Tired of Job (Copyright 1936 by United Press) London, Dec. 14—til.R)—A report spread in political circles today thait Edward VIII abdicated be- ' cause he was thoroughly tired of his job and the life he was leading. and not specifically because of Mns. Wallis Warfield Simpson. At first there was talk that the government forced him into an : impossible situation because of I dissatisfaction with his attitude toward his prerogatives a* king. But now the report is that the 1 government really did all ilt could ■to persuade him to remain and that he, using his unquestioned love for Mrs. Simpson as the reason. took his first opportunity to quit. Some quarters asserted that he I had shown a desire to get into private life even when he was Prince of Wales, and that it took pressure from the government and his family as well to prevent him. Eajvi burned in London today as the result of the king’s (abdica-. tion. A radio address of yesterday bv the archbishop of Canterbury, head of the church of England, was interpreted as an angry attack not only on the life that the king led here but on the little intim’ate set with which he sought i diversion. Anglo-American couples, witn 'titled Englishmen as husliands and American women as wives, were prominent in the set. They ran to parties, with drinking and : dancing to hot jazz as features, ' along with gossip land an occasional poker party. The effect of this life on Edward was noted. When he fwed the final decision, on hte insistence ort marrying Mrs. Simpson, it was reported today that he switched from his favorite -brandy to vodka in hope of fortifying his nerves Newspapei* did not comment on the arebbishttp’e speech out theii' headlines today showed

1 It was interpreted more as an at-' tack on Edward's little circle of j friends than on him. DISCUSS PLAN /r/’NTtNUBD from fabw pyrpi ; Whitright, he stated that the partnership had been concluded and a. settlement reached before the time of the beginning of the present action. Therefore he stated that the money was due him a« an ’ individual contractor, not as a ' partner. The members of the Monroe high school visited the court room to witness the triad. o SUPREME COURT ■ ( £QNTINUKD from PAPE ONE) jurisdiction of the suit. The Duke Power decision brought the possibility that the supreme court may not have an | opportunity to rule on the constitutionality of PWA power loans during this year's court session. It was expected that the Duke case would have to go all the way through the courts again before reaching the supreme court —a process usually requiring some i months. It was possible, however, that one of the other PWA power loan suits among the several score which have been brought might be rushed up to the supreme court so that an earlier ruling might be obtained. The court sharply criticized the Duke proceedings before both the federal district court in South Carolina and the fourth circuit court • of appeals as not complying with j requirements of legal procedure. The Duke suit was brought to restrain PWA Administrator Harold L. Ickes from advancing $2,852,000 to Greenwood County, S. , C.. for construction of a hydroelectric plant on the Saluda river. The court in both the Duke and KVQS suits demonstrated plainly its unwillingness to pass on basic Issues unless properly raised from a legal standpoint.
