ABDICATION ECHOES
ARTICLES ON MRS SIMPSON MANY FANTASTIC REPORTS Press Association —By Telegraph—Copyright LONDON, January 5. Breaking her silence, Mrs Simpson issued to newspaper men at Cannes a protest against a series of articles published in various newspapers throughout the world under the name of Newbold Noyes, editor of the Washington ‘ Evening Star/ who styles himself her cousin. Mrs Simpson denies that he is her cousin, and states that after a conversation she authorised him to publish a “ portrait in words,” with the objective of rectifying many fantastic reports concerning her personality, but she noted with amazement that the actual articles far exceeded that scope. “Mr Noyes was received at dinner by King Edward, but the conversation was solely general and did not take a confidential turn, as suggested in the articles.” Mrs Simpson has retained a famous Parisian attorney to protect her interests. Another echo of the abdication is a statement issued by Mr George Routledge, of London, publisher of the book, • Abdication of Edward the Eighth,’ by Lincoln W bite, that Mr Thomas interviewed Mr William Randolph Hearst at Mr Hearst’s English home. Mr Thomas states that he never met Mr Hearst. .
