MAYOR OF BELFAST
CANCELS INVITATION
Rv Tho Ilnilod Press.

BY The United Press
LONDON, Feb. 5.-When King
George and Queen Mary arrived here
today and were greeted by thousands
of cheering subjects they found that
the Irish had injected one bitter drop
i'm the toast of welcome. Orangemen
and Catholics alike had refused to
participate in officially welcoming
their majesties.
When the royal train pulled into the
Victoria station. hundreds of glitter
ing officials were on hand. In addition
to the nobility and government Of
ficials there were scores of mayors
from England. Scotland and Wales,
all resplendent in their robes and
chains of office but there was none
from Ireland. The Lord Mayor Of Bel
fast was the only Irish mayor TO ac-
cept an invitation 20 participate and
he cancelled his acceptance because
of the bitterness among the Orange
men over the home rule demonstration
scheduled at Belfast on February
The enthusiasm that greeted the
royal tourists on their return from the
Dnrbar festivities recompensed their
majesties for the snub from ireland.
A sOvereign's escort of life guards, re-
splendent in FURNISHED cuirasses and
helmets, led the procession. the King
and Queen. the Prince of Wales and
Princess Mary riding in an open car
riage followed by other members Of

AS the carriages passed along the
route TO the palace the immense
throngs sang the national anthem and
cheered noisily.
After the arrival at the palace, sew
