That Will Be 1 ext "Should We Recognize the New | Russia?" will be the subject for dis- cussion at the Chicago Forum in the Olympic theatre Sunday afternoon, | February 14, Fred A. Moore, director jof the Forum announced this week. The speaker will be Capt. Paxton Hib- ben of New York. Captain Hibben served in the Ameri- can diplomatic service for eight years and in that capacity was present at the first Russian revolution in 1905. From 1914 to 1917 he was war correspondent for Collier's Weekly and the Associated Press. In 1917 and 1918 he served with the 86th Division and is now a captain in the United States army re- serve corps. During the last five years he has been identified with American relief work in Russia. He has just returned from a two- months' visit in Russia during which time he traveled over 5,000 miles through various parts of the country and was able to have very close con- tacts with Chicherin, Trotzky and oth- er Russian leaders, giving him posses- sion of the most recent valuable in- formation on conditions in the Soviet Republic. Every possible effort was made to find a competent person in Chicago to debate against the recognition of Rus- sia by the United States government, Captain Hibben taking the opposite side. The Speakers Bureau of the As- sociation of Commerce and other rep- resentative persons and organizations, after a real search, were unable to produce such a debater. Therefore the Forum presents Captain Hibben to give his information on conditions in Russia.
