WASHINGTON, May i4.-Pick a
small boy these days and ask him
who, Of all people IN the world, he
wants to be like, and 10 to l he will
reply:
u. Edgar Hoover"
Hoover's name today probably is
one of the best known in the coun-
try. The reason for this, as any
small boy can tell you, is his spec
tacular drive against public enemies
climaxed With raids which Melted
the nations four remaining crini-
nails in the public enemy class.
Thus the names of Karpis, Camp
bell, Hahan and Robinson have been
added to the list of bad men who
have fallen before the weapon of
scientific crime-detection coupled
with utter fearlessness. John Dillin-
ger, Charles pretty Boy Floyd,
George machine Gum Kelly and a
host Of others had gone before, each
of them the victim of j. Edgar
Hoover.
He's Baseball Fan
Despite the fame that his &C
complishments have brought, only a
handful of people know anything
about him beyond the fact that he
heads the Justice Departments Bu-
reau of Investigation. His name
probably has made more headlines
than any other except President
Roosevelt but those who know that
he Is a stamp and antique collector,
that he Is baseball fan and an eX-
pert fisherman could be assembled
in small drawing room.
On first meeting this man who
directs the hard-hitting, far-flung
"G-Men," one characteristic that
stands out above all others is his
efficient manner. A youthful, eff
cient business executive? Yes. A de-
tective-a man who gumshoes
around, chasing criminals? Never
Mr.. Hoover is of medium height,
inclined to stoutness, sharp-featured
with coal-black curly hair. He
speaks with sharp, clipped, staccato
phrases. He dresses like magazine
fashion plate.
A Native Washingtonian!
The boss Oman Is one of that
rarest of species, a native Washing
tonian. He was born here Jan. l,
1895, attended Washington public
schools and was graduated from
Washington's red-brick Central High
School in 1918. He got his first job
as a clerk in the Congressional
Library.
One of the most rigid require
mentS which Mr.. Hoover has set up
for men aspiring to join the Bureau
of Investigation as special agents is
that they must be lawyers. Many
people wonder why a man must be
a lawyer to be a detective.
Mr.. Hoover cites the answer from
his own experience. He gives credit
for many of his innovations in the
bureau to the fact he was trained
as lawyer.
Enthusiastic About Job
He won his law degree in 1916, by
studying nights at George Wash
ington University Law School while
he worked in the library. He holds
that law training invaluable. In
1924, with the bureau still minor
unit engaged solely in investigative
work, famed William j. Burns re-
signed as director.
The then Attorney General, John
G.. Sargent, chose Hoover to take
over the reins in the bureau. Visions
of a day when the bureau would be
