growl that syphilis was a disease and therefore not comparable to homosexuality. Mr. Russell retorted that it was a debater's right to cast aspersions if he wanted to. Regarding Lyn's discussion of the Biblical characters he stated, "Love doesn't necessarily connote sex."
In the summary of the debate, Dr. Thompson said that he had been appalled at the wording of the resolution, but that the speakers had come out where one does come out: homosexuality creates a better adjustment for those who are homosexuals and is a fulfillment of their inherent natures.
ONE AND THE SUPREME COURT
Eric Julber, attorney, presented a history of the legal aspects of the printing of ONE Magazine which culminated in the January Supreme Court victory, at the banquet held in the California Room of the New Clark Hotel in Los Angeles.
Mr. Julber told how he was introduced to Dale Jennings, editor of ONE Magazine 3 years ago, by a mutual friend 33 and became the attorney for ONE, Inc. The legal problems of printing a homosexual magazine were very great as there was no law in this area for the depiction of homosexuality in literature, except for a very adverse opinion given in a lower court on the book "Well of Loneliness" back in the 20s. Considering this fact, they decided that the best they could do would be to lay down their own rules based on a knowledge of the intense prejudico in this area. They decided they couldn't print depictions of sexual acts between people of the same sex, even though this is standard practice today in heterosexual magazines and literature.
The magazines were printed and sent out, many by second class mail. Many times the second class subscribers did not receive their copies for two and three weeks after they had been mailed. It appeared that there was great doubt in the Los Angeles Postmaster's mind that these magazines were not "obscene" material, and copies were regularly sent back to Washington, D.C., to the Post Office
