", on page 6, contained an article entitled "To the UN:
Declare Paul Robeson birth date Day of International Peace
and Friendship". The article, datelined "Toronto", reflected,
in part, that the Paul Robeson Commemorative Committee  PRCC!,
recently formed in Toronto, has called upon the Secretary Genr
eral of the United Nations, Kurt Naldheim, to place before the
United Nations the proposal that the birthdate of Paul Robeson
 April 9!, be officially proclaimed as "the Paul Robeson day of
International Peace and Friendship"-
The "Daily World" is an east coast communist news-//PHPQ I-&#39;0 _#3 . &#39; WWThe late city edition of "The New York Times", dated
December 23, l963, reported that_Paul Robeson left
the United States on July 10, 1958, after an eight-
year legal fight and a Supreme Court ruling to obtain
a passport. 3
According to the article, Paul Robeson once said he R
loved "the Soviet People more than any other nation
Q
Most of the uestions directed at Robeson uponv his arrival in New York, New York on December 22,
1963, were answered by his wife who told reporters

because of their suffering and sacrifices for us,
the Negro people, the progressive people, the people
of the future in this world",
