Letters

Gentlemen:

Noticed in the newspaper the other day that you had won your case for the right to send your magazine through the mails. I was very glad to see this, for I believe that you are winning a fight not only for yourselves, but for many others who are hampered by unjust censorship. Maybe someday our wonderful American democracy will really catch up with us!

On of the few sincere attempts to deal with: the subject of homosexuality without prejudice, for or against. There is nothing that would lead one into such a life if the inclination were not already there.

anyone. IT CANNOT BE DONE under present laws. Perhaps when a few more court cases shall have been won, defining the rights of homosexuals, this unnatural prohibition can. be lifted. Mr. E's letter in our January issue received a large number of replies from sym pathetic individuals genuinely wanting to be of help, including one gift of a subscription: to him. Unfortunately, we find we no longer have Mr. E's address. If he will write us the subscription can be credited to him. Until then, for him we will thank the generous donor.

Dear Sir:

Before I received ONE I was at the crossroad, not knowing which way to turn. I had planned on seeing a psychiatrist, but I am working my problem out. Once or twice meet with either a fine doctor or a minister and they understand and appreciate ONE. Mr. L. Hot Springs, Ark.

Dear ONE:

The most wonderful news I've heard in a long time that ONE won its case. It must make all you people feel as though your work is not in vain. It will take a long, long time, but I hope that just as in this case, one by one, your aims will be accomplished. Mr. B. Milwaukee, Wis.

Dear Editor:

I know your magazine is not a lonely hearts magazine, but it seems my only hope. I am very unhappy. I'm desperate to write to a lady who will write to me. I am 26 and I don't like men.

Dear Mr. E.

I read your letter in ONE. The Society we are in is a most lonely one. A homosexual has a most difficult time, as you, I and others know and have experienced. Loneliness is found in all walks of life. I'm in my early twenties and often find life depressing and lonely. I understand how hard it is to accept this, but who knows what will happen in the future? There is always a future. I do hope this note will be of some small comfort. You aren't alone when it comes to feeling loneliness. There are hundreds of us in the same predicament. Keeping busy is a help.

Met several gauchos and jockeys. None of them were at all attractive according to our standards. One knew Peron quite well and to substantiate his statement showed me autographed pictures. He said Peron had a weakness for gauchos and one in particular to whom he gave a big herd of cattle and was building a house for him when Eva learned about it. Soon after the gaucho was found stabbed to death.

Buenos Aires is a fabulously beautiful city --6 million all told. But its economy is on the rocks. A friend has a '55 Chevrolet that's all beat up. He's been offered $11,000 for it. A grand steak dinner is $1.25. Mr. D.

Dear friends:

Buenos Aires, Argentina

Your magazine has taken admirable strides and you must suffer from complainers, so I'll be sparing with the trivial, such as, I wish it were a male magazine exclusively; let the lesbians operate their own magazine, and yet ONE owes so much to its female members on the staff, and to some excellent fiction by

women.

I have sifted the grain from the chaff, clipping and filing the stories of merit or
