This month's AANR Bulletin features a blurb regarding "The Magna Carta of Nudism", which was first published in the November 1933 edition of "The Nudist".
"Under proper safeguards and for the public weal we demand:
1. The elimination from our statute books of all legislation that makes social nudism an illegal thing.
2. The setting aside of at least some part of our public beaches, parks, and picnic grounds and recreation centers where nudists may freely live the natural life in the open.
3. The constitutional right of a free press to print text and unaltered pictures which decently and naturally represent nudism as it actually is being lived and practiced."
Items #1 and #3 are now a done deal. Progress has been made on item #2 though much remains to be done.
