ONCE OVER
What America thinks? One out of every three Americans favors birth control as a means to check overpopulation a recent "What America Thinks" poll showed.
A cross section of the public was asked the question: "It is estimated that, at the present rate of population growth, the U.S. population in 800 years will leave only 1 sq. ft. of land for each person. What will have to be done to avoid this obviously impossible situation?"
The answers in percentages were:
Practice birth control, voluntarily or manditorily..
33.9
Let future generations solve
problem
14.8
Wars, atom bombs, will take care of it.
12.1
Migrations to moon, planets
10.9
God or nature will solve problem
6.5
Don't believe it will happen
3.3
Past predictions wrong, why not this ...
1.6
Miscellaneous
4.9 19.1
No opinion
The total of 107.1 is because some persons gave more than one answer. Here is a sample of some of the reasons for the opinions. given. A New Jersey schoolteacher said "Assuming nuclear warfare will be eliminated and all diseases conquered, birth control will be mandatory." The wife of a Tennessee grocery owner said "The country should develop a pill that will control births." An Ohio newspaper district manager, "What do I care what happens in 800 years?" A Rhode Island machinist, "Keep on taxing people to death and there won't be many left." An air crew chief from Texas, "We can build large buildings that can house half a million people to the sq. mile." A New York state barber, "The Govt. will no doubt have to set up another committee." A New York architect said, "Birth control! It's disgusting
to read of all those twins, triplets and quads born."
No one mentioned what ONE has many times urged in its pages, "Encourage homosexuality."
ODDMENTS
Another cheapie debuts. If the big-city newsstands burgeon with slimy mags that promise cheap thrills for your money, who is to blame when another one comes along? The public of course. The public that buys them, but why anyone would buy the latest of these rags, USA; Inside Report, we will never know.
Its twisted title, trades on a wellknown one, just as its twisted ideas trade on the reader's good nature. A silly mish-mash of half-truths and truths perverted, it ranges over such surefire sex-hexes as "The Molester," "The Rapist," "Thrill Killer," "The Homosexual," lumping the whole under the heading, "The Sex Psychopath."
Drew Johnson, Editor of this degenerate pulp with the slick cover, snidely maneuvers his argument from implication to insinuation, with a weather eye out for those damning truths that would open him to libel. Yet how leeringly he mouths. the stale lies that the male homosexual's "psychosis holds the threat of murder," or that the lesbian "is capable of chilling violence, viciousness, destruction and moral degradation."
His completely dishonest and repeated linking of deviation with crime should be stopped-by law. Did we feel this soggy little mind deserved the dignity of legal notice we would be tempted to squash it, once and for all. But why soil our hands? Or feet? We extend to USA; Inside Report our heartiest wishes for quick failure and an early demise.
