SECRECY IN DEPARTURE

PARIS. Oct. 20 (Associated Press) -
King Alexander. whose acceptance of the
crown CT Jugo-Slavia has been In doubt
for two months. started on his return
trip to Belgrade early tonight. Special
efforts were made to keep his departure
secret. the French Foreign Office being
notified only few minutes before the
train left
Alexander expressed annoyance at the
display of police at the Care de Lyon.
where he boarded the train. but the
police measures appeared to be justified,
as two suspicious looking Slavs. listed
on police records as dangerous anar-
chists" were caught lowering about the
station platform They were detained
until after the train left
Alexander entered the station through
side entrance and remained in the
stationmaster's quarters until a few
minutes before the train left when he
walked briskly the fifty yards to his car
As Alexander. who was pale and drawn
and appeared to be nervous, stepped
aboard he shook hands with Prefect Of
Iolice Leutner and a few Serbian
friends, remarking: II am very happy
to so back to my people,"
Members of the Kings party were
greatly annoyed when news Of the de-
pdfture became known outside Alexan-
6er's immediate encourage, as. 1t was
hoped to reach Belgrade secretly. The
tlpiE was due to arrive at Belgrade at
about IL o'clock Monday night.
French official circles are greatly re-
lieved that Alexander Is about to take
the. throne. as 1t has been said here that
the delay has caused considerable un-
certainty and restlessness in the Bal
kans. The Kings party has been anxious
t. make it known that the delay In his
return has been due only to his illness.
Alexander proclaimed acceptance OF
the crown from Paris on August II. and
the doctors announced that he had re-
covered from his illness on August 80.
After this repeated arrangements made
for his return to Belgrade were not car
rled out. but Jugo-Slav officials in Paris
refused an explanation.
