WAR REMOVES OBSTACLES
RETURN TO ENGLAND DUKE OF WINDSOR (British Official Wireless.) Reed. 9 a.m. RUGBY, Sept. 9. Commenting on the report that the Duke and Duchess of Windsor are leaving Antibes, France, for England, The Times says the announcement will cause no surprise and still less any kind of contention. ‘‘lt has always been assured that war would sweep away difficulties there may have been in the way of the Duke’s earlier return,” state The Times. ‘‘No one could dream o: the Duke’s absence from England at a time at which absence would become an intolerable exile, or suppose for a moment that anything would be lacking on the Government’s part to speed the fulfilment of his dearest and most urgent wish.”
