Marquess' Engagement Brannan Cites Farm -Surplus Dangers GA fflEATHMG Wins King's Blessing Trade your SHOVEL for a MATCH Says Price Drop Could Wreck Our Economy Atlantic City, Sept. 28 (JP) It's for Keeps, Says Bride-Elect price the market would bring. He said this would free farmers of the "undeserved" penalty of low prices for abundance, relieve the Government program of surcharges for storage, spoilage, buying in processed forms, and taking unnecessarily large quantities from the market, and offer consumers a greater share in WRH TO A HAM YOU KNOW Q) Q) SIR) live with our abundance could wreck our world leadership." In a speech at the annual meeting of the National Associatiqn of Commissioners, Secretaries, and Directors of Agriculture, Brannan said: "The United States is the onlj nation, at midstream in the 20th Century, that is faced with the challenge of abundance.

"We must learn to live with it if we are to safeguard the nation from unemployment and depression." Emphasizing the need for better marketing, Brannan said the new price-support program he has recommended to Congress "could help us use our abundance to build our markets." Congress has shown no disposition to enact it. Brannan said the inability of the domestic market to use all of the country's production is "again becoming the dominant and de cisive factor in consumption, farm prices, and farm income." This is one of the key facts upon which his suggested program is founded, he said. The other essential facts, he said, are the American farmer's proven capacity for greater production and the continuing downward trend in net farm income while prices farmers pay stay close to their postwar highs. "The price box score gives warning," he said. "Prices received off 20 per cent; prices paid off 3 per cent.

Go Down First, Fastest. "The implication for farmers is plain in the old familiar pattern of farm prices going down first and going down fastest." Brannan said federal production payments under his plan would hold up farm income while farm products would sell at what Secretary of Agriculture Brannan said today unless the nation solves the problem of farm surpluses we may "re-enact the tragedy of another farm-led depression." Noting that farm production is soaring while the prices farmers receive are dropping, the Cabinet officer declared that "failure to Advertisement FALSE TEETH GAS HEATING SERVICE, Inc.

I lM fT'iSTs hi k'i London, Sept. 28 (U.R) King George VI was disclosed tonight to have given his blessing to the engagement of the Marquess of Milford Haven, Britain's most eligible ycung bachelor, to Mrs. Romaine Simpson, American divorcee. Mrs. Simpson is recalled as a pretty little girl when she visited relatives in Louisville, says a story on Page 10, Section 2.

Press agent Frank Shaw, who yesterday issued a Hollywood-type press release announcing the young nobleman's engagement, said Milford Haven wrote the King informing him of his intentions and that the King sent back his "best wishes" late today. (At Cannes, France, the Marchioness of Milford Haven said that she "approved entirely" of her son's engagement to Mrs. Simpson. "She's a charming woman," the Marchioness said.) Earlier in the day, the Marquess held a press conference at Claridge's Hotel, with his fiancee sitting by his side. Milford Haven said he had written the King "as a matter of courtesy," although he said he felt that he was so far removed from possible succession to the Crown that he did not come under the Marriage Act of 1772.

That act makes it mandatory for the King to consent to royal betrothals. Milford Haven said the ceremony would be held "definitely in Washington at the home of Mrs. Simpson's mother at the end of November. The best man will be British and there will be several maids of honor." Mrs. Simpson squeezed his and remarked, "I am very Stem, Vienna-born concert pianist, helda final rehearsal today for their wedding tomorrow in old St.

Mark's Church. King George, Queen Elizabeth, Princess Elizabeth, the Duke of Edinburgh, and Princess Margaret left Balmoral Castle in Scotland for London by royal train to attend the ceremony. The Duke and Duchess of Gloucester joined the train at Perth. They will be among 900 guests to see the 26-year-old Earl, 11th in line for the throne, and his commoner fiancee married by the bishop of Ripon.
