Sidefights on Royal Visit

For Eagle Scout Walter Beach,
IT, of 5719 Chevy Chase Parkway
the high point of eight years OF
Boy Scout activities came yester-
day at the British Embassy.
Walter, selected to represent
the Boy Scouts of America at the
reception for Princess Elizabeth
and Philip, was questioned closely
by the royal couple about his
scouting career as he passed
through the receiving line. Later
the Duke stopped Walter to ask
more questions about how he won
his 26 merit badges.
Walter is a member of Troop
SO, which was selected to send q
representative. The flip of a coir
gave him the honor over other
Eagle Scouts of the troop.

Joseph w. Reap, State Depart.

visit, reminded the Duke they once
had played poker together in Aus
tralia. Each was on active duty
at the time.

than to play poker with you

searched his memory in vain fol
the incident.

House formed a line across the
front of the chamber to shake
hands with the royal visitors.
The royal couple left the Capitol
by the high marble steps at the
House end where they posed for
photographers before entering
their car to drive to, the White
House. ~ -r~
The royal couple were in top
form yesterday as they charmed
some 1900 guests who crowded
into the British Embassy to greet
them.
This was the largest throng by
far to exchange personal greet
ings with the royal couple during
their visit in Washington. For
each of their guests Elizabeth and
Philip had a smile and for many
some personal word.
And it was here that Elizabeth
told one Of the guests she shook
more hands than on any other
occasion in her life. Such large
scale handshaking is not custo-
mary at royal receptions at home.
But she seemed to enjoy it here.
Perhaps the big news for the
women was that the Princess wore
to the reception the same outfit
she had worn all day in ceremonial
visits to Mount Vernon and Ar
lington Cemetery and to a noon
reception at the Canadian En-
bassy for senior diplomatic rep
resentatives of Che British Com
countries.
Elizabeth changed the slate
blue dress she had put on in the
only at the end of the
day to don a turquoise and cream
brocade evening gown for the din
ner she and Philip gave in honor
of the President and Mrs. Truman
at the Canadian Embassy last
night.

ttion Wednesday, stopped often to
chat briefly.
But Philip, who also was OBJ
viously enjoying the prelude to
the more formal reception. stopped
even more often. He was ac-
companied by Lady Franks, who
several times had to wait for
Philip to catch up.
: For most of the crowd, it was
one of the greatest events OF
their lives.
That's the way Mrs. M. I. Smith
of 200 Quackenbos street NV,
described her seconds-long visit
with the Duke of Edinburgh.
He asked me where I was
from, and if I worked at the
Embassy" Mrs. Smith said. II
replied Bristol England, to the
first question, and yes to the lat
ter"
She said she had been an En-
bassy employe about nine years,
and never had seen the charm
ing Princess before. After the
couple went into the Embassy,
Mrs. Smith was the center of
attraction for many of her ac-
quaintances.
Crowd Gets a Laugh.
A note Of humor was injected
into the tour by the Princess.
She asked Miss Helen Wilson,
1922 I street NV, where she
was from and where she worked.
I'm from Huntington, Canada,
and I work at the South African
Embassy" Miss Wilson replied.
you're a bit mixed up. aren't
you?" the Princess observed, smil-
ing. Those within hearing dis
tance laughed.
The Princess and the Duke,
parents of two small children,
stopped to speak to or admire
small children held up by proud
parents.
Tears Of joy rolled down the
cheeks of one mother after Eliza
beth stopped to admire the small,
Ired-haired girl with her.
Although plans called for the
couple to re-enter their car after
a brief review Of the waiting sub
jects. the Princess kept walking
up the sidewalk, past the front of
the Embassy and the dark-green
canopies set up at two entrances.
The Princess turned down a
driveway at the extreme opposite
end of the Embassy. AS Philip
followed. the crowd surged in be-
hind them. seeking another glance.

