WH These works are fulfilling a vast American need on @ root- subject of such infinite importence to menkind. The lementeble unenlightenment of the everage edu- cated adult concerning the intimate processes of his own genesis is one of the most appalling of the limitations of mo- lern civilized society. This unenlightenment is due for the most part to the fact that for many years there existed a strange prtholosic taboo on the frank scientific studies of the sexual unctions, studies which are of such dominant importance to iety. This sex taboo, an inheritance from en ignorant, super- stitious past, is now carried on only by persons who know nothing about sexual psychology and seem to be laboring under delusions of moral grandeur. During the last century they actually suppressed all truthful books about sexual su jects, making vital knowledge inaccessible even to the cul- tured and intelligent! The tail of society, so to speak, direct- ing the head and brains. But at long last in matters of sexual literature the ead and brains are coming into their own both in Englend end in America; and the tail, in the form of benighted meddlers in scientific books, has been relegated to its proper plece in the anatomy of society. Their activities have been curtailed by our Federal and State Judges who have not only upheld works treating scientifically and edu- cationally of the sexual relations, but encour- aged their dissemination-es @ crying need to counteract the ills due to superstition and lack of knowledge. WH The modern sexologist’s point of view on these vitally important problems hes been ably expressed by Havelock Ellis in the quotation cited above. From the modem theologien’s point of view, the Archbishop of Canterbury declared: “'l would rather have all the risks which come from free discussion of sex then the greater risks we run by a conspiracy of silence.” From the modem, legal point of view of the U. S. Circuit Court of Appeals: “‘It is settled so far as this court is concerned, that works on physiology, medicine, science and sex instruction are not within the statute, though to some extent, and among some persons they may tend to pro- mote lustful though hts."" And from the modern government official's point of view, Dr. Thomas Parran, Surgeon General, United States Public Health Service, declared: “First and fore most emong American handicaps to progress against syphilis, is the widespread belief that nice people don’t talk ebout hilis, nice people don’t have ilis, and nice people jouldn’t do anything about those who have ++. with free discussion forbidden jit has been very difficult to teech people to avoid syphilis” bs Itis the dissemination of this hitherto-censored knowledge at is helping cultured adults in their guidance and instruction the new generations in how to avoid or cure venereal oben how to prevent and solve sex crimes, how to bring about @ happier state of married lovers, and so is making for unimaginable American Race Improvement.
