Resting comfortably in his flag. draped coffin J. Edgar Hoover must have smiled a wee bit at the culogies passed his way from the ranks of Washington. It's unfortunate such favorable comments can't be afforded a worthy man when he's still breath- ing rather than when he's stiff as a board resting flat on his back in a box. During the \evening years\ of his F. B.. directorship Mr. Hoover re- ceived some super slam bangs from every angle of Washington and many of the nation's self-styled humani- tarians who resented JEG's so-called \nosey\ operations which, so they say, infringed on their rights under the Constitution. It was not until his death that the critics of Mr. Hoover were more at ease realizing that the champion of justice, the man who would nail anyone to the wall who in- fringed upon law-abiding citizens, was dead to this world. No longer would the chief of the world's most dedicated and thorough investigative agency be around to have his agents check people, places and things. Hoover's unexpected death thrilled the Mafia, the goons of the under- world and those who quote the Con- stitution as they seek to destroy it. Most newspaper people whether they work for large or small publica- - The F. B. |. tions had a special fondness for Mr. Hoover. A letter directed to the Di- rector secking information or counsel wasn't answered by some deputy or special assistant. It received his per- sonal attention and was not signed with a rubber stamp. He never minced words. He gave direct and authorative answers which today in Washington is indeed a rarity. Being human Mr. Hoover had his faults. However, they were far out- weighed by his attributes which some day some level headed historian will record publicly for posterity. His successor will have some mighty big shoes to fill and certainly all Americans should wish him well. The institution Hoover built has no peer despite what you may hear as vocalized or written by some of his dismissed - or retired - disgruntled agents. Let .us hope the leadership of the Federal Bureau of Investigation won't be a rubber stamp for Washington's leadership which, incidentally, re- flects an attitude all too often that it knows more than God! If there are any scoundrels in Heaven, despite the requirements at the Pearly Gates, may they be on their guard. J. Edgar Hoover is among the ranks. One's luck is very often deter- mined by the way he treats others. , People who claim they are 'self-made' give their wives and the Lord very little credit, Page - 4 THE GRANVILLE SENTINEL .

To permit such attempts to damage the reputa- tion of our government by law is, of course, a necesary condition of democracy.

Recognition of its power for good is not merely the experience of our nearly two centuries of democratic government. The struggle to insure the rights of the individual his social organizations by written decree has roots which reach far back into antiquity. The authors of our Constitution were mindful of this legacy when they drafted that historic document. Nor was the importance of a definitive rule of law lost to the general public of our infant Nation. Worn by the ravages of the Revolutionary War, our expectant forefathers appealed for and got amendments to the Constitution which formed the Bill of Rights-specific guarantees of law that responded to the heart of their grievances. Together the Constitution and the Bill of Rights gave birth to our rule of law and it is the flesh and ’ Poultney Woman CRANVILLE SENTINEL - Published Thursdays at 6 North Street, Granville, NY, 12832 MacArther H.
