HE MADE ADVANCES

Prattville, Ala.: Convict Willie Griffin Moye, 23, on trial in brutal 1954 murder of exAlabama State Industrial Relations Department employee, James Cleveland Stamp, whose body was found near state highway. Deeply stabbed in several places, he'd been run over twice afterward by car. Moye charged with murder, & confessed, after other convicts reported him saying he'd gotten thrill from stabbing. During trial, blond, crewcut youth not put on stand because Defense felt his long record of burglary, larceny, assault & escape would look bad. He made no denial of the killing, tho the plea was "not guilty" & "not guilty by reason of insanity." Said Stamp picked him up (in car borrowed from Stamp's brother-in-law) so they could pull robbery, but drove past appointed place & began "making advances." Fight ensued & Moye said he drew knife (borrowed from his father) to protect self against pipe wielded by Stamp. Moye admitted being drunk. After stabbing Stamp several times, he said he left, came back with two buddies to see if Stamp was dead. Then they ditched car. Defense made much of Coroner's testimony death came from being crushed by car, not from stabbing. Prosecution made lurid description of Moye's alleged thrillreaction to stabbing. Two other convicts (Prosecution called one Stamp's lover) testified to Stamp's reputation as pervert. Other witnesses spoke of his good repute. During trial, the lanky, jaunty youth, wearing green baseball cap, loud argyles & black suede shoes with prison uniform, was frequently comforted by family, friends & well-wishers. He showed no remorse, felt nervous sitting in court," in front of all those people," but enjoyed telling

his story privately to anyone. A chain smoker, Moye had been dismissed from Navy for extreme nervousness. His father, a long distance truck driver, disconsolately told reporters it was all his fault for not being home more to look after son, Found guilty, Moye drew 20 years.

OTHER LANDS

Nina Epton, reporting on swains in Spain for lurid British paper, NEWS OF THE WORLD, says, ". . Spanish boys and girls mature much earlier than their British counterparts. Some Spanish fathers fear that their sons. may develop homosexual tendencies if they are repressed at this stage. They also believe repression may be bad for the boys' health. . . So they aren't shocked if their sons go off to brothels while they are still in their teens. Women, equally passionate by nature, are taught to control themselves, as every good woman should,"

Ronald Clark in THE PEOPLE (London) complains that for himself at least, Swedish experiment in sexfreedom & education has taken all the mystery out of that three-letter word. Admitting that "Sweden has removed many morbid fears & worries about sexual development from minds of its adolescents," he still opines "the essentially romantic nation is emotionally starved," adding, "perhaps I'm just a typically prudish product of the 'decadent West," goes on to say: "I deplore the open acceptance of homosexuality and the deliberate campaign which is at present in full swing to reduce the age of homosexual consent. Fortunately, many healthy Swedes share my abhorrence of those gentlemen who openly wear a badge which flaunts their unnatural inclinations. And equally fortunately there are thousands who find the mincing-voiced chairman of the 'National League for Sex Equality' just as revolting as I did. For Hr. Ove Ahlstrom is a man who openly boasts of the League's 400membership figure for Stockholm alone. And, as he was careful to explain, Lesbians are also eligible for membership in what I regard as his weird and horrifying League of the
