The Nome daily nugget., 1936-12-10

LONDON, Dec. lU, - Premler Stanley Baldwin summoned the English Parliament-The House of Commons and The House of Lords together this morning and announced he would describe to the members the series of events leading up to the present situation which has eliminated in the abdication of King Ed ward VIII.
 Speaks of Leading Events
 He commenced his address by referring to the period early in August, when he and King Ed ward had their first conference regarding the intentions of the King to marry Mrs. Wallis Simp- son, repeating the details of each of the many conferences from that time until the present date.
 Left King Last Night
 T left King Edward Tuesday night, after attempting to diss- uade him from his course of ac- ton, in a very dismal frame of mind. We parted the best of friends, shaking hands with one another and wishing each other the best that life could hold,' V declared Baldwin, in voice strongly touced with emotion.
 He reminded his audience of the sterling traits and qualities of the King and stated Edward was and had been the greatest of all the Monarchs because of his wide range of knowledge with his people at home, as well as abroad.
 Brought Up To Be Ruler
 "He had that wisdom of ex- perience and knowledge of gov ernment affairs that was so lack ing in other kings of past cen- turies, and had fitted himself for the position of leader of the the greatest empire in history a position which would be most useful for the commoner whom he was in perfect sympathy with, in their trying times of need and depression, all of whom were de- voted to him."
 Subjects Are Grieved
 Baldwin said that there was not a British subject in England or any part of the Dominions but what wished King Edward to remain their ruler, that all were pained to hear of his ab- dication in favor of his brother the Duke of York.
 Obey His Decrees
 ''Now that the King has told us of his desires and wishes, it is up to us to follow those wish es and abide by his decree in ab. dicatmg the throne, and to com ply in a gentlemanly and orderly manner, in a way that the Roy al family and its precedents may may be carried on without in- terruption," Baldwin declared.

Raleigh. April 16.-Dr. Ralph w.

good success with this plan, it was re-

ers, holds a meeting of from II to 10
of his supporters and in the course
of the meeting, after the usual pep
speeches and sales talks, tries to get
every persons present to buy one of
the Mcdonald "baby bonds" at from
81 to $25 each, in order that each may
become a paid-up bond-holder in the
McDonald-for -Governor Corporation.
Then an effort is made to get each
person who has purchased a Melon
aid "baby bond" to agree to go into
his immediate community, get from IL
to Is of his friends together, form
a McDona -for-Governor club and get
each one of these to buy some Nc
Donald bonds and to sell still more
bonds.
$50 far this plan has been working
very effectively, since every person
who buys bond feels that he then
has a financial interest in the cam
paign, or that he has been a sucker
and hence has the desire to get some
of his friends with the same bait"

Justice ClarkSon
Assails Tonissen
!, AS a Foreigner

In TIE Sir walter Hotel.
Raleigh, April 16.-The tongue-lash-
Ing which Justice Heriot Garrison of
the State Supreme Court gave Ed
Tonissen, candidate for the Democra-
tic nomination for the State senate in
the lobby Of the Sir Walter hotel here
this week, following the meeting of
the board OF trustees of the United
Dry Forces, is going to rebound to the
benefit OF Tonissen, most observers
here agree. The belief is that Justice
Clarkson, who told Tonissen that 1--WE
don't want you down here" and called
him a foreigner" is opposed to TOMS
sens candidacy for the senate from
Mecklenburg county because he is
running on a wet platform and is de-
finitely in favor of state or county II
$, Quor control instead of statewide pro-
- hibition. Justice Clarkson for years
e. has been one Of the strongest advo-
:, Gates of Statewide prohibition.
50 Tonissen, who was standing in the
lobby talking with Clyde Stancil, of
Charlotte, heard Justice Clarkson who
{: came by and started criticizing TOMS
- sen for running for the State Senate
from Mecklanburg county because he
is not a native of North Carolina and
: referred to him as a foreigner" &C
- cording to those who heard the ex-
change Of words. Tonissen told Judge
= Clarkson that unfortunately he had
: nothing to do concerning the selection
= of the place where he was born and
= that he was~'not cOnsulted-that his
: parents were responsible for that He
further pointed out to Justice Clark
: son that he had been living in the
:--Souht for more than 35 years and for
: the past 20 years in Charlotte, and
- that he was in heart and spirit just
las much of North Carolinian as
those who had been born here.
It was pointed out today that JUS
lice Clarkson is not a native North
z, Carolinian, having been born in King
vile, Richland county, South Carolina.

= sided and both parted in a friendly
manner. But those who observed the
incident believe that Justice Clarkson

quickly. but Mrs. Bryce answered
just as quickly: II have never beer

Reyes. He comes here occasionally

Keyes was frankly disappointed
and showed it. Thanking her, we
left soon after. not much wiser than
we had been before we came. I told
Reyes I thought the visit had been
a mistake. that IL Mrs. Bryce knew
anything, we had put her on her
guard. It would have been better
I argued. to have watched her for a
few days before talking to her.

Yes. was convinced Mrs. Bryce was
nobody,s fool, and something in me
told me that she knew much more
than she had told us. Why was her
relationship with Van Every such a
secret? Because my friend wished
it. perhaps Probably on account Of
Joyce. He wouldn't want Joyce to
know. I resolved to ask him about
Edith Bryce the next time saw him.
If he thought was meddhng-well,
it would be unfortunate. But I
thought knew him we'll enough to
believe he would tell me the whole
story.
We stopped Off at my hotel where
a message was waiting from Van
Every. I got him Immediately. He
wanted to talk to me about Joyce.
He understood had given her

She would at least be out Of mischief
in the library. And I was to work
her so hard that she would get over
any ambitions she might have for
job. He thanked me again and
again. and vowed he should have

ago. II he could reimburse me for
her salary-I laughed this away.
No. I would pay the salary. It was
all right and I promised I would
keep her at work as long as she
wanted to work. ?.

fine etchings on the walls caught my
eye and went over to examine them

not easy to guess her age. but she
seemed to me to be between 35 and

about her that interested me at once.
