The thing we have got to avoid more than any thing else Is abdication. Any change will tear this country In two. If a gen eral afternoon Star, which said: 'Why be on the side of the king." His words echoed those of the lib eraf afternoon Star, which said: "Why should he (the king) be denied the common happiness of mankind?" Pledge Hinted With his heir-presumptive brother and Mrs. Simpson herself at his side, the king refused to yield to Baldwin on throne or friendship. But, some sources said, be may have thrust aside the first minister's attack with a pledge he would make no arrange ment not satisfactory to the govern ment, the church and himself. Col. Wedgwood, commenting on his statement that a general eloetlon would result In favor of the king, snld: "The vast bulk of the people hate seeing a man bullied when he thinks he Is right and they respect a man who will stand up for his rights. "Obviously the question Is not one for the cabinet to decide but for par liament as a whole as In the case of Richard II." Baldwin Shaken Baldwin, in an unprecedented house of commons setting, stood, white and stubborn, to say: "I havo no state- ment to make" on a constitutional crisis. Clement R. Attlee, the opposition leader who reputedly has sided with Baldwin against the king In the prime minister's demand that Edward relinquish tho American, asked as the tense members of parliament and the amazed citizenry of tho empire wait ed: "I would like to ask the prime min ister on private motion a question whether any constitutional difficul ties have arisen and whether he has any statement to make?" Baldwin replied: "I have no statement 'to make to day. While there does not at present exist any constitutional difficulty, the situation Is of such a nature as to make It Inexpedient that I. should be questioned about It at this stage." Stunning climax It was a stunning antl-cllmax to a day which saw these breath-taking developments: 1. The king, at his Fort Belvedere country residence with the Duke and Duchess of York. Mrs. Simpson, and his closest counselors, was represent ed by the highest sources as determ ined to hold both nis irienasnip tor the Amorlcan woman and his throne a situation which might ultimately lead to his abdication. 2. Baldwin reputedly threatening. with the support of his opposition mass cabinet resignation unless the king renounces any idea to marry Mrs. Simpson. 3. The excited, astonished people of the British Isles and their domin ions, engulfed by a sudden flood of vivid publicity about their sovereign and his twice-divorced friend, grop ing for a decision and a stand with king or cabinet. 4. The Angellcan church, openly op posing any alliance whatsoever be tween the king and Mrs. Simpson. SLIGHT DAMAGE DONE BY SPONTANEOUS FIRE AT CINDERELLA SHOP T T Use Mull Tribune snt mU.
