Edgar Hoover, Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, states is his creed of life. It is so good, honest, and so definitely what all Americans should follow that we gave it here: “Believe in God and the inherent dignity of man. Trust in our democratic prin ciples, and be confident that truth will overcome the menace of dic tatorship which today seeks to destroy our freedoms. Strive al ways to do your best. Make your life purposeful. If each of us in a spirit of self-dedication, will do his. share, we can create a better world. That must be the spirit of 1954—the spirit of love, humil ity and justice.” U.D.C. Spring Convention To Be Saturday The Spring conference for the Ridge District will be held in Aik en on Saturday.
