 London, May 16,-Wiro, women and song - too much wire, too many women and loo much soug - have led 10 the roya. bad rgE of Europe, Prince George Of JuEo- Slayla, being locked up m d prl>atc madhoUsr where hnr.1frr h. VII not be able 70 trouble he saroH.y or his royal brother, l>lng A,,Aan- der, whosr throne he should really 10 occupying,
 That's thr real truth behind ,he communiTle recently lssucI by the Jugo-Slaylan premier:
 "In view ol tha state of hoo'th Of Prince George. elder urotu,r of King Alexander. witch is such that he urgrn'ly needs d change in tho manner Of his life and h,ing put under tha constant supervision ot a doctor. the king has indicated un- der the royal family law. d race Of permanent residence for Prince George ana appointed a special doctor"
 All of which means - cNit Prince George from the EuroNraD scene. It's the most amazing tag in the history of modern royalty. Up to about 1905, when ho attained Is majority - IS -- he was almos, d model prince. He was tho e.jcs. son, and heir 10 the Serbian throne. He was the apple Of the eye of his father, old King Peter, who, on hts eighteenth birthday, hrrurn tha as- semb)ed regiments of the nation said 10 him:
 My dear son, my 1ov at your birth IS years ago nas Er,at, To- day when you enter tuc officers corps Of my brave army my pride IS greater. With the hep of TroNt- dence you will one day inherit rho Serbian throne and will ho the high est officer in the army in which you today step as IicUanaut."
 In less than SIX months George had made himself the talk and scandal of the Balkans. He beat his aides. He dressed as King and held drunken orgies. He threatened 10 horsewhip the premier, He drove q car al wild speed through the nar- row, i,l-paved streets Of Belgrade. He paid swift court to pretty actresses in Vienna,
 He was mad about pretty women. One day passing down a Degrade street he saw tho picture Of Nile. Laurel, an actress. He secured her address and posted proposal of marriage.
 Having quarre}ed with another pretty actress, he made disparaging remarks about her. She appeared at the Bear restaurant in Belgrade and publicly horsowhipped him. Of course, she was arrested, but the national feeling was on her side and the matter was discreety dropped,
 It is estimated he proposed mar riage to al least so pretty women, He was the universal lover, paying court 10 girls of all nations.
 The climax 10 his career came when his valet mys.eriously died There were sinister rumors con- nected with this and in 1909 Prince George, to the relief of 1hc nation, was induced to renounce his rights to the throne.
 For a time he lived quietly in re- tirement. When the first Ba.Ear war broke out he asked for q com, mand, but was refused and wa' greatly enraged when his youngci brother. the present King AleXan. der. was given an army, Then ht complained that he was not given af allowance compatible with his rani and position. He wrote letters tr the Bo.SraIc papers attacking th' royal family.
 For time his brother condnc, him to residence in Nish. Released from exile. hc once more appearcD in Belgrade and would drive arouu' town in his car distributing poster insulting 10 lis brother, inc king One Of taose roal "B,"are of th. fellow wrH Tho bs= rcd Hosc."
