Everybody knows that she inherited

her second husband, William p. Leeds.
the founder Of "the Tin Plate trust" This
must necessarily be a consideration TO

that most OF the fortune is situated in

sideration
Exactly what precedence will be given
to the new Princess Christopher of Greece
at the various Courts is not yet settled.
but 1t appears that she will be warmly
welcomed in the palaces of royalty.
1t is significant that before her marriage
Mrs. Leeds was received into the Greek
orthodox Church and was baptized with
the name "Anastasia" in accordance with
the rule that everyone must bear the name
of a saint OF the church This was evil
IDENTIFY done in anticipation that the Prince
and his bride would take part actively in
the affairs of the royal family Of Greece.
The constitution Of the country requires
that the king and queen and the royal
princes shall belong to the Orthodox
church. The step taken by Mrs. Leeds
would hardly have been necessary if the
couple had intended to spend their lives
in Switzerland, on the Riviera, and at the
various cosmopolitan pleasure resorts of
Europe. 1t is, therefore, taken as an in.
dication OF the new Princess's intention
to be an active figure in Greece.
1t is interesting to note that the former
Mrs. Leeds has been quite friendly with
Eleutherios VeniZelos, the leading C,reoIt
statesman With her customary tact sho
explained to correspondents after her we'd.
