It is generally m:. recognized that if King Tklward had stood his ground and 'ii-efused to abdicate the British people would have elected '..fff'parliameritthat would have supported him in his stand. () That would have made a bitter contest wnich might have u ,had a very injurious effect on the British Empire. The late king is deserving of commendatipn in having rea-lized the situation and taken the step which was announced this morning. It seems as if this renunciation will in ytne be looked upon possibly as the outstanding feature -fanner, with. due respect to the traditions of the country. .fjnajy.s I he new Kmtr Comes to the thrnnp nnrlpn vow rliffimtlf ,01 tne neoole as the ahnnintipp nf tho mnti!oi i the church considered as distinct from the common --people and it may take years to live it down. He will have Jo show by his actions that his sympathies are with all classes, if he is to have general support. The position has been thrust upon him evidently against his will, but he has agreed to make it his life work and carry out the duties in the best manner possible. Looked at in that light the sympathies and the support of the Empire should be with him, but it will be difficult to build around him such a halo as surrounded his predecessor. He, is now King and as such we feel sure he will receive the co-operation and support of all the people of Canada. The Ex-Kin? The man, who on the advice of the Empire cabinets, has gtyen up tne throne, will, if he carries himself discreetly, be an outstanding personage in Britain. He will be pointed out as the man wno gave up a kingdom for the woman he loved. If he should later wish to take a leading part in political life he would have a wonderful opportunity, even though handicapped by a seat in the House of Lords. It may be wise for him to stay away from England for a few years to prevent popular demonstrations in his favor. He will probably do that out of respect to his brother. He will be outstanding as, a king who signed the bill passed by parliament giving effect to the appointment of his successor. While many blame him for having brought the throne into disrepute, most people will agree that he has carried through his part of the change in a most correct ot a brief but verv imoortant reign.
