KUssNACHT, Switzerland, Aug.
20 U.N.S0.-I was working at my
post in q glass factory near the
scene of the accident this morn.
ing when someone ran up ana
told me Queen Astrtd OF Belgium
had lost her life.
I ran out to the spot. I saw
the Kings automobile overturned
In three feet Of water. Nearby
were two trees which had been
damaged when the car plunged
into them.
7 saw o man standing dazedly
on q small grassy slope leading
from the road to the water. He
told me he was the chauffeur OF
the royal car.
Then I noticed . woman lying
stretched out on the slope. She
had terrible head wounds. She
had lived only two minutes after
the accident. She was dressed in
q tweed sports outfit, and the i'm.
pact Of the crash had torn and
dirtied her clothes.
A man in a sports suit was walk
ing distractedly up and down
along the edge Of the lake. His
face was covered with blood from
q severe cut on the lower part Of
his cheek and jaw.
The chauffeur told me he was
the King Of the BelgianS.
The King walked in q daze
toward the body Of the Queen.
A doctor who had reached the
scene tried to break the news to
him that Astrid was dead. He
nodded his head but did not ap-
pear to understand.
Someone asked the King how
the accident occurred. It seemed
he did not understand what had
happened at all. He made no
answer but walked away.
Then after a moment or two
the King returned and folded her
in his arms and kissed her and
then picked her up and carried
her to the side Of the road. He
appeared to be on the point Of
collapse. With the doctor I sug-
gested he return his villa. He
staggered but I caught his arm
and led him to a car which took
him to the house where he had
been staying,

KING LEOPOLD DESCRIBES CRASH IN WHICH QUEEN LOST LIFE
Queens Death
Is Shock To
All Belgium

BRUSSELS, Aug. 40 GN.sJ.
Grief spread throughout Belgium
today when word of the tragic
death Of Queen Astrid in an au.
tomobile accident in Switzerland
was received by her loving SUBJ
jectS.
A vast crowd gathered outside
the royal palace. Many women
were weeping and men stood with
barred heads as they read a brief
death notice affixed to the palace
gates.
Those closest to the gates read
the few lines aloud, and they were
repeated by those in back.
A special cabinet meeting was
called to draft proclamation Of
national mourning. Burgomaster
Max, Of Brussels ordered posters
displayed throughout the city an
nouncing the tragic news.
The government promptly
closed the Bourse. All theaters and
motion picture houses voluntarily
suspended performances, posting
notices there would be no shows
tonight.
The Queen mother, widow Of
King Albert, was informed Of the
tragedy at Naples, where she has
been living in recent months.

HULL Leads Diplomats
In Voicing Sympathy
To Embassy Here

Black mourning for the sudden
death of Queen Astrid Of Belgium
cast its shadow over diplomatic
Washington today.
The flag over the Belgian EN-
bassy was at half staff to remain
that way until after the funeral
in Brussels, and attaches Of the
embassy Immediately went into
mourning for the beautiful queen
who was killed today in an auto
mobile crash in Switzerland.
Soon after the news Of the
young queens tragic death was
published, the sympathy Of other
nations was conveyed to Belgium
through the regular diplomatic
channels.
Hull Voices Sympathy
Secretary Of state Cordell Hull
carried his country's sympathy to
Prince Eugene de Ligne, Belgian
charge d'affaires. The Secretary
went to the Belgian Embassy &C.
companied by James c. Dunn,
chief of the division Of western
affairs Of the State Department,
and Richard Southgate, chief OF
the division Of protocol.
The niece Of King Gustav v Of
Sweden, Queen Astrid was loved
by Sweden's representatives here,
who Immediately dispatched the
Swedish charge d'affaires, Per
Wijkman, to convey their SYM
pathy.
The flag at the Swedish Lega-
ton also was at half staff.
Augusta RoSso, Italian Ambas-
sador, also was among the first
to call at the Belgian Embassy
with the sympathy Of his country.
First news of the tragedy was
communicated to the Belgian
Embassy at GAS a. m. this morn
ing by The Washington Times. In
the absence of the Belgian am
bassador, Count Robert van der
Straten.Ponthoz, the Belgian EN-
bassy is in charge Of Prince Eu.
