"WAR BABIES"
BISHOP OF LONDON DEFENDS THE SOLDIERS. (Reo. June 12, 6.15 p.m.)' London, June 11. The Bishop of London has repudiated with righteous_ indignation a suggestion I that soldiers in training are behaving. ' badly as a body. In many cases, he \ says, they are a • remarkable example of good behaviour to the people where they are billeted. . The cry of "war babies," which had been raised by the newspapers, had turned out to be a great delusion—an exploded bubble. The women generally behaved well. Young and giddy girls, excited by the presence of so many khaki-clad men, caused mischief in some camps. This problem was serious at I the commencement of the war. His suggestion was some scheme of preven- ' tion by the enlistment of women pat- ' rols. 'They would act with tact, judgment, and sympathy.—"Times" and | Sydney "Sim" Services.
