Wallis Warfield Simp- son, with her smart clothes and southern accent, was exactly the type that has always made good in London society.
 The Simpsons began to go out to first nights" and night clubs. The Simpsons met Michael Arlen and Noel Coward. The Simpsons met other writers, artists, actors and actresses. And if Mrs. Simp- son outshone her husband at these Bohemian gatherings, wasn't that the American way?
 Ernest may have been tired after the hard day at the office,' a bit bored, but he was always on hand. Wallis was never tired. No matter how late - or how early-the party lasted, she was ready to go on to 8 new place, to think up audacious new stunts. Londoners thought it was "so amusing and 'tso American"
 Wallis began to buy her gowns from Schiaparelli. Ernest rented the Expansion Square apartment and she had it decorated by a fashionable Paris firm. Swiftly surely the young Simpsons made the climb in London society, leap ing barriers that usually are un-

facts are clear She made trip abroad with her aunt, Mrs. D. I Buchanan Merryman of Washing ton, and she became acquainted with MT. and Mrs. Ernest Simp- son of New York.
 1 It was the former Mary Kirk of Baltimore, by this time Mrs. Jacques Ruffray of New York, who introduced Wallis to the Simpsons. The same Mary Kirk who had gone to Arundel school with Wallis, who had made her debut the same night, and who had been 8 bridesmaid at Wallis marriage to Lieutenant Spencer.
 Ernest Simpson, son of MT. and Mrs. Ernest L. Simpson of 50 West 86th street, New York, was employed by the ship-chartering firm of Simpson, Spine and Young. His wife was the former Dorothea Parsons Dechert, a great grand daughter of former Chief Justice of Massachusetts.
 The Simpsons marriage was des- tined to be short-lived. Business affairs took Ernest Simpson to Lon- don where, first as an attorney and then as partner, he represented the -chartering firm which to- day he and his father are sole con- trollers.
 WALLIS SPENCER, in London
 w with her aunt, met Ernest Simpson again. He was an ideal companion for dinner engage mentS and trips to the theater Simpson is handsome-"far hand soiner than King Edward VIII, says Baltimorean who has met them both. Simpson today is 3t years old. As Harvard under. graduate, in 1913, he had enlisted in the British Coldstream Guards and six months later received g second lieutenant's commission. Af- terward he returned to Harvard and was graduated.
 Some of those evenings in Lon- don must have been romantic Ernest Simpson, though he hac made up his mind to live perma. nently in England, evidently hac nothing but admiration for tho American divorcee, Wallis Spen- cer.

that winter, and the next year went to California, where Lieuten- ant Spencer was sent to establish 8 naval flying school.
 Those were exciting days, with the United States formally declar- ing 8 state of warfare and joining the Allies against Germany; with young men enrolling for service, swarming to camps and training schools; with bands playing, flags flying and parades marching; with Liberty Loan and Red Cross Roll Calls; with women volun- teering to knit sweaters, roll bandages and pack comfort kits. BALTIMORE friends heard less D and less of Mrs. Earl Spencer in the next few years. Relatives in Baltimore say the trouble be- tween the Spencers arose because the Lieutenant had "a temper" l" However this may be, they did not get the information from Wal lis who has never been one to air domestic affairs.
 It was not until 1925 that an open rift came. Then, at Warren ton, Va, in compliance with the Virginia law requiring persons seeking a divorce to have lived within the state for one year, Wallis Spencer established legal residence.
 In July, 1927, the bill of com- plaint was filed, including depo- sitions of several witnesses to show that, on June 19, 1922, Spen- cer deserted his wife and had con- tributed nothing to her support thereafter. An uncontested di- vorce was granted on these grounds.
 Lieutenant Spencer is now Lieut.. Commander Spencer, sta tioned at San Diego, Cal. He has been remarried and divorced.

 Osburn, who was serving with the U. s. forces in the expedition against Pancho Villa, tells about it now:
 ''It was about as hot day as I've ever known 116 in the shade. A courier who had gone for the mail handed me that let ter and, of course, I recognized Wallis writing. I opened the let ter, read it. Under the circum- stances anything would have been 8 blow. I can't recall, after all these years, just how much it add ed to my discomfort"
 The engagement was announced by Wallis Warfield's mother, Mrs. John Freeman Rasin, Sept. 16, 1916, and a Baltimore newspaper chronicled the event as "an en- gagement of unusual interest to society,""
 There were showers and lunch cons and dinners for the bride to-be. For the first time in Wallis Warfields life, plans were made without thought of scrimping or saving. It wasn't to be preten- tious wedding but one that was as staetly and beautiful as a girl could wish.
 1.-THE ceremony took place at Il Christ Protestant Episcopal church, Nov. 8, 1916, at 6:30 D. m. The bride came down the aisle on the arm of her uncle, s. Davies Warfield. She wore a gown of white panne velvet, made with a court train, the bodice elaborately embroidered in pearls and the skirt falling over petticoat of old family lace.
 After the ceremony there was a reception at the Stafford Hotel. Later Lieutenant Spencer and his bride set off for a honeymoon at White Sulphur Springs and Allan tic City.
 It must have been, for time, at least, happy marriage. The Spencers remained at Pensacola

ing seemed Of no concern whatever.
Judging by what was said, one would
think that there is no limit to the
benefcence of political control, espe-
cially in the utility field.
This pressure to regulate private
enterprise more minutely. to break
up large-Scale concerns, and even in
some cases to supplant them with
publicly owned enterprises is becom-
ing so far-reaching that. unless there
is let-up. all phases of industry will
shortly feel the heavy hand of gov
eminent control. Agriculture. COM
.mercial banking, common carriers.
manufacturing. labor. and interna-
tional trade are all threatened. to say
nothing of the conduct of purely in
dividual affairs.
1t has been known for years. OF
course. that businesses can be owned
and operated by government. They
can be publicly owned and leased to
private enterprise. They can be pri-
vately owned and rented to the gov
eminent. Or. the ownership and op-
Grafton can be left entirely in private
hands.
There is. however. no information
available concerning the kind and
amount of public direction which
would be most useful in particular
instances. Likewise, there is no means
of weighing in advance the conse-
quences of certain types of industrial
control. 1t is. therefore. little short of
ridiculous for political planners" to
jump to the conclusion that there is
something magical in the words.
