cent, and Is giving rise to unpleasant
rumors affecting high political and
other personages."
The Rothermere expression SEEM
ingly threw to the King the support OF
the Northcliffe dynasty in the night
against government and church op-
position to his projected marriage.
1t was the influence Of Lord North
cliffe's Daily Mail which drove out
Asquith and made Lloyd George prime
minister during the World War.
It was believed Prime Minister
Baldwin hoped to get Parliament to
name the Duke Of York, heir pre-
sumptive, to succeed his brother while
England and the dominions still were
breathless from the shock of first pub
lication of the news that Edward de-
sired to marry divorce.
Time for Public Reaction.
The Kings firm stand against Civ
ing up Mrs. Simpson and the pro-
nouncement by Lord Rothermere,
with a previous indication Of SYM
pathy by Publisher Lord Beaverbrook,
gave time for public reaction to show
itself.
Even so, practically all the cards
are against the King. On the consti-
tutional issue, the church issue and
the fiouting Of conventions, he is in
q tight corner.
But he could wage a tremendous
battle over the constitutional question
to determine whether the government
or the monarch shall be supreme.
Meanwhile, from the Archbishop Of
Westminster, DR.. Arthur Hinsley, came
an appeal for special prayers for the
King by all Catholics tomorrow. The
Archbishop of Canterbury also had
asked prayers for the monarch from
the Church of England.
Twenty ministers attended today's
cabinet session, at which Edwards
declaration he will marry the chic
Mrs. Simpson was delivered by Bald
win.
He had received that declaration in
audience Friday night at Edwards
country retreat.
AS the ministers drew up before 10
Downing street, automobiles bearing
banners urging the King not to give
in to his government appeared in the
streets.
"Confound the clerics," said one
sign. "A free country and q free
King" declared another.
Crowds Demonstrate.
All Friday night crowds demon
strated in London, cheering the King
and some proclaiming "the new
Queen" meaning Mrs. Simpson.
Standing in the shadow of a statue
of Henry Irving, of Leicester Square,
workman turned orator to shout:
Down with the Church of England
we want Edward"
Wheels of commerce Of the mighty
empire were slowed Saturday because
of the crisis, and business leaders
clamored for speedy settlement-what-
ever it may be.
Preparations for the coronation,
scheduled for next May, were thrown

! being at least, and much concern was

decree nisi becomes final next
April q, shortly before Edwards
coronation Is Scheduled.0
The cabinet could, he sug-
gested, advise the King against
his reported request for legisla-
tion to permit morganatic mar
riage, and added pointedly:
IF the King refuses to take the
advice of his ministers, they are,
of course, free to resign"
IF an abdication were to be
hastily extorted the outrage so
committed would cast its shadow
forward across many chapters in
the history OF the British
empire"
Confer for More Than Hour.
Baldwin remained with Edward
Saturday night for an hour and a
quarter.
Secluded in his Belvedere Castle. the
monarch was believed determined to
wed Mrs. Simpson. even though it
cost his throne. His antagonists were
confident the monarch would be forced
to abdicate to follow the dictates OF
his heart but the King had not reached
Q decision on this.
He may decide within 48 hours:
Whether to give up the throne be-
cause of Baldwin's firm warning that
he cannot wed Mrs. Simpson and be
King
Whether to fight for both his love
and his kingdom in the belief the peo-
pie of the empire will rally to his
cause
The longer Edward could delay q
showdown on the constitutional crisis
concerning his right to marry whom
he chooses, the better appeared his
chances of rallying public opinion.
The average reaction Of the young
Englishman, who admires the King, is
'let him have her" There is grow
Ing belief here that the same reaction
prevails throughout the empire, al
though Baldwin claims sufficient back
ing from the dominions to crush any
attempt to pass legislation permitting
Edward to have Mrs. Simpson as his
wife but not as his queen.
Opposition Seen Growing.
There was indication, too. that op-
position has grown against any quick
effort to force abdication.
Lord Rothermere, powerful British
publisher and brother of the late Lord
Northcliffe, in an interview in the
London Evening News asserted Con
certed effort" was being made to hurry
the King from the throne and opposed
this with the warning:
mo government which on this mat
ter of supreme importance runs coun-
ter to the wishes of the people Of
England can survive.
You cannot smuggle the greatest
living Engnshman of the throne of
England during the week end. Time
must be given for a solution to this
matter. The present haste is inde-

Cancelled.
During the day number Of con-
servatives in the House of Commons
sent to the King their assurances OF
support in any parliamentary fight
he may make, but their stand was
regarded as almost hopeless. 1t was
conceded they had no chance to form
a successful government should Bald
win resign in the face o. Edwards
refusal to give up Mrs. Simpson.
The group Of conservatives, it was
learned. met Friday in the smoking
room of the House Of Commons TO

some threatened to refuse delivery II
such goods already were in transit.
And as the crisis continued. the

the country for the week end-with
the possibility he would return to
London to be hailed as King. With
him went the Princess Elizabeth.
