There are literally thousands of guilt-ridden, self-rejecting, discouraged homosexuals -all needlessly so that must somehow be reached and helped to self-acceptance. I am glad to have a small part in this important assignment and only wish I had known of something of the kind thirty-five or forty years ago (I am nearly seventy) for life would have been so much better.
Gentlemen:
Mr. B.

Thank you for this opportunity to become a "Friend of ONE." I will always support your organization, not only for the greater understanding you bring to so many, but also for your valiant stand for freedom of the press, finally settled by the highest court in land.

Dear Sirs:
I wonder why we do not find ONE with other publications in the "Kiosques" in Canada. I requested it here and the sellers have answered me they cannot get it, nor do we see ONE in Montreal. Is it a conspiracy or prohibition of the courts? I shall command very soon exemplaires of KEVAL.

Never having read it before the April issue I was very enlightened to find a magazine written for and by homosexuals. It seems that it has never been on sale openly in Canada, from where I have just come. If it had been I am sure it would have given many more people besides myself a better understanding.
Dear Friends:

I have just received a "Notice of Seizure" from our highly esteemed Department of Customs, notifying me that ONE has been seized, being deemed a "prohibited import." I am not taking this lying down, though. individuals in the right rarely achieve a victory over a government department, with its infinite resources.
Our Customs can seize and open anything. Australia, the land of the free! I knew that Australian law was well on the side of bureaucrats favoring a police state, but had no idea it extended this far. We don't need to go to the USSR to experience life in a police state apparently-we've got it here right now!

a new sort of publication... HOMOPHILE STUDIES puts the study of homosexuality into a serious, unbiased context. Its pages explore all sides of the question, seeking relationships and meaning, critically examining the history and the literature, the science and the "pseudo-science."
We can't promise easy reading, but we can promise stimulating reading for those hoping to find out what homosexuality really is and how it fits into the scheme of things.
