G-Man Chaffetz declared tha sixty-six per cent of the members of the FBI are graduate attorneys while 16 per cent of the remainder ae graduate accountan:s. He at- tributed much of the success of the organization to the high caliber of fis members, and to the thorough education and special training which they undergo before they be- come full-fledged members of Uncl Sam's principal Jaw enforcems agency. He stated tha! on an aver- age only one person among one thousand applicants meeis all requirements to beccme a memb of the organization “Although the FBI was organiz in 1908 as an investigation under the U.

Department of tice, the public likes to think of Men as being. in oxisience only four or five years,” the speaker con tinued. “Prior to 1924 the organl- gaiion was a political football but In that year with the appointment of J.
