Parliament Threatens To Take Strong Measures To Halt Match
LONDON, Thursday, Dec. 2 —(UP)—King Edward’s struggle with the cabinet over his plans to marry Mrs. Wallis Warfield Simpson today reached a stage where the resignation of Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin was an imminent possibility.
The Baltimore beauty’s friendship with the king had brought about the most serious constitutional crisis in modern British history. After weeks of self-imposed censorship. London newspapers reported the crisis today warning the king that he must respect his obligation to the empire.
Time Limit Set Buckingham palace attendants said that Baldwin had given the king 48 hours to decide his future relations with Mrs. Simpson or be prepared to have parliament take the “strongest measures." These measures might Include a request for Edward’s abdication.
During the 36 hours since the bishop of Bradley precipitated the crisis by publicly assailing the king's lack of leadership ln moral matters, these momentous developments have occurred:
Developments Listed
1.	Baldwin visited the king at Buckingham Palace and advised him of the decisions reached in cabinet meeting a short time earlier. The cabinet was understood to have opposed any marriage plans providing for Mrs. Simpson to become queen. The possibility remained, however, that Edward might make her the Royal Consort with the title of Duchess of Cornwall without losing his throne.
2.	Baldwin then held a 90-minute conference with home secretary Sir John Simon. Afterward lt was reported that the prime minister would outline the government's position ln commons today or tomorrow.
3.	Edward left Buckingham Palace. alone, by motor, possibly to visit Mrs. Simpson.
4.	The Bishop of Bradford issued a statement to the press saying that he knew nothing of Edward's private affairs, but expressed concern over his lack of ''religion, which shows itself in Ms daily life.”
