 Britain has beheaded kings and thrown out kings who overstepped the elastic but limited bounds of their prerogatives. But never be- tore this reign has the possibility been discussed that one might quit the job voluntarily in favor of lead Ing his own life. The conclusion Is unacceptable in this fold world of kings that though crown might make the head lie uneasy, it makes Q fine hat.
 Speculation BeHefs
 Speculation on the possibility that King Edward might retire is based on the beliefs CD that he does not like the job; (2) that he resentS the plain opposition of church leaders and more conservative statesmen of his close friendship with Mrs. Simpson, wife of a former officer of the kings own crack household regiments; (3) that he is of headStrong nature and inclined to pursue a course with even great CT determination if it is opposed.
 While the gossip went on, and the newspapers maintained a silence thick as a London fog concerning the divorce suit. King Edward went to his country home, Fort Belvedere, near Windsor in the beautiful coun- try outside London for the week. end. There his privacy was well guarded and it was not known whether Mrs. Simpson was among his guests, as she has been before.

sivO of money spent for actual re- lief, compared with $3,660, 900 900 a year under his administration.
 'The impression that Mir. Roose- welt seeks to convey by the accounts is that his ordinary expenditures of government outside the bonus are stiI running at less than four bil- lions per annum," he said.
 Attacking President Roosevelt's assertions that the budget can be balanced without additional taxes. he continued:
 And this opens another field of intellectual dishonesty.
 "The government income for 1886 was about four billion after we omit repealed taxes. That leaves deficit of two billion for regular running expenses even without continued unemployment relief. Present taxes may stretch up another $500, ,000, 900 or even a billion with full prosperity. And it still leaves huge deficit.
 Taxes Inevitable
 Those taxes are as inevitable as the night. But in the meantime the New Deal has disingenuous solu- tion. The administration apparently intends to treat the repayment of recoverable loans as revenue and to claim a balanced budget.
 If you borrow money from your bank and loan 1t to afriend, and ul- timately your friend repays, then you would be well advised to pay of the bank. It is only a New Deal mind who would consider you had a raise in salary. That is going on this minute"
 Hoover Remedy
 The remedy, MT. Hoover told his audience, is this:
 T. Resume congressional control of spending by the election of re- publican congressman and senators.
 ''3. Drive these expenses down to- ward the republican levels, balance the budget, rut back the integrity of the government accounting, and above all restore truth and morals In government by the election of those honest gentlemen, Alfred Lar- don and Frank Knox"
 At the outset of his speech MT. Hoover recalled the denunciatory phrases used by MT. Roosevelt four years ago to describe finances under the last republican regime, which MT. Hoover said increased the public debt by three billions, less recov- erable assets.
 MT. Roosevelt having exhausted these words on three billions, what is there left to us to use on his ultimate IA billions?" he asked.
 Mir. Roosevelt's misrepresentation "can only be washed up in the laun- dry of time," and that laundry is working" MT. Hoover added.
 He said MT. Roosevelt's 1886 speech in Pittsburgh, forecasting Q balanced budget, naturally omitted correction of his inexactitudes of four years before.
 Changes Rules
 "F1e now diSrnisseS his own im- mensely greater deficits and all the evidences of his wastes and follies by the pious remark that for him and his supine congress to have bal- anced his budget would "hAve been crime against the American peo- ple," MT. Hoover said. 'Thus he changes rules between these two innings"
 MT. Hoover contended that the depression was due to worldwide aftermath of the war, that the Roosevelt administration impeded recovery. and that recovery was not .he work of any one ofticial or gov- ernment or all of them. Recovery was the invincible result of a billion of human beings on the seven con- tinents struggling to repair the breaches in their daily lives"
