Rumanian Princess Now
Seen As a Possible
Future English Queen

Paris, March Another queen
with some beautiful daughters in
tow is headed for London. II is
Queen Marie Of Rumania. with Prin-
cesses Elizabeth. Marie and Ilesna.
all three Summers. and Of marriage
able age.
The published purpose Of the jour
ney is a visit to the son OF Prince
Nicholas. a student in London, but
already in Paris loose tongues are
busily gossipinE about another
choice offered to the Prince Of Wales
for the future British Queen.
Recently Queen Helena Of Italy
with two marriaEeablC daughters
was here Ostensibly TO visit her
father the King Of Montenegro, but
by some chance they selected the
same hotel as the Prince OF WRks
who was visiting Paris incognito,
initiating the example Of bis grand
father. the late King Edward VII.
Nevertheless. the Italian Embassy
published formal dcnials Of the
rumored Engagement which was
hindered by differences OF religion.
1t is now believed that the Rumsn-
ian Queen will try her luck and.
being Of English birth herself. she
may have a better chahce OF ac-
complishing her object.
The surmises of the gossips seem
plausible enough. New Rumanis,
with the added provinces OF Bess-
arabia, the Bukovina and Temes-
var. will comprise territory with
l6. 900. 600 inha bitsnts.
