LONDON, May 1.-THE British
press today brought out into the open
the controversy over q royal recogni-
ton Of Mrs. Wallis Warfield by means
Of the formal announcement Of her
engagement to the Duke Of Windsor
by King George vi himself.
While the Sunday Referee reported
the King was ready to extend the
royal fanlilys sanction Of the match
by announcing the betrothal of his
brother and the woman for whom Ed
ward gave up his throne, the Express
said such move was impossible.
Ecclesiastical objections to Mrs.
Warfield as a twice. divorced person.
the Express said, prevented the King
from taking any such action.
Announcement Expected This Week.
The Sunday Referee, which has not
always been correct in its information
concerning the abdicated monarch and
his American hancee, predicted King
George would announce his brothers
engagement this week.
1T will be the Royal family's first
public recognition Of the Dukes asso.
citation with Mrs Warfeld," the Ref
cree declared.
The likely form for the announce
ment to take, the paper said, would be:
THE King learns with pleasure Of
the betrothal Of his brother to ."
Even the Sunday Referee, however,
did not fill out the style with which
Mrs. Warfield would be designated,
question vexing court circles almost as
much as the romance which brought
about Edwards abdication and paved
the way for Georges coronation last
Wednesday.
Insists on Royal Status.
Edward, feeling such style was
due his bride, was reported to have
insisted that his younger brother
make it clear she would take her hus-
bands rank and be III. r. H.
Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin,
backed by the church and some court
circles, was generally considered to be
leading the opposition to conferring
royal status on the woman for whose
love Edward stepped down OF the
empires throne.
In the meantime, Mrs Warheld's
assumption Of that name for the
ceremony with Windsor was made
completely legal through publication
Of the deed poll by which she dropped
her divorced husbands name OF Sinp.
son.
As required by law, the formal docu.
ment, which costs $3.50 in Supreme
Court, was circulated for the imforma-
ton Of the public in morning news.

c. M.-Will l get another house
to live in soon? Will my husband
get any work, as he hasn't worked
for about five years?
Ans: It's expensive to move and
until your husband gets work it
really wouldn't be advisable for
you to make change. Insist that
he get out and try to find work.
Also have him advertise in the pa
pers. He should be able to find
some kind of work, but don't nag
at him.
D. D. E.-Does the boy I am 60
ing with care for me? Also is the
gossip I hear about him true, as it
hurts me so bad?
Ans: The boy does care for you.
He went with another girl in a
nearby town before he began going
with you and has seen her Occa-
siOnally since you two began going
together. If he was in love with
her he wouldn't take up so
much of your time. Forget the
gossip.

MEETING PROPOSED FOR
FRIDAY IS CALLED OFF

The meeting which was to have been
held on the evening of Friday, July
2 has been called off.
This meeting was to have been held
in the interest of a canal proposed to
connect Pocomoke River with Sine
puxent Bay, this construction to form
a unit in the inland waterway joining
the most northern sections Of this
country with the most southern.
Such a project would be of i'm
mense advantage, if it should mater
ialize, to Ocean City, Snow Hill, Po-
comoke City, and Crisfield. A meet
ing was, therefore arranged, at which
representatives from the above cities
should be present; but, after consid-
Grafton by all parties interested, it
was decided to postpone any action on
the matter to later and more fitting
date.

Tourist" and contains a suggestion
which might, with advantage, be acted
upon by the city authorities.
The Tourist" claims he was really
embarrassed by having to stop people
on the street asking them to assist
him in locating the residence of some
friends. He suggests that, in order
to save Pocomoke from being classed
as a chick" town, the City Council
should get busy and place the names
of the streets on the corners to aid
strangers in finding their way around.
He insinuates Pocomoke is asleep and
he admonishes it to wake up and
get on the map as other country
towns have DONE"
The suggestion may be good one
and the Democrat" passes it on for
what it is worth.

My dear Sir
In summing up the accomplishments
of Worcester Post SO American Legion
for the year, our organization was as
usual conspicuous in doing things of
commendable character. Briefly this
is the History:
There are six American Legion
Posts in the Southeastern Shore Dis
trict, our Post having a membership
of 100, second to Cambridge having
a membership of 112.
We take great pride in sponsoring
the Girl Scouts; this organization has
membership of thirty young ladies';
Mrs. L. Griffin Callahan. Captain,
Mrs. Edw. Birmingham, Lieutenant.
The Scout Committee comprises: Mrs.
Raymond Dryden, Chairman; Mrs.
James Dryden, Mrs. James Crockett,
Mrs. Bradford Massey and Mrs. Rog-
er Landlord. Those who attended the
Potato Blossom Festival in Tasley
will recall the splendid showing they
made in the parade. They are, at
this time, spending a weeks outing at
Public Landing with headquarters at
the Mansion House. Aside from the
hour each day spent in military close
formation drill, the girls will follow
the standard Scout camping routine.
Mrs. Lance, of Pocomoke City, and
Miss Ruth Dashiells, of Cambridge
will be in charge of the swimming &C.
tivities, both having life saving badges
This Girl Scout Troop has been form
ed only about two months and judging
from the number of their membership
and progress at this time, they will
undoubtedly become larger organi'
cation. Our Post at this time wishes
to express its appreciation to all those
who have made contributions to take
care of the expense ofa these girls
while at Public Landing. L. Griffin
Callahan is the Drillmaster.
In the next term of our Post 6
Squadron of the Sons of the Ameri
can Legion will be formed.
The American Legion has many i'm
portant activities; to the flood suffer

and clothing; last Christmas, we dis
