There's Much Hysteria Abroad.
The statement made or limited at by
some historical journals that the success
sion Of the Prince OF Wales to the throne
Is endangered by the scandal may safely
be classed as political nonsense. If the
prince survives his royal mother his right
TO the throne is incontestible. No Eng

It, No party, certainly none that was
strong enough to have position to put
at hazard, would run the risk of raising
question fraught with such grave posi-
bilities of disturbance socially and finani-
cially as well as politically. The Tranby
Croft affair Is too trivial and ephemeral
an issue TO count for anything in unset
ting the royal succession. The NIordaunt
divorce case was vastly more serious, yet
within twelve-month of that damaging
scandal the prince had fully recovered his
popularity
