Hello Fellers:

Haven't seen a report in ONE recently on your financial status, but presume you are still somewhere in the seven thousand dollar hole, so can probably use some extra money, which I enclose. What is the score dollarwise now? Best wishes for your continued

Success.

You hit the figure about on the nose, although we haven't dared to look at the total lately. Thanks for your many contributions to the Corporation Coffers; also for the artistic color photography.

Hi Fellows!

In the past year I have secured a few subscribers for ONE and think it would be a good idea if you asked each member to just get one more subscriber for this year. This would help our cause and give us more power, as well as greater coverage for all the wonderful material you publish each month. The more we expose this work, the faster we will advance our cause for equal rights under the law.

I pass my copies of ONE on to others who are interested and have set a goal of twelve new subscribers this year. It would be a good idea for members to return books they order from you, once they have read them. These could then be resold, or used in other ways. Keep up the good work, we love you all.

Dear ONE:

I have found great comfort and much knowledge of the feelings of others and myself in the Magazine. One suggestion I would like to make is to have a small monthly spot for definitions of words or terms that might be encountered in reading the Magazine, or elsewhere. I have seen many words used regarding Gay Life that would confuse or scare a young person. Let's help them, not scare them.

Dear Friends:

Two of us here have conducted a grassroots survey with the help of a girl who works in a large magazine shop. She has been asking each Gay person if they have ever read a copy of ONE or subscribed to it. Nine out of ten have heard of it but thought it had gone out of business, or had been closed by police. All of them said they would like to read a copy. Only three, out of around fifty asked, now subscribe. Of the rest, half would like to subscribe; the other half were afraid to, for the usual reasons.

I have contacted four persons who said they would like to help, after reading your quarterly report in ONE Confidential. I am certain that we can do something to help. Mr. R.

We have thoroughly enjoyed ONE for the past year. It is a monthly delight. Though sometimes controversial, the only thing to be said is, "We Amaze Me!"
