BETHESDA BAPTIST

Preaching twice from the same
text last Sunday, our pastor, Rev.
w. E. Wellington, interested two
audiences which, in spite of cold
weather, came out to Bethesda.
The text read: Blessed are they
who are hungered for they shall be
satisfied" In the evening message,
the pastor discussed three phases
of hunger; the inquisitive, that
which influences one to make in
quiries; the acquisitive, inducing
one to get the object of his Curl
osity and the constructive which
seeks to work into his scheme of
existence the thing when found.
The message, though brief, was
pointed, powerful, and interesting.
Indeed its very brevity brought out
most strikingly the earnestness
that motivates this speaker and
enables his message to take root
in minds not weary with a too
lengthy tome.
The Gospel chorus served cocoa
and cakes and was host in an en-
joyable social hour following the

branch viewed with unconcealed
diStaSte her trips around Europe
with the Prince of Wales.
At one afternoon gathering last
year one of the brighter lights of
that particular branch of the fam
lily imposed a rigid ban on any
mention of Mrs. Simpsons name.
Her conduct is prepOSterOuS;
she's disgracing our family" this
woman told her friends. "Never
mention her name in my house."
But today-and this is what has
set Baltimore society and the coun-
try estate folks hereabouts chuck
ling-MrS. Simpson can do no
wrong so far as any branch of
her family is concerned. Only one
small branch has held out this
long, and it is capitulating after
having virtually "disowned" her.

LONDON, Dec. 4 G.N.S).
King Edward VIII has the right
to marry whomever he chooses,
and the lady thus honored auto
matically becomes the queen of
England, Col. Josiah WedgwooGH
Laborite M. P. and chief parlia-
mentary supporter of the monarch
IN his marriage crisis, declared to-
Cay.
Colonel Wedgwood yesterday no
titled parliament of his intention
of submit a bill binding the House
of Commons to recognize no
sovereign but King Edward and to
legalize his coronation even If
church support is withheld. He
said:
"When I ask why the King
should not marry Mrs. Simpson,
the answer-baSed on l don't
know what's that the aristOc-
racy and the dOminiOnS would
not stand for it.
Our prestige abrOad-sO high
after Abyssinia and Spain -
would suffer.
"The idea Of ariStOcracy 60
ing on strike may well raise a
smile. As for the dOminiOns, it
was only yesterday that these
Jeremiahs were saying England
wouldn't stand for it.
"NOw, fOrsOOth, it's the dOmin-
ions.
$50 far as parliament or law
is concerned, the King can if he
chooses marry a lady and then
she becomes Queen. The King
to whom we swOre allegiance
only eleven months ago will still
be legally King whether the
coronation takes place or not,
or whether the ceremony varies
from precedent or not, or
whether the Bishop of Bradford
(whO recently called attention to
the Kings "duty') or any other
person is there or not"
Citing precedents when English
kings married commoners, Wedg-
wood continued:
"Precedents, however, are not
needed. Our common people
naively want our King to be
happy, and whom he marrieS is
The Washington times., 1936-12-04

In the most dramatic disclos-
ureS that have been made so lar
concerning the friendship Of the
former Baltimore belle with King
Edward, Mrs. Simpsons relatives
said that Edward, then Prince OF
Wales, asked his father, the late
King George v, for permission to
marry Mrs. Simpson in 1888.
King George, according to
these same unimpeachable sources
not only refused to give his con-
sent, but peremptorily for
bade Edward to mention the mat
ter again.
From several branches of the
Simpson family in Baltimore and
it's blue-blooded suburbs came con-
firmation today that Mrs. Simp-
son knew as far back as three
years ago that she was to become
Edwards bride. There was no
doubt of it in Wally's mind; there
has never been any doubt OF 1t
in the minds of her relatives here.
Typical Incident
An incident of two years ago,
is typical of the certainty with
which Mrs. Simpson and her
friends and relatives regarded
the wedding plans.
Mrs. Simpson was member OF
a gay party at Pimlico, the arlsto-
cratic Maryland Jockey Clubs race
track in north Baltimore. Her
choice of horses in the afternoons
races had been unfortunate. FL
nancially she was having a bad
afternoon.
you're not very lucky today"
laughed one of her cousins.
Before Mrs. Simpson could reply,
another member of the party
joshed:
Lucky at love, unIucky at
horses"
The conversation swerved imme-
diately to the then Prince of Wales
and Mrs. Simpson, who rarely dis
cuSsed Edward in public while in
Baltimore, is said to have dropped
her customary reserve and made
one of her most pointed obSerVa-
tions:
when he becomes King" she
said that afternoon, Everything
will be all right"
Divorce Planned in '33
With an almost total disregard
for the finer sensibilities of the
husband in the caSe-ErneSt
Simpson of London and New
York-MrS. Simpsons relatives
and friends asserted today in the
comparative privacy of an after
noon tea at nearby TowSon, that
Mrs. Simpson was prepared to
divorce her husband in 1888, but
that King Georges uncompromis-
ing attitude changed the plans of
the young, impetuous royal Suitor
and his already-married bride-to-
be.
Ernest would have stepped
out at any time Wallis gave
the word" said one member of
the family who has been close
to Mrs. Simpsons activities
here. "He was ready and will
ing. All they Edward and
Wally) had to do was name the
day. Ernest offered no Objec-
tiOns; in fact, he was willing to
help in any decent way he
could"
Kept a Secret
That part OF Baltimore which
really knows what is going on in
the right places-and which makes
up the inner circle at those places
is chuckling over another recent
development in the case. Since
1888 the wedding plans of Edward
and Wally have been a secret to
