UNCLE SAM'S NEW SLEUTHS MUST BE 1 REAL GENTLEMEN Department of Justice Is Turned Upside Down Since Exposure. WASHINGTON, March 20.—Agitation for restoring the Department of Justice to a position of public trust and confidence, started a year ago by disclosures during the Senate investigation of former Attorney General Daugherty, is producing results. The nine months elapsing since the hearings were concluded witnessed the ousting of many agents, unfitted either by education or char* acter to hold positions in the government's principal detective organization,' and the filling of most of their places by college men. Some 180 changes in personnel have taken place, resulting in a net reduction of seventy employes. Last week fifteen special agents finished a three-weeks training course at the New York office before being assigned. All were well educated, twelve being college graduates. | Hoover Is the Boss F John Edgar Hoover, youthful successor to William J. Burns as head of the Bureau of Investigation, believes in getting results by systematic methods. One of the first things he did when made acting head of the bureau was to reduce the number bf field offices from fiftytwo to thirty-eight and install a uniform filing and reporting system in every office. “By using the new system. he explained, “it is possible to transfer an agent from Philadelphia to Fan Francisco and have him perfectly at home the next day.” Under the old order of things agents in charge of offices distant from Washington were virtually marooned. Often they waited two or three years before seeing any one from headquarters. Hoover has appointed three Inspectors as his personal representatives whose duty it Is to visit every office in their district at least once a month. By a system of special reports these inspectors keep Hoover apprised up to the minute as to the ability, attitude and activities of every special agent in the department. Wants Intelligent Men Hoover believes that convictions are the real test of the bureau efficiency. Under the old system “suspects” were often arrested en masse, among them necessarily scores of innocent people. “I am impressing every man in Khe service that I don’t care a rap .bout getting indictments that won’t stand up in court,” Hoover stated today. “Shadowing” of persons not suspected of violation of Federal statutes won't be tolerated. Hoover has told his men, and the days of ransacking senators’ desks and tapping telephone wires are a thing of the past. “I want intelligent agents who can converse with a bank president just as readily as they can Investigate a white slave case and will stand for no third degree methods,” Hoover stated.
