WARNING FOR YOUTH by J. Edgar Hoover I ’ v e s p e n t 40 -years, my whole ca­ reer, dealing with the seamier side of life — robbery, kidnapping, gang­ sterism and murder.

If you know of any pornographic pictures or literature being passed around, notify your parents immedi­ ately. Obscene reading matter is a favorite habit of the degenerate. If the au-
