LONDON, December 11.-"Uncle
Davids" abdication spelled just one
hour recess from lessons for little,
fair-haired Princess Elizabeth.
The stirring events In London
brought the 10-year-old daughter Of
the new British King and Queen next
in line for the throne.
Some day she may rule the British
Empire rs Queen Elizabeth II, but
what counts at the moment Is that
hours respite from the daily educa-
tional chores. s.
A person in close touch with the
royal household disclosed today the
princess fair head was bent over her
books when her mother, Britain's new
Queen, entered her school room and
gently told her the important tidings.
But because it is not good for little
girls to know too much, she was not
told she was now . more important
parsonage herself as heir presumptive
to the throne.
Sharp Witted Girl.
If she didn't understand the full
significance of what her mother told
her, she was shrewd enough to know
something Of exceeding importance
had happened.
Much of the tenseness Of the mo-
ment was communicated to Princess
Elizabeth" said q witness Of the
drama, for she's an astute, sharp
witted little girl.
For days she has been asking ques-
tions. Naturally. she was told nothing
of the true gravity Of events.
"But, In driving to and from Wind
sor, she has frequently caught sight Of
newspaper posters bearing the Kings
name. She has piled her attendants
with questions regarding what was
happening to Uncle David"
The princess and her young sister,
Princess Margaret Rose, were expected
shortly to be taken 70 the royal lodge,
Windsor.
Meanwhile. some far-seeing specu-
lators wondered If there might be
another royal marriage crisis when the
time comes to pick q husband fol
Princess Elizabeth.
There's the possibility, Of course
that the birth of q brother would dis
place the princess as heir presumptive
Otherwise, If Elizabeth is to become
Queen, her husband, whether she
should marry before or after taking
the throne, would be prince consort-
not King
In the eyes Of conservative England

Queen is even more important than
the choice Of q Queen for q King on
the theory that . husband has more
ability to influence his wife.
Every year will be leap year for
Elizabeth, since she can follow the
example Of her great-great-grand-
mother, Victoria. and propose to the
man she chooses.
The first Queen Elizabeth remained
the Virgin Queen, the memory of her
sister Mary's marriage to Phillip Of
Spain, later England's arch-enemy,
fresh in her mind.
The crown was voted jointly to Will

Yet, England has always believed 1t

LONDON, December 1.-The fu-
ture income Of Edward Windsor was
o question mark tonight.
Whether the man who gave up the
throne Of England will accept a PEN
sion from the government was one
Of the abd1cation details remaining
unannounced, but 1t was generally
taken for granted he would have ample
means, from one source or the other.
It had been assumed he would re-
tain at least part Of the half-million-
dollar annual income from the Duchies
Of Lancaster and Cornwall.
But the abdication bill title phrase,
"demise Of the CROWN" seemed to in
dicate this was impossible. The closest
historical parallel was when the
Stuarts were replaced by Edwards s
Hanoverian ancestors, to whom all
crown lands were promptly trans
ferred.
A reigning King receives f43.00o
sterling ($2l5.000) from Lancaster
Since birth, Edward has got approx
mately $4,000 (s350,000D annually
from Cornwall, always designed for
the Kings eldest son.
Applied Income on Salary.
To save the British taxpayer money,
Edward, after allotting f25,000 ($125,-
000) to the Duke of York, has applied
this private income since his accession
against his salary" as King. The lat
ter Is fixed by the civil list and, In Ed
wards case, totaled $4,000 ($2,050,-
000). Had he married, retaining the
throne. there would have been f40, ,00C
(s200,00O more each year.
The civil list is paid out III view
of the Kings surrender of income
from other crown lands, which Is paid
into the treasury. King George re-
ceived f470,o00 (s2,350,00O and. since
his death, the widowed Queen Mary
has received 10000 ($350, ,000).

In the latter event he could retain
