Guns boomed a royal salute as the king and queen cut across a red carpet to a dais where two wooden thrones were set up at the east end of the landing stage. Gold crowns surmounted the thrones and the dais was splashed with the red of long-temmed roses in vases.

 Brown coated motor cycle police men of the city of Quebec went ahead of the royal automobile as out riders in the slow procession along the Plains of .-braham.
 King George and Queen Elizabeth waved almost continuously as the crowd attempted to push in closer to their car. The motorcycle escort formed in the shape of a wedge, clearing and widening lane for the kings car.
 Crowds Were Immense
 Crowds stood five and ten deep along the Grande Alice. War vet erans had preferred positions and bands were drawn up every half mile. Their Majesties made the slow journey with music in their ears all the way. Naval units in full dress uniforms saluted their

 Dispute On Numbers
 Objective estimates of how many miners have returned to work were not obtainable in this county long known for its labor laws. The Na- tional Guard refused to estimate. Coal operators said 1900 men were working; the union said not more than 75O.
 While violence had been for the most part absent in the new contro- versy between the union miners and operators, potential trouble was foreseen in the statement of union officials that all but two company stores had ceased extending credit to non-working miners.
 .. George s. Ward, secretary of the Harlan County Coal Operators As sociation said he did not know that company credit had been stopped. But George J. Hitler, sec- retary- treasurer of the UNIV, said all but the United States Coal and Coke Co.,, Lynch, Ky, and the Black Mountain Corporation, Kenvir, Ky, yesterday stopped the $1 per day maximum credit permitte dminers since the shutdown began April 1.

almost as important to success of the European anti-aggression front as Soviet Russia because the Mos lemS are aStride vital British and French communications lines. That, in part at least, accounted for the change of plans in London some months ago that led to the new plan for solution of the Palestine conflict on grounds opposed by Jews.
 The settlement to be announced was understood to envisage state in which Arabs and Jews would have proportionate representation and thus the larger Arab population would have dominant role in the Holy Land, where in 1917 the Britt ish government agreed to establish Jewish homeland. The Arabs would have about three to one representa- tion in the legislature.
 While Arabs celebrated the settle ment, Jewish leaders planned to re- SiSt by cooperation in order to frustrate the plan. Jewish extrem- istS were planning more vigorous resistance with arms.
 British to Enforce
 Tn London, however, the British government appeared determined to enforce the new proposals with whatever means prove necessary in order to avoid stirring up Arab hostility over a huge near eastern and north African area that might prove a grave blow in event of further tension in Europe.
 Progress in British negotiations to bring Russia into the anti-aggres- sion front continued vague, but it was considered certain that the London cabinet was 'unbending" in order to take step toward meet ing Moscow's demands for broader and more binding mutual aid type of agreement. This will probably in- volve approval of Russian quaran- tees for security of the Baltic states of Lithuania, Latvia, Esthonia and Finland and a pledge to Britain and France to aid the SovietS in event of 8 war in Europe.
 In any event, British. spokesnen have recognized the principle that 8 war involving Britain, France or Russia would be virtually certain to bring all three powers into the con- f1ict.
 French diplomatic quarters re- ported today that Great Britain was considering an effort to line up countries of the Moslem world in a solid bloc, supplementing the Brit ish-French security front, to oppose Nazi-Fascist expansionist policies.

and Afghanistan, with Turkey as the key nation, were mentioned as likely members of such bloc.
 Some sources reported that the British government already had put out feeler as regards Egypt and the Arab states.
 Any such bloc would ensure com- munications in the eastern medi- terranean and the Red Sea. Even if participation in the security front were passive, the guaranteed neutrality would safeguard Britain's communications to India and the Far East.

 The king and queen went through the main entrance of the building for a reception in the legislative as- sembly chamber.
 Members of the royal entourage said neither the king nor queen had suffered the slightest illness during the Atlantic crossing. Queen Elizabeth appeared to be in bloom ing health. Her eyes were bright, her color fresh and she was ani- mated. The king looked more fit today than he did a few weeks ago when this correspondent saw him in London.
 Royal Standard Run Up
 The royal standard was run up over the legislative building during the reception at which the king and queen greeted municipal, provincial and dominion officials.
 Speaking in French, M. Duplessis, Prime Minister of Quebec, gave Their Majesties "the salute of Que- bec::"
 "In carried circumstances it has been our privilege to hail the pas- sage among us of many illustrious persons, even of princes of the glood, but never until this moment have we enjoyed the signal honor of re- paivi1U tha vicit 0f Ollr royal cnv- ereigns, nor the happiness of con- veying to them by word of mouth our homage and our wishes. Unanim- ous in heart, then, we acclaim today the presence of Your Majesty in our ancient capital"
