this day forward, for better, for
worse, for richer, for poorer, in sick
ness and in health, to love, cherish
and to obey till death do us part,
according to Gods holy ordinance:
and hereto I give thee my troth.
Places Ring on Finger.
Elizabeth released Philips hand.
Philip then placed the ring on
Elizabeth's finger and, repeating
after the archbishop, said:
with this ring I thee wed, with
my body I thee worship, and with
all my worldly goods I thee endow,
in the name of the Father and of
the Son and of the Holy Ghost,
Amen"
The royal couple knelt before the
archbishop and the congregation re-
manned standing while the prelate
intoned the prayer.
An audible murmur ran through
the assemblage as the archbishop
pronounced Philip and Elizabeth
man and wife.
The Archbishop of York delivered
his address and the Archbishop of
Canterbury gave the final prayer
and benediction.
After an anthem by the choir, the
entire assemblage joined in the
verses of God Save the King"
Then the royal bride and bride
groom and the members of their
families were led beyond the high
altar and into the Chapel of Edward
the Confessor to sign the register.
A golden pen was used.
The Archbishop of York advised
the couple in his address to he un-
selfish in their love and to share
each others pr ,blems.
| AS Elizabeth and Philip passed
King George and Queen Elizabeth,
the young duke bowed and his royal
bride made deep curtsey.
Walking past the Tomb of the
Unknown Soldier just inside the
Abbey's nave, the couple emerged
through the great west door.
Church bells sounded, only to be
drowned in the welcoming roar Of
a milling, jubilant multitude.
Elizabeth, stepping into the coach,
paused moment to fold her train,
taking up its ends from the two
little pages.
Donning his cap, the Duke took
his place beside his bride in the
coach, the footmen mounted and
the procession began its return to
the palace.
The Duke reached out a window
and waved at the crowds.
Policeman Mistakes FeisaL
The national anthem was at
tended by cheers when the King,
saluting, and the Queen lett the
church.
They were followed by the visit
ing royalty.
When the boy King Feisal of
Iraq emerged a policeman mistook
him for child from the crowd and
beckoned him aside. Obediently, the
King followed the bobby's instruc-
ton.
The cheers kept pace with the
procession, rising in an unbroken
roar that echoed over Saint James's
Park.
AS the coach entered the palace
forecourt both Philip and Elizabeth
smiled and waved happily. Inside
the gates they were-welcomed by the
palace staff.
Shortly afterward the King and
Queen, followed by their royal
guests, returned to the palace for
the wedding breakfast.
Unmoving, the crowd hung on,
awaiting a balcony appearance Of
the princess and her duke.
To tumultous cheers, the bride and
bridegroom appeared on the bal
cony, followed by the King and
Queen and other members of the
royal family.

the pay of officers since 1908 will be
presented.
Forrestal Cited Inadeauacy.
The services also feel additional
help must be given enlisted men in
the higher grades.
Mr.. Forrestal several months ago
wrote to President Truman inform
ing him that, in his opinion, the
scales of service pay were no longer
adequate. He was then Secretary
of the Navy, and at that time the
Joint board, now putting finishing
touches on its recommendations, was
appointed.
The increasing difficulty in getting
capable men to continue In the Gov
ernment to the detriment of their
pocketbooks has been conn., tied on
several times by the President.
A private in 1785 was paid $4 a
month, and five years later he
received 81 less. In 1785 his pay
went back to 81 and increased very
slowly until 1908, when he was max
ing SIS. His pay was $50 IN 1913,
but it dropped back to $21 IN 1922,

