death in 1865 was her sex discovered.

Those are but a few of the many brief accounts scattered throughout countless reference books. In recent years a oertain relaxation of a strict moral code has allowed a few people to mention transvestism in women without severe consuro; however, for the most part it is still a relatively ignorod subject. Since 1900 the practice of total transvestism in women appears to bo waning, probably because of the greater license allowed in ordinary feminine dress coupled with broader occupational opportunities for women. Probably no authority will ever conclusively determine the reason for sex disguise boyond those cases compelled by overt homosexuality.

HOMOSEXUAL LAW REFORM SOCIETY

The Homosexual Law Reform Society, a group in England working for passage of the Wolfendon Report, has made much progress in the past eight months of its existence.

In a report published in London, the group points out that before it came into boing there "was a very real danger that the Wolfenden recommendations might have boon quietly forgotten."

Since that time they have formed a Committee of more than 100 distinguished people; set up a full time office at a central address in London to propagate its campaign; circularized every member of Parliament more than once, and published a number of pamphlets.

The Society has also given advice to a number of people who have requested it, and has received inquiries from some 2,000 people from England and abroad.

Money is still needed. Chocks should be made out to the Homosexual Law Reform Society and sent to the Rev. A. Hallidio Smith at 904, Chester Road, Erdington, Birmingham 24, England. It is only through donations that the Society can continue the vital work it is doing, work which will certainly benefit us in America.
