The Duke of Kent will ar

on the train bringing the
President back from Hyde
Park. The time of the Presi-
dents arrival is never an
nounced.
The Duke will leave almost
at once for Norfolk from Naval
Air Station at Anacostia for
inspection of naval and air ia
cihties in the Norfolk area. He
will fly back to Washington the
same day in time to reach the
White House for dinner at s.
He will lard, on his return jour-
ney from Norfolk, at Boiling
Field.

tentatively scheduled at the

name almost the whole roster Of
r. A. r. pilots.
Because the persons of royalty are
accounted invaluable, the Duke is
forbidden the joys Of flying to air
battle over the Continent. He has
been q sort of nnofncial air force
ambassador between the r. A. F.
and the Allied flyers lighting along
side the English. Before he left
England in July for Canada. he
visited the Polish and the Czech
flyers in England.
He is a better friend than his elder
brothers Of David, Duke Of Windsor,
but they are not expected to see
each other in North America. He
looks q bit like the Duke Of Windsor
and a bit like the King. The King
among hts intimates Is known as
Albert or BERTHE, although omcially
he is George. The Duke Of Kent is
known among his friends as George.
Went to Sea at Is.
Scion of a sea-loving line of kings,
George became q midshipman at a
tender age, and at IS he was sent
to sea. during the World War. He
was at Constantinople attached to
the English ships participating in
he naval occupation of Turkey after
the World War.
During the World War. Capt.
Lord Mountbatten was on Admiral
Beatty's flagship, first the Lion. then
the Queen Elizabeth. He Is brave
fellow who likes to laugh when peo-
pie ask him whether he does not
consider life at sea in wartime
dangerous.
Before he was sent to the United
States. Capt. Lord Mountbatten was
on the most dangerous duty in the
English naval service-captain of the
5th Destroyer F1otilla, patrolling the
English Channel.
A naval colleague now in Wash
ington last year saw him come
ashore at Portsmouth. He acted as
though he had just returned from
an afternoon of quiet sailing near
q summer resort.
The captain was born at Windsor
Castle June Is, 1900, the son of
Admiral of the Fleet Prince Louis
of Battenberg and of Princess Vic

The royal entourage reached

Smiling broadly, the tanned, hat

from the bomber, shook hands with
Mayor La Guardia and then waved

than 1000 persons whom police es-

said.
He said he had been in the United

at Cat Cay in the Bahamas while
the Duke was on his honeymoon.

For Capt. Lord Mountbatten this

the United States has q decided ro-
mantle flavor.
He came here in 1922 on his honey
moon. He married Edwina, the eld-
est daughter of the late Lord Mount
Temple, colonel of the Grenadier
Guards and later Minister of Trans
port. She is with him now.
Two years after his marriage Lord
Mountbatten was back here once
more with his cousin the Prince Of
Wales. !
His experience in this war makes
an exciting story of endless action.
In simple chronological outline it
goes thus:
August, 1899, before the war actu-
ally began, he commissioned the de-
stroyer Kelly.
December. 1899. the Kelly hit q
North Sea mine and Lord Mount
batten took over another destroyer
while the Kelly was being repaired.
April, 1910, back on the Kelly;
that ship and others in the Fifth
Destroyer Flotilla fought IN the
NorWeigian campai1n.
May 8, 1910, the Kelly was tor
pedoed OF German minefield.
Lord Mountbatten unscratched.

But those days are gone. Prince
George Edward Alexander Edmund
for two years now has put aside
simple and fancy pleasure for the
business of war and the duty Of
cheering the beleaguered men and
women of Britain.
He is the first member of the
British royal family whom Ameri-
cans have seen in this country since
the visit of the Dukes older brother,
King George vi, and Queen Eliza
beth in 1899.
But this summer brings royalty
and near royalty in profusion.

Duke of Windsor. will be, passing

way. Here he is to take command
of H. M. S. Illustrious. British air
craft carrier undergoing repairs in
American waters.
1t Is possible that Capt. Lord
Mountbatten. who went to sea at IL,
may be a guest at the White House
tomorrow night at the Presidents
dinner for His Highness the Duke.
The English get a lift from having
members of the royal family visit
bombed areas, inspect munitions
factories and call on the wounded
in the hospitals. The people ac-
customed to life in a monarchy take
heart from the knowledge that
dukes and kings are sharing their
burdens.
r. A. F. Wing Commander.
In this way the Duke and Duchess
of Kent have been busy. Further
more, he has won his wings in
the air.
Because he is the fifth gentle
man in England" member Of the
royal family, in line for the throne If
King George vi and his daughters
and the Duke of Gloucester should
die, he is a vice air marshal. But
for practical purposes he is a wing
commander in the r. A. r. And
it is in that capacity that he visits
the United States, for an inspection
tour of Canadian munitions plants
and air centers and Of American air
and naval bases.
The Duke of Kent and Capt. Lord
Mountbatten have some things in
common, principally their early as
sociation with naval fighting. The
duke is 80. the captain Al.
Before the war began the duke,
who was born December 20. 1902.
was known as a wonderful dancer
and as an excellent shot with the
shotgun. His wife wore her clothes
better, perhaps, than any duchess or
princess. She was the Princess
Marina, daughter of the late Prince
Nicholas of Greece, who married
into the House of Windsor at West
minister Abbey on November 29, 1884.
Forbidden to Fly in Battle.
But they had their serious side.
The Duke of Kent has an Unsuitable
interest in things and in people.
He is q quiet man, as King George
is, but he Is at ease, and he puts
others at ease. Having put them at
ease, he questions them in order to
add to his sum OF knowledge.
It is reported here by British who
have seen him abroad during the
war that he knows by sight and by
