sioner Joseph A. L. Errigo, "that a man who has had police training

should stoop so low as to be connected with the Klan." But Tangents' own correspondent asserts Pryor's chief merit as a vice-squad man was his ability to lure and entrap homosexuals-an occupation Dr Alvarez and Tangents and many other decent citizens regard as pretty low

SAN

MD.

FRANCISCO-The Living Church, an Episcopal Journal, reported on October 10, "A score of pickets demonstrated at Grace Cathedral on Sunday

in protest

against an action of the council of the diocese of California which, they charged, was discriminatory against the Rev Canon Robert W Cromey

Canon Cromey had served as diocesan director of urban work

in depressed neighborhoods" and "he has been prominent in the campaign of some San Francisco clergy for what they call fairer treatment of homosexuals. Some church leaders, said Canon Cromey, oppose his championship of equal treatment for homosexuals as 'going against the teachings of God'" He issued this statement "My participation in such issues as homosexuality rocked the boat of the religious establishment, caused money to be lost to the diocese and led some people to imagine that I had besmirched the image of what the Church ought to be." Retorted Suffragan Bishop Richard Millard

"Nobody's trying to eliminate Bob. Like any of the other 200 clergymen in the diocese, he is perfectly free to speak out on social issues." But Cromey is no longer director of urban work, nor has he been made di rector of Christian social relations, a post he had been expected to be asked to fill.

NORTH WOOLWICH, ENGLAND Pub keeper Daniel Cousins has lost his license and been fined 35 pounds plus 50 guineas court costs as a result of police testimony that "powdered and painted men, wearing earrings and carrying handbags, infested his pub." Said sailors Michael Crookshank and Geoffrey Draper, "We were sitting on the floor and acting like Port Said traders and arguing about prices, but we were not drunk." Said Dr Richard Bell, who with his wife was at the club when the raid took place, "There was a liveliness about the place. I was amazed that I didn't see any signs of drunkenness.' Said tavern owner Cousins, "I have never seen any handbags. I have perhaps seen them with blond hair and vivid clothing. I have never noticed make-up."

Said his wife "There are 'queers' who use the public house, but I've never seen them behaving in a disorderly manner" Asked how "do you find people who are 'queers'?" Cousins answered, "Extremely well behaved." He further said that there were "four to six in every bar" Will there always be an England?
