Coward hastily donned a dressing-gown and excused himself, and when he returned, it was merely to mention that the king had notified the Herman L. Rogers' at Cannes of Mrs. Simpson's arrival.

Landon in the entire campaign-polled upwards of 125,000 votes, practically the same number as Franklin Roosevelt.
