Edgar Hoover, head of the Federal Bureau of Investigation and lithe country’s No. 1 crime fighter, calls on the Christian Church to j help banish juvenile delinquency. Mr. Hoover . -rtide was prepared ! at the request of "The Rural Churchman,” a paper published by the • Episcopal Church in Colorado. jjaataL* ~„ J. Edgar Hoover, Head of Federal Bureau Os Investigation, Calls Church To Curb Crime Says Church Attendance and Like Oil and Water, Do Not Mix Unchurched Boys and Girls Are the Juvenile Delinquents Almost Without Exception Disintegration of Home Greatest Cause of Youthful Crime At the request of Mrs. E. T. Boyd, editor of The Rural Church man, published by the Episcopal Diocese of Colorado, J. Edgar Hoover, head of the FBI, expressed his opinions on the problem of crime prevention, and emphasized that churches have an important part to play in this task. “The churches are in the front trenches of America’s crime pre vention crusade,” Mr. Hoover said. ‘Never before has there been such h challenging need for aggres sive, inspirational leadership among the boys and girls of this country. At the present time only half the youth of America are being reached by the churches, and of those who are being reached, entirely too many are merely ‘on the rolls.’ This failure to make contact with the bulk of tomorrow’s citizens is producing a fertile field for future juvenile crime. If America is to remain a Christian nation devoted to the fundamental ideals of the Bea titudes, the Ten Commandments and the Golden Rule, then more adults must assume the responsibility of preparing young Americans for vi rile, dynamic Christian living. “Church attendance is a vital fac tor in the Nation’s crime prevention program. While serving as Director of the Federal Bureau of Investiga tion during the past 20 years, I have been profoundly im Dressed with the fact that the ‘church-going-people’ are the most substantial group of citizens in the Nation.

The value of the church in filling many of these needs is obvious. “Through experience we of the FBI have also observed that those who are active in some church are also the people who seem most interested in i establishing a genuine ‘home’ for their children. The greatest single factor in crime causation among ! juveniles today is the disintegration of the American home. We need homes where children feel inalienably attached to the family circle, a place where questions are answered, sym pathy and affection received and fre- OLD Mr. BOSTON MINT FLAVOR fP GIN _s£ - 1i \ PROOF t mJ § t irt t i L. rTVBBBBB BB wj BERNE BROTHERS DISTILLERIES, IRC.

We need homes where chil dren learn respect for their parents, respect for law, respect for God and the religious principles which must be perpetuated if America is to sur vive as a great nation. , “In both church and home children must be made to understand their in dividual responsibility for personal conduct. “It has become imperative," said Mr. Hoover in closing, “that every American arouse himself to the urg ent necessity of instituting in each community a wide variety of activi ties, programs and policies designed to counteract the present trend. Re spect for law, personal liberty, life and property, must be preached, taught and practiced. There must be a veritable crusade against crime. The churches have a vital task in making contact with our youth, in re deeming and restoring the American home, in providing inspirational re ligious leadership, to make America the law-abiding, God-fearing nation our forefathers designed it to be.” Santa’s Bag Full Os Gifts— Gifts Made From Empty Bags Christmas gifts are in the bag this year—in the cotton bag, that is! Present seekers can stop th'eir worry ing, for gifts galore are right in the kitchen.

A 100- pound sack will make a child’s cuddy doll, a pert apron, or four dainty guest towels.
