The Lady or the Lion?
TES, it's probably the greatest newspaper story in all history,
S For nothing quite like it has happened since newspapers
were invented.
It also is an excellent subject for the next intercollegiate
debate, so much can be said on BOTH sides. , "
We refer, of course, to the King Edward-Mrs. Simpson ro
mance. What a story! What a colorful, thrilling drama of
suspense, glumour and heart throbbing human-interest.
How interesting it is to have a seat in-the bleachers, be a
living witness to an epoch making, tradition shattering romance,
that makes the best that Hollywood cad offer, seem tame. and
hopelessly synthetic in comparison, a story that will be read
about and talked about, as long as the human race endures.
Aye verily, history is in the making these days, how the
old world slipping into high, is moving on!
VTES, so much can be said on both sides, and yet, this paper
feels, as it has from the first, that after listening to all
the pros and cons, the matter, in the final analysis, comes down
to just this: . ,
Does or does not, Edward Windsor, wish . to beKing of
England, and ruler of the far flung British Empire?
If he does, then that's bis job, and he should accept the
responsibilities and the sacrifices that job entails. .
If he does NOT, then he should make his decision known,
abandon the throne, and let someone else take over the duties
and responsibilities, of his office.
But he should not try to do- BOTH, not try to be a king
in publio life, and a carefree commoner, in private life, which,
as we see it, is what he is trying to do at the present moment.
It can't he done. And as long as we have kings, and wish
to seriously maintain the royal tradition, no one should expect
it to be done.
"DUT why" conies the cry from the opposition, "should not
a king be entitled to the same happiness, that is the
inalienable right of the humblest of his subjects, why should
he not be able to marry the woman of his own choice and
follow freely his heart's desire, whatever that might bet
' The obvious answer is, because he is KING. He is not presi
dent of a republic, or premier of a parliamentary government,
he does not owe his position to any political action, or eivil
right; he owes it solely and exclusively to the "accident'' of
birth, or if one prefers, the sanction of the Divine Power,
j He is of ROYAL blood, and was the next in line; that is
what made him king, and obviously, the forces that made him
king, are forces which it is his obligation to maintain, not for
himself alone but for his house and those who come after him
ALL right. Where do we go from here) We go directly to
the reason why Edward Windsor as king is not a free
agent, to do as ho wishes, where tho wife, the mother of his
children, the queen of the realm is concerned.
True that would be tho right of his humblest subject, of
any private citizen but King Edward ia neither, he is the
king, and when ho assumed that office, lm first duty became
not only the stability and welfare of his kingdom, but the main
tenance of the royal tradition and NOT what he, as an individ
ual, might desire or prefer.
'..
IT may be assumed King Edward is genuinely in love with
Mrs. Simpson. It may be a passing fancy of course, but we
don't think so. After all the king is no longer young, and cer
tainly knows his way around. Only a deep and very real pas
sion, as we see it, can explain his willingness to not only risk
his crown, but the stability of his empire, by his insistence that
he wed this former Baltimore belle, and no one else.
That is nil to his credit as an INDIVIDUAL, as a man.
Everyone loves a lover, and King Edward was greatly beloved
by his people, long before he became such a conspicuous one.
But beinc; an individual is one thing, being a king is ;uitc
another. Whereupon we return to where we started from,
which is this, which does the king wish to be, an individual
who can do as he likes, or a king, who CAN'T.
That's the whole matter in a nutshell.
And it seems to this paper, it's up to the king to decido and
to decide quickly. For ho can't be both.
IF he wants to be king, then he should play the game as a king
and uphold the kingly tradition.
If he doesn't want to be king, if the price is too high for him
to pay, then he should abdicate, follow the dictates of his heart,
and enjoy tho freedom, the personal rights and privileges, of a
private citizen.
Oh yes we know, common Mood is as good as royal blood
(our own belief is it's usually better), aud to compel a kinfl or
anyone else to marry some woniau ho doesn't love, and re
nounce the woman he does, is wicked, outrageous yes and un
democratic. All true no doubt from an American and romantio stand
point, ."hit the kingly tradition is NOT American and it's not
romantic, vid CERTAINLY it is NOT DEMOCRATIC. Nor
is the tradition of a ruling royal house; which is permaueu! and
carries on from one generation to another.
If the people of England wish to abandon the royal tradition,
it is their right and privilege to do bo. But until they do. be
it a myth, a pretense, or the essential connecting link in a far
flung empire the essential principles and responsibilities of
that tradition should be maintained.
THE truth as we see it is, neither the king's family, his min
isters, the church, nor a majority of his subjects wish their
king to be the third husband of an American divorcee or the
THIRD husband of ANY woman.
That may be bigoted, narrow minded, hypocritical or n-liat
have you, but it is certainly true to both the letter and spirit
of the royal idea and in harmony with long established British
tradition,
Edward Windsor as king should bow before it; accept the
responsibilities and sacrifices involved in the position he holds
in KINGLY fashion, or he should quit entirely and become a
private citizen, where whom he marries or does not marry, is
onlv his own concern.''

Comment

Day '$ News
By FRANK JENKINS
ON THE eve of the opening of the
21 -nation peace conference In
Buenos Aires (the 31 nations are all
American nations) Argentina gives
President Roosevelt a grest ovation
on his arrival.
That Is pleasing. President Roose
velt is the chief executive of the
Unlteci States. The United States has
long been referred to In South Amer
ica as "the Colossus of the North."
Suspicion of the Colossus of the
North has been responsible for In
ability of this country to work as
closely wit), tn nations of Central
and South America as has long been
regarded as desirable.
Our smaller neighbors to the south
have feared that the time might come
when we would take a notion to gob
ble them up.
4-
IN THB past, such a thing WAflNT
Impossible. But we've come fin
ally to realize that we have about, all
the territory we have any use for.
In fact, we're getting ready to turn
ne Phllpplnes loose. About all the
Colossus of the North wants now Is
to get along peacefully with Its
neighbors and sell them as much as
It can.
If President Roosevelt can "get
over" that fact to the people of South
America, his trip will have been a
great success..
NOTE, please, that the day of his
arrival in Buenos Aires Is de
scribed as a "bright, warm day in
early summer."
Most of us don't stop to think of
It, but in Argentina, which Is south
of the ?ouator, summer Is Just be
ginning. Down there, the seasons
are Just exactly opposite to our sea
sons here.
IF YOU like summer, and have the
means to travel, van ran llv in
perpetual summer by the simple de
vice of crossing back and forth over
the equator. With airplane service
steadily improving, that Is coming to
be a rather simple matter,
4-
WE ALL think we like summer and
that It would be grand to live
where summer Is perpetual. But,
oddly enough, the regions of the earth
where summer Is more or less per
petual AREN'T the outstanding ones.
Humanity seems to have donu better
for itself in those places where In
easy summer it has to prepare for
hard winter.
In other words, the necessity to
WORK AND SAVE have been a good
thing for human beings all over the
