Sirs:

Your mag has been coming to me for the past seven and a half years and I cannot tell you how greatly helped I have been by reading its contents. When I am able I will send a contribution to you all at One, Inc., and trust that it will further (if only in a very small way) the work that you are all doing to promote a better understanding of we folk.

In Time, March 5, there was a story on a proposition of the "new morality" or "ethics based on love, rather than law." Nine hundred clergymen and students gathered at Harvard Divinity School, the more progressive feeling that "no sexual relationship should be absolutely condemned by the church."

We have a responsibility to behave in a manner which is constructive; positive rather than negative attitudes must be fostered. It is our backyard to clean up, before accepting public responsibility as a group. We as individuals must build an "ethics of love" and adhere to our set principles.

I would say that generally there is mutual consent rather than outright seduction in homosexual affairs. I have never seen coercion used, and I have commingled with homosexuals for many years. If anything, I think the reverse it true-that heterosexual affairs often thrive on seduction. But I do not suggest that heterosexuality is an anti-social force.

Sirs:

I am getting darned tired of experts telling me that even if I am happy, deliriously happy, I don't really know what I'm talking about, and I am basically unhappy. Doesn't the reverse apply-all those happy little morons aren't really happy either? Everybody is unhappy! Mr. G.

I couldn't help notice Mr. H's letter (February ONE) on body building magazines. I am of the very strong belief that these young boys that pose for these physique magazines are advertising themselves to the homosexual, and probably could be homosexual themselves. Mr. T.

Alcoholics Anonymous, Suicides Anonymous, The Salvation Army. What do these organizations have in common with the Homophile Movement? Nothing. And that's my point. They are all dedicated to the proposition that no matter how degenerate an individual may be, he is worthy of assistance. Dope addicts, derelicts, prostitutes, in other words the dregs of society can go to them for that priceless "last chance." I have no argument with the excellent job being done by the Homophile Movement in bringing in bringing our "case" before the courts. But what about the dregs of our society? There is a homosexual skid row in every major city and closing our eyes to the fact will not make it vanish. What are you doing about it?