tators lifted their cameras ovel

their heads and shot blind in an
effort to get another picture of the
couple.
Police kept the crowd back, and
had to force open a lane to let
the Princess limousine through
to follow them.
AS the couple disappeared from
lsight. the crowd dispersed. But
about 100 persons remained
lpressed against the rope on the
other side Of the street. Most
stayed until the reception broke
up at dark.
Guests at the reception entered
under a canopy on the west end o1
the Embassy. They checked theil
tcoats at large tent erected fol
that purpose just inside the
grounds. ~.
When they left, they picked ur
their craps at the other side oi
the tent and departed under a
canopy there.
Each guest with a car and driver
was handed a number as he en-
tered. When he left, he gave the
number to an attendant. The
attendant then called-by walkie-
Italkie-to the parking area or
tWhitehaven parkway.
Cars usually drew up at the curl
about the time the owner reached
the sidewalk.

Congress In session, they were
Igreeted by delegations from both
houses.
The royal couple displayed O
keen interest in the organization
of the American law making body
as officials led them through both
chambers, the rotunda and
Statuary Hall.
In the Senate, Leslie L. Biff1e
secretary of the Senate, led the
Princess up to the clerks desk
and explained the layout of the
greatest deliberative body in the
world.
Paintings Are Pointed Out.
In the rotunda. Arthur E. Cook
assistant architect of the Capitol
called the attention of the Prin-
cess to the painting of the bap-
tism of Pocahontas at jamestown
Va, because her mother and
father stood at that spot to re-
ceive members of Congress when
they were here as King and Queen
in 1889.
The Duke, who was walking
with Architect of the Capitol Da-
vid Lynn. was much more inter-
ested in the other paintings that
line the roturda. One by one,
he pointed to each of the huge
canvasses and wanted to know the
scenes they depicted. They in
cluded the surrenders of the two
British generals-Burgoyne and
Cornwallis--during the American
Revolution, and the signing Of the
Declaration of Independence.

topcoat and matching hat she
wore for earlier appearances at

Gift Greatly Cherished.
This overmantel will be placed
in the White House and it will be
greatly cherished as a mark OF
the close ties that bind our two
countries together. This country
is built upon principles which we
have inherited from the British
people-our love of liberty. our
system of justice which is based
upon the English common law
our language-these and many
other things give us a strong feel
ing Of kinship.
Over the years, we have built
these ties into a remarkable in
ternational friendship. We have
had our differences in the past
but today it would be just as hard
to imagine q war between our
countries as it would to imagine
another war between the States
of this country. 1t just couldn't
happen.
I hope the day will soon come
when the same thing will be true
among all the. nations of the
world, when war will be impossible
in the world. That depends ir
great measure upon how well oui
two countries stick together and
work for world peace. I am sure
that we will do better job fol
world peace because your visit
here has frightened the bonds be-
tween us.

We want you to come back

When you do that, we hope

Elizabeth Mentions
Happy Visit Here
AT Gift Presentation

FOLLOWING is the tert OF the
remarks of Princess Elizabeth in
presenting to President Truman
today an ouermdntel to be
placed in the Blue Room of the
White House:
Mr.. President:
We have spent two very happy
days as your guests. Before we
leave. I am, therefore very glad
to present to you a gift from my
father. the King. I feel that this
ceremony makes a fitting climax
to what has been a delightful
and memorable occasion for both
of us.
National Symbol.
The renovation of the White
House has attracted interest all
over the world. Every one knows
how closely it has been bound up
with the history of your country
and how important it is to your
people as a symbol of national
pride.
If it had been impossible to pre-
serve this beautiful building, many
people in Britain would have
shared your disappointment. As
it is. we are glad to join with you
in celebrating its restoration; and
my father. who has many happy
memories of his own stay in the
house, has wished to mark the
event with a personal gift.
Finest Craftsmanship.
1t gave the King great pleasure
when he found the overmantel
which is before you now. The
work of 18th century artists, and
embodying the finest British
craftsmanship, it seems perfectly
suited for the place which it will
occupy.
1t gives me great pleasure, on
behalf of my father. to present
this overmantel to you. It is his
hope and mine that it will be a
welcome ornament to one Of your
proudest national possessions, and
that it will remain here, as a mark
of our friendship. so long as the
White House shall last.
