War Duties Keep Royalty Busy
Visiting Land, Sea And Air Forces
Carry Gas
Masks Just
In Case?
BY MILTON BRONNER
YEA Service staff Cnrresnnnde


London, Sept. i8.-Ging George
VI and queen Elizabeth, In their
new roles as leaders of q nation at
war, are the same bright-pirited,
tireless and hammered couple
whom America saw as tourists last
spring,
For obvious reasons the censors
forbid chronicle of where the King
and Queen are, what towns they
visit, in what places they spend the
night, etc. But this can be said:
Ever since war was declared,
King George has been busy visit
ing various detachmentS Of the
land, air and sea forces OF his
country,
He has inspected the men. He
has visited their living quarters.
He has sampled their food. He has
shown his close interest in every
thing that pertains to them.
QUEEN CARRIES
A GAS MASK
The Queen has been just MS ac-
tive. She has gone about, carrying
her gas mask on her arm, just as
millions of other women do In the
main she has inspected the various
women's auxiliary organizations
which are carrying on so many i'm
portant tasks for the nation at war.
Everywhere she has displayed
the ready comprehension which
impressed her hosts in the United
States and Canada. Everywhere
she has displayed the same ma
tural, easy, infectious, CHEEKY
smile which American photo
graphers, during her visit in the
United states, made familiar to
millions.
In the last war, when restric-
tons were placed upon the
amount Of light, heat and food
people should have, the late King
George v ordered the same state
OF things where he lived, The
present royal couple will follow
his example.
KING is VETERAN
OF WORLD WAR
In the last war the present King
Georges father frequently went TO
the battle fields Of France to be
with his troops and hearten them
by his evident interest In their well
fare. The present Duke Of Windsor
too, was with the troops through
out the war.
But in even greater position Of
risk, II Is recalled, was the pres
ent King. The then Prince AL
bert was a subaltern officer, serv-
ing In one OF the battleships
which took part In the great bat
tie Of Jutland. He was in charge
Of o gun turret.
Now, careful general officers
can see TO II that royalty Is not
toe much exposed when with the
land forces, but there is simply no
ruslay Job on o battleship in bat
tie. German shells, when they
crashed, would make no differ
ence between plain sailor John
Smith and a kings son.
60 the present king took his
chances like the rest Of the on
GERS and men In that great battle,
And today he Is showing that he
still Is not one TO hide away.