tention in such fashion as to be
successful because even two months
now may be too late
Called Administrative Matter.
Asked whether the Chinese aid
should be given priority by the spe-
cial session of Congress, Gov. Dewey
replied:
"It's first an administrative mat
ter. It could have been given months
ago. The tragedy is that it has
been neglected. 1t should be part
of the long-range program and
given top consideration with the
situation in Europe"
AS to a plan for combating high
prices simultaneously with giving
aid abroad, Gov. Dewey said in reply
to question:
Certainly steps have to be taken
to combat the inflationary effects of
the program of foreign assistance.
He refused to elaborate.
Earlier in his tour Gov. Dewey
said that the Russians are using the
United Nations as sounding board
in word war" designed to block
American aid to hungry countries.
Says Lives Are Risked.
Even U. N. delegates of many
countries, he said, are risking their
lives in voting with the majority of
every major test of strength on the
side of justice and liberty
Striking at what he called "a Com
munist monster feeding on the plight
of oppressed people" Gov. Dewey de-
'clared:
"A stream of malicious falsehood
calumny pours from the Kremlin
and reaches climactic flood stage
in the assembly of the United Ma
tions."

New Mexico Cheered
By Former Enemies
On Reaching Newark
By the Assoeiated Press

NEWARK, N. j., Nov. 20-The
New Mexico. Scared veteran of two
World Wars, edged into Port New
ark Channel yesterday to the cheers
of city that until now had barred
her entry.
1t was the gallant battleship's
final journey-to a scrapyard under
tow as the property of salvage firm.
A high school band lined the docks
and blared martial music; specta-
tors, including Mayor Vincent j.
Murphy and other city officials,
hurrahed in salute, and Newark S

boats steamed into Newark Bay to
greet with upraised water nozzles
the 30,000-ton battleship.
Battleship Hailed.
Hail New Mexico, mighty queen,
read the 6-foot banners hanging
from the sides of the fireboats
Michael P. Duffy and William j
Brennan.
AS the two fireboats came within
1,000 feet of the onetime queen OF
the 5th Fleet, a loud-speaker aboard
the Brennan waited through the
frosty air the strains of The Star
Spangled Banner"
Only "a hours ago the two fire.
boats had stood ready to bar the
mouth of the channel to the once
mighty warship. The city of New
ark for more than week had
opposed Letting Lipsett. Inc, move
the vessel to leased Navy docks

would lead to this city becoming a
graveyard for old ships.

Undersecretary of Navy w. John

Terms of Settlement.
Under terms of the agreement the
Lipsett firm would complete its
scrapping of the New Mexico and
two other battleships, the Idaho
and the Wyoming, over a nine
month period at Port Newark.
1--WE never had any unwelcome
feeling toward the New Mexico"
said Mayor Murphy, I'VE only want
ed to have the port area used for
the benefit of our city"
Morris E. Lipsett, head of the
salvage firm, announced that the
two other battleships, The Idaho
and the wyoming, would arrive here
in 10 days.
Thus ended the Battle of New
ark Bay" perhaps the most pub
licized naval encounter that never
occurred.

Crowds Break Police Lines.
At the Abbey door was a guard

Princess Elizabeth walked out Of
the palace to enter the Irish state
coach at 11:16 am, while bands
played the national anthem, "Goc

7 In a moment of excitement, the
crowds broke through police lines
for moment, but were pushed back
quickly.
AS the carriage procession of the
Princess and her father left the
palace forecourt the cheering rose
mounting to absolute din. The
Princess waved.
The Princess was dignified and
serene. She was a lovely figure ir

A black cat is considered lucky in

procession moved slowly down the
nave.
After the echoes OF the fanfare
died away, the organ began the pro.
cessiofal: Praise. My Soul, the
King of Heaven" The voices of the
choir blended with the organ in the
hymn.
At the steps of the sanctuary the
bride was joined by Philip and they
stood quietly, waiting for the end
of the hymn.
Philip Repeats Vows.
Dearly beloved" the Archbishop
of Canterbury began in the familiar
opening words of the marriage serv-
ice and the moment for which
millions were waiting had arrived.
The archbishop's voice rang firmly
through the magnificent old church.
Philip, repeating the marriage vow
after the archbishop, said Il will
quietly. When Elizabeth echoed the
VOWS her words were scarcely
audible.
King George then gave his eldest
daughter in marriage. Philip joined
his right hand with Elizabeth's, and
in strong, resonant voice repeated
the words:
