Edgar Hoover, director ot the federal
bureau of Investigation, aa "good
medicine" for youthful extortionist
Hoover, who previously has advo
cated "better understanding" be

Utes are agonized by extortion letters,
for they cannot be sura the threats
won't be carried out, nor can they tell
what form of trageery Is Impending
"Youthful extortionists should not
be condoned," he continued feeling
ly. "They should be punlshod prompt

attempts in Justice department files

"Mrs. Shirley Temple" If she wanted
"to keep Shirley." G-men said they
traced the letter to a mlld-mannar-ed,
16-year-old school boy In Atlanta.
