1t is this that is causing A,exander's

should Alexander return.
Another cause Of King Alexander's
delay in Paris is reported to be the

in Paris that Alexander is remaining
there because he is devoted to d young
French woman, who would not be ac-
ceptable as Queen of the Jugo-Slavs.
Another version is that this acouaint-

to few days ago, has been abandoned
