The subject of this year's na tional collegiate debate is whether the United States should extend diplomatic recognition to the Com munist government of China. The Lobo hud quoted Dr. Wayne C. Eubank, president of Tau Kappa Alpha, honorary debating fra ternity, as saying college debaters had been warned they may have their names included in FBI "raw files" for upholding the question in debates. "I can assure you that the FBI has no interest whatsoever in col lege debates as such," Hoover wrote in the letter to be published today in the Lobo.

Hoover said "I was Indeed sur prised to see this story. I do wish you would have: communicated with me first because it leaves the false impression that the FBI is desirous of obtaining the names of 'persons debating this question. "This certainly Is not true." Eubank told a reporter that Rep. Robeson ID-Va) had written a let ter to a Duke University debater on the subject. "Robeson made no mention of the FBI." Eubank said, "but he asked for the names of those on the National Debating Council and the member of the Duke Univer sity faculty responsible for the de hating team." Eubank said Robeson wrote a Duke debater: "I certainly hope you will not undertake to debate the positive position of this subject as quota lions from your statements may embarrass vou for the rest of your life." Eubank termed Robeson's letter "an abridgement of free soeech by a man sworn to defend the Constitution, a document guaran teeing our freedoms." In a television broadcast Nov. 23, the Democratic congressman said the letter was written primar ily through an interest In the stu dent and he termed the resulting controversy a tempest in a teapot. mere was no attempt at intimi dation or implied threat In the let ter, Robeson added. A secondary purpose of the let ter, he continued, was to find out, in view of this country's fixed po sition on Red China, who had se lected the debate topic agd why. Eubank, read Hoover's letter to LawneHoe. said: - Mr. Hoover's declaration indi cates thnt he has a very clear conception of the functions of de bates and discussions, in our col leges and universities. It is the type of-statement that anv think ing citizen would expect from his high offire. I trust that Mr. Hoover's state ment will allay any fears students may have regarding debating the ainrmative side of the proposition."
