Dear Hr. Hoover,
Congratu1ation's on your being retained as director
qf the Federal Bureau qf Investigation. Your retention
to head that eztremly important agency will insure its
continuing to be a fair, honest, and eficient bulwark qf
Qemoeracy in our death struggle with communism.
Your disappointment in being blocked in carrying out
your plans by the qficiale over you, lust have been
frustrating in the ilth degree. It is evident that the
authorities over the past years have hanetrung your eforte to r1
the country and the government of the diabolical threat qf
communism.
The inauguration of Preeident-Elect Eisenhower on Jant 20,
will herald the advent of a noral governnent to head this great
country of ours. Thank God you will be a part of it.
Sincerely
