QUEEN CONDEMNS
PRINCESS BOOK
TO THE FLAMES

London, June 1S.--The discovery
that Princess Patricia, daughter of
the Duke of Connaught, former Gov
ernor General of Canada, has writ
ten a book dealing with her eXper-
ience while in Canada and her inn
pressons when she visited the United
States, is causing a great deal Of talk
among the English royal encourage,
not only because nobody ever sus-
pected the charming young woman
.of being an authoress, but especially
because Of the fact that Queen Mary
has requested the Duchess of Con-
naught to have the manuscript burn
ed. State secrets are said to be re-
vealed.
Several weeks ago the Princess Pa
tricia loaned the manuscript to a
friend and this friend in turn showed
Ii to the Countess of Fortescue. lady
in waiting to the Queen, and she
promptly took the work to Queen
Mary.
Queen Fails to Return Book.
From the furore 1t has created 1t
is certain the manuscript will be
most interesting. The Princess is
anxious to have her work back, but
Queen Mary has thus far failed to
return it. s rtWs
Princess Patricia had ample op-
portunity to form impressions Of the
people of both Canada and the United
States, in the former instance, es-
pecially. while living in Ottawa dur
ing the time her father was Governor
General.
When she visited the United States
in January, 1912, she had an oppor-
tunity to study the American people
at close range. While in New York
City as the guests of the late Ambas-
sador Red, the vice regal marty was
entertained on a LAWS scale and In
their journeyings about the city
rubbed elbows" with the people al
large.
Found New York Courteous.
Il was instructed, but never an
|noyed," declared the Duke of Con-
naught, con the occasions when
ventured out afoot by the press OF
crowds. And have found that New
Workers are courteous people,"
The drastic action of Queen Mary
has given the impression that the
Princess Patricia may have struck 9
discordant note in this expression oi
appreciation by her father, althougT
she was quoted while in New Yorf
as saying;
"The people of New York have
done us the honor to accept us a'
one of them. We are grateful. Yonl
country is marvellous, your city is re
markable, and your citizens are
