Des Moines. Sept 2G--Ciov. Harding
will extend n most cordial invitation
to King Albert and Queen Elizabeth
Of Belgium to visit Iowa on their trip
which they are now planning. The
first word the governor had of their
coming was the telegram received from
Acting Secretary of State Phillips ut
Washington, d. c., which read:
Their majesties the king and queen
Of the Belgians have. indicated de-
sire to visit Davenport, l am COM
municating with the mayor and / hope
that you will find it possible TO coop
.erate with him and to be there at the
time of the visit of their majesties.
Il am, sending by mail under sep
arate cover "a list of the royal party
and their suite in the order of their
rank, together with list of their cor
rect titles and designations. L hope
it will be possible for you to extend an
invitation thru the secretary of state
for the king and queen of the Belgians
to accept the hospitality of your
state" g.. -...
No information further than this
telegram has been received by the
governor officially, so he does not
know when King Albert and his party
are epected nor any of the plans OF
the trip. Unofficial word received here,
however. is to the effect that the party
probably will be in Davenport about
Oct. II. The king and his party are
now on the high seas en- route to this
country.
There is probably no monarch con-
cerned in the worlds war who stands
out in the minds of the people here as
a more heroic figure than King Albert
of Belgium whose people offered them
selves a living sacrifice at the very
beginning of the war to save France
and who never faltered until the war
was won. go.

Of Jones' alleged craftiness In helping

that the first car Of this series OF thefts

he later abandoned the Cadillac and
