MRS. SIMPSON’S RENUNCIATION Received Wednesday, 9.45 p.m. NEW YORK, Dec. S. Tlie most interesting news of tlio crisis appearing in America to-day is a trans-Atlantic telephonic interview in the Denver Rocky Mountain News with Mrs. Simpson with Lord Brownlow as interniediarjr.

Mrs. Simpson expressed her readiness to marry the King even if she cannot reign as queen but is ready to renounce her love of the King if that will save the Throne. Her love for him was so great that she could subordinate every personal desire and affection for his good and the good of his people. The Philadelphia Inquirer quoted Hugh Walpole, the noted English author, a 3 being very censorious of the King in an interview with the Press, expressing the opinion that it might be a good thing for England if Edward abdicated.

The Press Association understands that Mr. Goddard had not previously flown for which roason he requested Dr. Kirkwood, his medical adviser, to accompany him. This is the sole reason for Dr. Kirkwood 's journey.

“ Stern Daughter of the Voice of God ” MISPLACED SYMPATHY AND SENTIMENT Received Wednesday, 9.20 p.m. NEW YORK, Dec. 8. The New York Times, in a leader, says: “Sympathy and sentiment are very well in their place, hut the occasion now being faced by the British Empire seems to call for the reading of an ode to duty, that ‘stern daughter of the voice of God.’ ” Lords Ready for Legislation Received 'Wednesday, 9.50 p.m. LONDON, Dec. 9. The Manchester Guardian’s political correspondent says the House of Lords met at 10.45 last night, a most unusual proceeding. The reason was to pass the Expiring Laws (Continuance) Bill. It is contended that the Bill had to be passed last night, but another explanation of the proceeding is that tho measure is being got out of the way in readiness for any needed emergency legislation if the King were to abdicate.

The newspaper which yesterday printed a leader composed of Shakespearean quotations carried another instalment to-day. Tho Baltimore Advertising Club is ■considering the selection of Mrs. Simpson to receive tho 1936 award for the citizen contributing most to the city’s progress in business, art and literature.
