    would reect such reports. Vance wanted to know if we could give any furtheridentication inasmuch as the Records Division of the Department had reportedto him they had no record on Paul Robeson. He was advised that thi was somew

    strange inasmuchas it was definitely known that the Department must have*considerable references to Robeson, however, thata check would be made to see
