Dispatch Tells Story A brief cabled dispatch from Cannes, on Sept. 11, 1935, told the story to Americans. It read: “Cannes, zeae, Beda ing he easy holiday atmosphere o! e Ri- viera was offered in British naval circles today as an excuse for the failure of the Prince of Wales to ob- serve strict naval etiquette. “His lapse was that he boarded the Destroyer Wishart hatless, and, thus uncovered, raised his arm to acknowledge the guard’s presenta- tion of arms. It was not a stiff sa- lute, such as would have been ex- pected of him he had worn his hat. “Mrs. Wally Simpson, the prince's American companion on the visit to the destroyer, persuaded him to wear a hat but he left it in the car at the dock, she explained.” First ‘Link’ Story The dispatch was one of the first stories from abroad openly linking. Mrs. Simpson’s name with the world’s most eligible bachelor. i Behind the scenes, as the months wore on, American correspondents in London knew that Edward was utterly fascinated by the raven- haired Baltimore beauty. But they had no “newspeg” on which to hang the story. True, they frequently were seen to- gether ... dancing at west side night clubs . . . attending the same “smart set” dinner. parties in Mayfair .. . sided-by-side, laughing gelly, in a grandstand box at Ascot or Aintree +. . and Mrs, Simpson half-hidden on the balcony at St. James’s palace when Edward was proclaimed king. These facts, American correspond- ents told. At last, on May 27, 1936, Mrs, Simp- son’s name bobbed up in an “official” way—a notice in the royal court cir- cular. And this time, the correspond- ents knew that it signalled the bursting of the flood-gates, the “green light” on the word traffic which would soon gather momentum until it reached the stunning climax of Edward surrendering his throne for “the woman I love.” Notice Is Simple : The notice, four months after the death of George V., stated simply: “Col. and Mrs. Charles A. Lind- bergh dined tonight with fourteen other guests of King Edward VIII. at St. James's palace. “Prime Minister and Mrs. Stanley Baldwin headed the list of guests, which also included Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Duff Cooper and Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Simpson.” Now, by virtue of this announce- —e—_ Makes You Forget You Have FALSE TEETH No longer does any wearer of false teeth need to be annoyed or feel ill at ease.

Avoid embarrassment, Get FASTEETH from any good druggist.—Advertise- ment, ment in the official court circular, Mrs. Simpson emerged from the shadow-realm of rumor and gossip to @ recognized place in Edward's royal court circle—a far cry, indeed, from the days of her mother’s boarding- house in Baltimore, Md. Now she “belonged.” 2 It may be that Edward already determined to marry her. Ten weeks earlier, on Mar, 11, -he had hinted forcefully at the possi- bility of ending his long ‘bachelor- hood, in a message to parliament. $200,000 Set Aside “His majesty desires that the con- tingency of his marriage should be taken into account so that, in that event, there should be a provisjon for her majesty the (new) queen .. .” the message said, and although Ed- ward did not identify the lady of his heart, the house of commons set aside $200,000- for his “hypothetical bride.” ‘ Certainly, he could have no other bride than Wallis in mind, as sub- sequently swift-flowing events ve Hee On July 1, thickly-cloal = ers” led.@ major é firm to boost their rates from 9 to 30 per cent against the possibility of Edward announcing his betrothal be- fore the coronation. ie?

On Aug. 8, Edward left England for the start of his month’s holiday cruise in the Adriatic and Eegean seas, aboard the $1,500,000 steam yacht Nahlin — and although the names of other cruise guests were listed, dispatches to American news- popes: pointed out this interesting fact: “The name of one of the most popu- lar members of Edward's set, Mrs. Ernest Simpson, did not appear on unofficial lists of royal guests pub- lished in London.” Why? The answer, it is known now, is that the “hush-hush” campaign of the British press had already started >the ‘campaign of “discreet silence” which was to boomerang with such explosive effect. on a British public which did not know, up: to: the’ last minute, that Edwards’ first great love in his life had precipiated a grave constitutional crisis. z (Tuesday: The Simpson di- vorce; beginning of the attack on Edward.) : her: Lindegren give mea says Art. PERFECT CONTROL get on my nerves!” the STOGK RAISING AND. IRRIGATION IS NERD MLAUGHLIN AVERS State Must Work Out Its Plan in Coordination With Fed- eral Governmen Combination of livestock and irri- sation with dryland farming in “select areas” was seen by W. W. McLaugh- lin, Berkeley, Calif, chief of the ir- rigation division of the bureau of ag- riculture, as North Dakota's “hope for utilization” of western range country. McLaughlin, who aided in drawing up North Dakota’s new water con- servation and irrigation act passed at the last session of the legislature, con- ferred with officials here Saturday relative to progress of the water com- mission. He left Sunday for Spokane, Wash., to attend a regional irrigation conference before returning to Wash- ington, D. C. “The program: for Western North Dakota is livestock raising and irri- gation projects along the Missouri river and its tributaries,” McLaughlin asserted. “The state must work out its plan, co-ordinating with federal agencies, before much progress can be expected.” The engineer pointed to failure of irrigation projects in Williams county. shortly after the turn of the century as examples of tracts where perfected operating plans were not made. Had these two succeeded the “idea of irri- gation” might have moved along the Missouri river long before this, he asserted. Sctcrettlnes means use,” Mce ug! said, adding there apparent- ly had been a mistaken idea when dams were built to “preserve” water for recreation. “Recreation has a Piace in our program,” he said, “but. not to exclusion of the breadbasket.” He said when ever possible, farmers should practice supplemental irriga- tion to produce food in the garden and sufficient feed to carry his stock through emergencies. Government Checking River Traffic Revival Possibilities of steamboat transpor- tation revival on the Missouri River are being studied by U. 8. army en- gineers who are in the field checking navigation development facilities, State Engineer E.

Relief Load Now Decreasing Af- ter Hitting Peak of 48,000 Farm Families (Editor’s note: This is the first of a series on activities of the North Dakota Rural Resettlement administration under direction of Howard Wood). Rural resettlement stepped into the North Dakota drouth picture in the final days of ‘1936 to set up a state-wide relief program which dur- ing the past 18 months has brought nearly $12,000,000 to destitute farm families. Under guidance of Director How- ard Wood, the federal government ‘gency has granted 22,463 standard and emergency loans amounting to $5,564,733.17 and checks totaling $5,- 817,461.22 have been issued as grants to financially distressed farmers. The RA loans, which reached a peak last month when nearly 48,000 North Dakota farm families were get- ting ald from this agency, are on a downhill trend today, Wood said, ex- plaining 6,099 families removed from RA rolls since April because “they were coming into production.” Find Cash Income “Pastures are greening and cattle are being turned out,” Wood said. “There is feed for chickens—so many of our clients are finding butter, milk, cream and eggs to carry them glong.” The director said he expected “con- siderable reduction” in RA lists. par- ticularly in eastern North Dakota where heavy moisture has brought new hope. He asserted there would be but “slight decrease” in the area west of the Missouri river and in Divide, McKenzie, Burleigh, Emmons and western parts of McIntosh and Logan counties. “If spring had come on normally with good rains generally over the state big reductions in the rehabili- tation diviison would have been pos- sible,” he said. 48,000 Families Aided He explained that of nearly 48,000 farm families receiving help in the German Baptists To Meet In N.
