Expects to Remain in Villa At Cannes for 1 wo More Weeks
Sends Edward Message
New Home of Monarch ls Uncertain ; May Go To Riviera
Cop)right. 19.16, hy United Press.
CANNES, France, Dec. 10.— (UP)—Mrs. Wallis Simpson, whose food is being tested for poison before it passes her lips, told the United Press tonight that ‘'there ls not a chance in the world of the king coming here.”
She was surrounded by extra guard sas she gave her Interview over the telephone. Hundreds of letters threatening her life have been received from persons who hold her responsible for the abdication of King Edward.
Mrs. Simpson said she did not want to discuss “the marriage question."
She refused to say "no" or “yes" to a direct question as to whether she and Edward have made arrangements to be married when her divorce from Ernest Simpson becomes imal on April 27.
Two Week Stay Mrs. Simpson said she would remain at the villa of Herman L. Rogers “at least two days longer."
She was asked about her telephone conversation with Edward late today, in which she sent him a message of cheer and called him "Boysy."
“So far as I know the king is still ln England and will be there for a few days,’’ she said.
Members of the Rogers household insisted all day the king certainly would not come now.
"This would be the last place for him,” a spokesman said. "He would be under the same roof as Mrs. Simpson, and such a situation might prejudice her final divorce decree."
Mrs. Simpson’s decree nisi from Ernest Simpson, granted at Ipswich October 27, does not become final until April 27.
There were reports, however, that Edward might take up temporary residence later along the Riviera, thus enabling him to see Mrs. Simpson daily.
Edward's Temporary Home One report was that the 42-year-old monarch might go to Italy or South America to wait until Mrs. Simpson's divorce becomes absolute.
She would become either the Duchess of Cornwall or the Countess of Chester, depending upon which title Edward assumes in private life.
Confirmation of the abdication, of which Mrs. Simpson undoubtedly had known well in advance of the formal announcement, readied the villa over one of the special tele-

The Duke oj York is trying to decide today whether to take the name oj George VI or Albert I when he takes over the duties of king oj England, following the abdication oj his brother, Edward VIII, who gave up his position because he plans to marry Mrs. Wallis Simpson, a commoner and an American.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 10 —<U.E)— The United States is prepared to throw all Its tremendous resources Into a well-organized drive for "immediate and complete" victory within 24 hours should a war emergency arise, Secretary of War Harry H. Woodring said today.
He made pubilc a comprehensive "Industrial mobilization plan" under which the president, by using wartime dictatorial powers, could draft for immediate national use all the country's man-power, materials, Industrial plants, and financial resources. The emergency dictatorship would extend to control of prices and distribution of all labor.
The program ls complete to the last detail. All the president would have to do to put it into effect after a declaration of war ls sign prepared documents and fill in blank spaces with the names of civilians to administer Its various phases.
The war and navy departments drafted the program over a period of years to make certain that if a new war breaks out the United States will not be unprepared as it was in the World war.
