(AP Wirephoto) U.K. Press Urges Repeal Of Royal Marriages Act By RONALD THOMSON LONDON (AP)--Three Lon- don newspapers today urged Parliament to, repeal. George Til's royal marriage law so Queen Elizabeth won't have to} decide whether her first cousin can marry the mother of his illegitimate son. The Royal Marriages Act of 1772 was denounced on all sides as a museum piece of royal spite. It was brought to public attention again by the Earl of Harewood's announcement Mon- day that he is being divorced for adultery and wants to marry a former model who bore him a son 214 years ago. The 43-year-old earl is 18th in line of succession to the throne. His 40-year-old wife is expected to bring her divorce petition be- fore the courts next month. Under the ancient act, all members of the Royal Family} Self - Fluoridation Ignored Saskatchewan Ends Aid REGINA (CP) -- Self-fluori- dation has met a cool response) on the western Prairies -- so much that a Saskatchewan health department official said Tuesday a program of provid- ing free fluoridation pills will be phased out locally. Dr. H. E. Robertson, director of Saskatchewan's provincial laboratory, said the program will be discontinued at the mu- nicipal level because '"'so few people are taking advantage of it." Pills will be available from the provincial health depart- ment, but eventually not at mu- nicipal health clinics. In Alberta, Dr. C. L. Pear- son, assistant director of local health services, said the de- mand for fluoride tablets and liquid has been "much less than in. Saskatchewan." There had been no indication that suspen- sion of the program was consid- ered. Dr. Pearson said the public is "indifferent" to the year-old program. Most preferred fluori- dation in the water supply. The prospect of taking a tablet daily for years did not appeal to most people, he said. Alberta's entire supply of 3,- 000,000 tablets and 20,000 one- ounce bottles of liquid fluoride has been distributed, said Dr. A. T. Salter, director of provin- cial dental services. Demand and from municipal health nurses, Saskatchewan, which pro- vides free distribution to par- ents of children under 12 years through local health clinics, plans to limit its promotion campaigns. Some 80 communities in the province are switching to mu- nicipal fluoridation and 30 have natural fluoridation. Alberta has some 30 commun- ities which have, or are switch- ing to, fluoridation and another 29 with natural fluoridation. A big demand. for fluoride, Dr. Salter said, is in cities such as Lethbridge and Calgary in which flouridation was rejected by voters. Prognosticator Predicts Business Boom In Us. By EDDY GILMORE LONDON (AP) -- Business will be booming. in the United States and, taken all around, the year 1967 will be a better year for America than the last four have been... . The Viet Cong will tire of warfare before the United States does. A ceasefire will be brought about by the inter- vention of some third party. Communist China will be admitted to the United Na- tions... . Relations between the U.S. and the U.S.S.R. will improve during 1967. Who's predicting all this? An Englishman named Mau- rice Woodruff. In a book called Know To- morrow Today, prognosticator Woodraff makes 'the above predictions and many others. Last year he did the same thing. His publisher, the New English Library, says: HE'S SUCCESSFUL "Last year 87.5 per cent of his predictions proved cor- rect Here are some of his sooth- saying bulls' eyes scored last year: "A minor accident for Prin- cess Anne"--she was injured when thrown from a horse in Oxfordshire. "The birth of a second child --a girl -- to Princess Alex- andra"--she gave birth to a daughter July 31. "The downfall of Dr. Nkru- mah"--the president of Ghana was deposed Feb. 24. How does Woodruff do it? "Don't ask me to even try to tell you,' he replied. "I have the feeling that if I delve gift that is there... . "So far as I have been able to work it out, I- believe that 60 per cent comes from an in- born gift, 15 per cent is intul- tion, and 25 per cent sound, simple psychology, plus the knowledge of what makes peo- ple tick which comes from experience." His detractors say "lucky guessing." Whatever it is, he predicts for 1967: "A woman will be making a very big impression in Ameri- can political life... . "There is going to be a hell of a row in America over some attempts to restrict freedom of the press... . "One of the weddings of the year will be between a man with a British title and an American girl. "The popularity of Gen. De Gaulle will decrease. "I predict a change in the political leadership of the So- viet Union. As a result of this, Russia will becDme more sympathetic toward the West. : "Princess Soraya will marry a wealthy Frenchman. ~ "Tf Castro has not already disappeared from the scene by the end of 1966, this is some- thing that is likely to happen early in 1967. I see a hand of a relative in his ultimate downfall. . ... "In men's fashion we shall see a return of the walking stick to favor.

WOULD FACE PRESSURE As head of the Church of England, which opposes the re- ner is living, the Queen would' face clerical pressure to es her consent. The Conservative Daily Mall, | the Labor Sun and The Evening Standard, a Beaverbrook news- paper which takes an independ-| ent line, all urged repeal of the) 195-year-old act. So did Cyril Hankinson, former editor of De- brett's Peerage. Calling the act a "frowsty frowzy piece of legislation pushed through parliament by George III," Hankinson said the king "was furious at secret marriages made by his broth- ers, the Dukes of Cumberland jand Gloucester, to commoners, is far behind the/ supply available at health units/ |the Royal Family should have 'Most people today think that| the same rights as the Queen's other subjects when it comes to a personal matter like mar- riage." |STANDARD COMMENTS The Evening Standard com- ments; "There cannot be a good case for further' perpetuating the| spite of a dead king. . "Lord Harewood has behaved | perfectly reasonably since his marriage broke up. His re- strained and frank statement shows his anxiety--which every parent will understand--to leg- itimize his young son, Mark." The act permits Harewood to remarry without the Queen's consent if a year's notice is given to the Privy Council, the inner circle of advisers to the throne, and neither house of Parliament disapproves. No member of Parliament was con- sidered likely to invoke the act against the earl. Strike Losses $660,000 Daily SAULT STE. MARIE, Ont.
