BRITISH QUEEN
 SLIGHTLY ILL
Orders Given to Newspa= pers Not to Favor Prin=
 cess Elizabeth

Windsor, England, April 9. (UP) Queen Elizabeth is suffering from a slight head cold and is remaining indoors at Windsor Castle as a pre- caution, it was announced today. The cold will prevent her accom- panying King George at the annual service of the Knightly Order of St. Michael and St. George at St. Paul's Cathdral in London tomorrow, it was said. It was noted that in a picture posed in Windsor park yes terday, on the occasion of the 18th birthday of Princess Elizabeth, heir presumptive to the throne, the king appeared with Princess Elizabeth and her younger sister Princess Margaret Rose, but the Queen was not present. In sending this picture to the newspapers, Windsor Castle officials pasted 8 notice on the back of 1t:
 Must Not Be Cut
 Tt is the special request of the king that Princess Margaret Rose shall not be cut out of any of these pictures"
 This was done because the King and Queen frown on any tendency toward giving Princess Elizabeth too much publicity: They realize that in her position she must be sub pected to considerable amount of public attention. They want pulp licity minimized so that the Princess may be brought up as normal child. She is inperious, as it is, and frequently asserts her seniority over her sister in "commands"-which are usually not obeyed.
 The newspapers respect the wish of the royal family that the princess be treated as a child, and thus the newspapers this morning gave only a few inconspicuous paragraphs to yesterdays birthday celebration.
