Congratulations on the progress of the magazine. We sincerely wish you the best of success in this publication effort. The program of social adjustment and integration desperately needs such a medium for its expression of principles and progress. The anticipated high quality and tone of the material to be published is, indeed, heartening to these of us who are struggling for an effective means of communication of the educative and enlightening findings of the sciences regarding human sexuality.

I am grateful to know that more publications are forthcoming and soon hope that people will be as used to us and respect us as a rather necessary commodity...I remember when the word airplane terrified people and now it is as commonplace and respected as a train.

Enclosed find. $5.00 for subscription. I want you to know that I think that it is wonderful for you to start publication of your magazine.

Review Editor:

This is being written as a protest....remove my name from your mailing list..The unethical method that you must resort to in order to force yourself upon potential subscribers is both to be deplored and pitied. It merely indicates the desperatness of your position. I am not sympathetic to your socalled aims or objectives; please be intelligent enough to realize that. I realize, further, that sensationalistic material may be obtained at any good, commercial news stand, Of course, I do not expect to receive further correspondence from you or any of your affiliates. You are welcome to preach your evangelism elsewhere...Unfraternally yours. -R.F., Maryland
