bigamy. The prison physical disclosed it was definitely a woman, and the law says nothing about bigamy by a woman marrying two other women. The second "wife," caused the arrest, gave the officials the story that she had no idea her "husband" was a woman. Well, at least that's her official story. Come to think of it, what else COULD she say?

ONE HEARS . . .

That LA postoffice, very likely others too, is now cannibalizing its own: locally, Postal Inspector James G. Hudson is reported as grilling postoffice employees with dark intimations that he has plenty on them and tries to get them to finger other employees with accusations of being homosexual. Worst is that some employees apparently panic and do just that. So, the socalled "security risk" racket goes on and on, far beyond the bounds of any conceivable considerations of national security. Some day someone is going to have to spell it out real plain to compulsive homosexual-hunters-out that psychiatrists long ago identified the urge with latent or suppressed homosexuality within the hunters themselves. Maybe then the paid snoopers just might watch their steps a bit more carefully, lest their employers (we, the public) start giving them queer looks too. Dirty part of the whole deal is that it is all very hush-hush. The "homosexual trackers' never can stand the honest light of decent public opinion shining upon their works. That wouldn't be at all fair, you know. Now the question is, who higher-up is back of the whole performance, for these James G. Hudson-level guys around the country never would stick their necks out all on their little own, would they? If you detect a funny smell these days around your own

HANDWRITING & HOMOSEXUALITY

Back in 1956 (August-September) a good many thought the Magazine was stooping pretty low by publishing а full-page ad on grapho-analysis, signed by the late M. N. Bunker, who had visited our offices a number of times. Now along comes a two-column story in NEWSWEEK (August 6), and there have been others elsewhere, hinting that it just could be that grapho-analysis, or other handwriting examinations, will supplement, even replace, the far-famed Rorschach tests as a revealer of personality traits. Could be. Anyhow, Bunker was an interesting man to talk to and wrote extensively, as well as understandingly, on homosexuality.
