heterosexual inclinations who indulges in homosexual intercourse as a substitution. Nearly all pseudo homosexuals are of sub-normal intelligence; many of them are feeble-minded.
(2) THE INFANTOHOMOSEXUALS are attracted to young boys. It is a much more complicated perversion because not only is the sexual impulse directed to the same sex, but also all the noṛmal associations of a sexual attraction are sacrificed. The infanto-homosexuals can expect to find no sympathy or companionship in the boys they seek AND ARE OFTEN OF THE SAME MENTAL AGE AS THE CHILDREN
..
THEY TRY TO SEDUCE.
The genuine (true) homosexual turns towards adults of his own sex as naturally as a normal man is sexually attracted by a woman as a potential mate and he is no more attracted to a young boy than a heterosexual is attracted to a young girl. In spite, of popular ideas to the contrary, it is rare to find a man who is greatly attracted to both men and boys.
The facts and opinions I have given above are bound to cause ́a great deal of argument, but if they have helped you in any way I believe that they have been well worth the effort.

by ALLAN HELLMAN (Translated from Swedish

Some time ago a West Swedish newspaper carried a notice ancut a gardener who had a homosexual relation with a boy under 18 years of age. The newspaper in question made this illegal act into a forpage news item. A few days later the same paper carried the information that a chauffeur had raped a girl not 16 years old. This news item could be read in some remote place in the back pages.
The undersigned not in touch with the editor and pointed' out to him the injustice of making such a vast difference in the press presentation between two comparably equal illegal acts. The first one being of a less serious nature since it har! occured voluntarily, as compared

CONSIDERATION
to the second, where force admittedly had been used. By singling out so sharply a homosexual act the public was being consequently given the impression that this is a particularly serious crime and furthermore that all homosexuals are criminals. Since this was pointed out many sex crimes of both categories have been committed, yet both are now always given an equal. treatment in this newspaper. All honour is due such an editor]
Many others follow his example! It is true that all editors are not alike, but since an appeal is capable of being effective it would certainly be of no harm if in similar cases our friends would point out the injustice of it to the newspaper in question.
