Inside Detroit:
BY JACK PICKERING

YOU are spending more Of
= your evenings at home now.
You've had a change OF heart
and don't worship General Mac
Arthur as you used to. You
haven't quite decided whether
to try to keep the children from
talking and thinking in terms
OF war, or 10 give up the strug-
gle and let them.
And all the time you know
perfectly well that Junior long
since has lost the sweet inno-
cence OF Little Boy Blue, and is
playing soldier with all CHASTITY
modern improvements. including
gas masks, bayonets and bloody
bandages.
