that might have meant there would
be no Mrs. Ernest Simpson to attend
the King of England's parties. She
and several other little girls stole away
from school to 60 buggy-riding. Sud-
denly a guard on a nearby estate
shouted to them, Get out OF here.
You're trespassing."

But Wallis grew panicky. She ran
to a creek screaming that she was
going to drown herself. But We caught
her, and have teased her about it ever

Mrs. Sadler also remembers that
Wallis Warfield was girl who cared
little for books. but enjoyed designing
her own dresses. She preferred the
company Of boys, and was a CONVEX
sational match for men much older.
Wed First in 1916.
When she was married to Lieut. Z.
Winfield Spencer in 1916, Mrs Sadler
says. Wallis designed her wedding gown
of white panne velvet, and the cere-
mony is still recalled as one of the
loveliest ever held in the city. The
couple left the church under an arch
of swords held by friends Of the bride
groom.
Apropos Of the wedding dress, DR..
Freddie Taylor. a member of Balti-
more's inner circle, recalls a story.

commented to Wallis afterward. What
have you done with it?"

Spencer was devoted to aviation. and

His bride loved society. She wanted
to be where the tea was flowing, and

Since then many of her relatives

One cousin remembers her laugh

cousin through the closed door.

tional force to strengthen 1t and en-

ried an English girl, even a commoner.
The last King to marry a commoner
was Henry VIII. he of many wives
While there is nothing in law to
prevent King Edward and Mrs. Simp-
son getting married. there is plenty of
modern royal tradition which would
oppose it. Women who have figured
in divorce suits have been on the
blacklist of King Edwards predeces-
sors for a long time. His austere
mother, Queen Mary, has been so op-
posed to divorces that she barred
them from all court functions during
her long reign with King George.
Many of the British public also
frown on divorce. 1t is only in recent
years that woman could divorce her
husband for misconduct, although he
could divorce her on this ground.
English people say that King Ed
ward would arouse plenty Of antago-
nism among his people if he tried to
marry Mrs. Simpson They go fur
ther and declare that such marriage
might have a serious effect on the po-
sition of the throne. They are equally
emphatic in saying there is no likeli-
hood that the King would venture
such a step, knowing the possible con-
sequences.
On the continent there have been
cases Of so-called morganatic mar
riages, that is, marriages in which the
woman did not assume the rank and
position Of her husband. Such a
thing could not occur in England;
when the King marries, his wife be-
comes Queen.
If royal prince under 25 years OF
age wants to marry he must obtain
the consent of his father, the King.
If that consent is not forthcoming.
and the prince does venture on matri-
mony, there is no marriage under the
law.
What would happen If King Ed
ward should insist on marrying some
one to whom the country was op-
posed? Nobody knows, because there
is no precedent Many things might
happen, if one wishes to speculate.
Can King Do Wrong?
The prime minister and his cab
met might protest to the King. If
his majesty ignored them they might
resign, forcing a general election. In
such case the issue before the voters
would be the problem of whether the
king can do no wrong"
If the King married, Parliament
might refuse to approve the monetary
allowance for the maintenance of her
majesty.
While many things might happen,
it is fairly certain that the average
Englishman is not going to get unduly
excited in advance of some indica-
ton that the friendship between their
King and the fair American is going
to blossom into matrimony. The
Britop is conservative and not in
clined to intrude much on the other
fellows private affairs, especially
those OF the King Emperor.

wife had filed the suit. Newspapers
and magazines continued their silence
in the case.

Marriage Might Cost Throne.
Time may tell whether the Kings
affection Is mere friendship or q royal
romance. Before and since his acces-
sion to the throne Edward often has
had the frolicsome Mrs. Simpson in
his pleasure parties.
King Edward, legally, may marry
whom he chooses-but it might cost
him his throne.
There is only one legal limitation
placed on an English King in the
choice Of his bride. Under the act
Of settlement of 1701 he may neither
adopt the Roman Catholic faith nor
marry a Catholic. 1t is understood
that Mrs. Simpson is protestant.
The King does not have to obtain
permission from any quarter to marry.
There is no restriction which says that
he must marry royalty or nobility: If
he wishes he may pick a commoner.
It has been the usual custom for
English rulers to marry into foreign
royal houses, mainly for political rea-
sons, but the people of Britain long
ago let it be known that they would
be happy If their Prince Charming. as

POLLUTION CURB
SOUGHT IN BILL
Would Prohibit Untreated
Sewage and Would Foster
State Pacts.
BY WILL p. KENNEDY.


The long-desired control of pollution
CT the Potomac River and its tribu-
taries would be possible under the
bill introduced today by Representa-
tive Fred M. Vinson of Kentucky,
member of the Ways and Means
Committee The bill, which was re-
ferred to the Interstate and Foreign
Commerce Committee, proposes to
create a division of stream pollution
control in the Bureau Of Public
Health.
Prominent members of Congress, in
Guiding Chairman Cochran of the
House Committee on Expenditures,
have for many years emphasized the
great economic waste and menace to
public health in the lack of adequate
pollution control over the river she'd
National organizations of anglers and
conservationists have for more than
Is years supported the efforts to get
congressional action.
Imposes Restrictions.
The Vinson bill provides strict pro-
hibitions against any State or NUM-
Cipality or private corporation dis
charging untreated or inadequately
treated sewage or waste deleterious
matter into the rivers.
The bill also proposes that the new
division be in charge of a director,
who would be a commissioned en-
gineer officer detailed by the surgeon
general Of the Public Health Service,
and that while so serving, he would
have the rank of assistant surgeon
general. The division, in cooperation
with the agencies of the several States
dealing with pollution, would pre-
pare a comprehensive plan for i'm
proving sanitary conditions of the
waters Of the United States 1t con-
templates Improvements necessary to
conserve such waters and to promote
their use for public water supplies,
propagation of fish and aquatic life,
recreational purposes. agricultural and
other legitimate uses. 1t contemplateS
investigation jointly by Federal and
State authorities the discharge of
any sewage, industrial waste or sub
stances which may adversely affect
such waters.
Would Foster Compact.
The Federal agency would be
authorized to encourage cooperative
activities by States, the enactment of
uniform laws and compacts between
the several States.
Upon request of any State health
authority, subject to the approval of
the Attorney General, the Federal
division could investigate any specific
problem of pollution and make definite
recommendations for correction or
elimination Of improper conditions
1t Is under this provision that the
prevention of further pollution of the
Potomac River area is expected to
be achieved.
The measure authorizes the appro-
priation of 100000 annually fol
maintenance of this proposed division
and the investigations it is expected
to make and 100000 annually for II
fiscal years to be expended as grants
to the several States, under direction
of respective State boards or de-
partment Of health.
