Proclamation as King.
I'VE, therefore, the lords spiritua
and temporal of this reign being hers
assisted with these of his late ma
jesty's Privy Council, with the num-
bers of other principal gentlemen Of
quality, with the lord mayor, alder
men and citizens of London, do now
hereby with voice and consent OF
tongue and heart, publish and pro-
claim that the high and mighty Prince
Edward Albert Christian George An
drew Patrick David is now, by the
death of our late sovereign Of happy
memory, become our only lawful right
full liege, Lord Edward the Eighth
by the grace of God, King of Great
Britain, Ireland and the British Do
minions beyond the seas, defender OF
the Faith, Emperor of India:
ITO whom we do acknowledge all
faith and constant obedience with all
hearty and humble affection, beseech-
ing God, by whom kings and queens
do reign. to bless the royal Prince
Edward VIII with long and happy
years to reign over U.S."
Immediately after the st. James
Palace ceremony, Prime Minister STAN
lev Baldwin proceeded to Bucking-
ham Palace, as did Edward VIII,
where the new King received the
representative of the peoples govern
ment.
Former Prime Minister Ramsay Mac
Donald, lord president Of the council,
presided at cabinet meeting at No
10 Downing street. historic government
headquarters, in the absence OF Bald
win.
King Edward. entering fully into his
new duties of state, planned to fly
back to Sandringham this afternoon,
weather permitting.
However, overcast skies and the
threat of snow. already swirling in the
midlands. caused the King to cancel
his plan for flying to Sandringham and
it was announced he would go by train
instead, leaving at 2:37 pm.
King Edward arrived at the station
two minutes late, then left for Sand
ringham.
He was accompanied by his younger
brothers. the Dukes of York and
Gloucester, and by their wives.
London's millions put aside for a day
their mourning for the dead King to
witness the centuries-old ceremonies
by which the capital city is told that
new monarch reigns.
Half-staffed flags were raised in
honor of the new sovereign. A glitter
ing cavalcade formed to carry out the
rites dating back to the Norman con-
quest.
Black-clad crowds milled about the
four traditional points-St. James
Palace, Charing Cross, Temple Bar
and the Royal Exchange.
The body Of King George lay in
the little village church at Sandring-
ham, where he once worshiped with
his family. It rested in a plain oaken
coffin simply inscribed:
George Frederick Ernest Albert
Windsor, 1865-1936."
Body to Lie in State.
Only mile from the pomp and
pageantry of the succession procla-
nations, under the ancient rafters of
Westminster Hall, workmen prepared
sadly for the return tomorrow of King
George to lie in state at the place
where seven months ago he received
the jubilee congratulations of Parlia-
ment.
Thence the body will be removed to
Windsor Castle, just west Of London,

called upon to suppress 1,067.
Damages to woodlands from fires
amounted to only $11 817 in Septem-
Der compared with $24,798 in August
and $26,576 in July Heaviest forest
