California bill risks home and morality in wartime aid plan
Elsie Robinson reports on a war wife bearing a child by a nonhusband while her soldier husband fights in the south Pacific.

She calls for laws of mutual tolerance and rejects legislation that would sanction illegitimacy. The piece frames the issue as a test of values during wartime.
