Random Thoughts on Thrones
And European Royal Houses

verse might upset them in
stead of bind them even more
to the people as happens in
England in times of crisis.
Italy's royal family is more
popular now than when exiled
by q small margin of post
war vote. The former King,
Umberto, and his wife. Marie
Jose, sister of King Leopold of
Belgium, are. not often to-
gether but have educated their
children to be all country
could want in the way of royal
heirs. They're handsome, SYM
pathetic. and intelligent. Con-
sequently, there's a good
chance of their being called
back.
What Will It Mean?
Until a few weeks ago, when
Prince Juan Carlos of Spain
accidently shot and killed his
younger brother Prince Al
fonso. all that stood between
him and the crown was some
IS years of F'ranco-grooming.
Ell Caudillo plans to restore the
monarchy when Juan1to will
be 80, sidestepping the boys
non Franco-inculcated father,
who is actual pretender. Like
the other countries of Europe,
Spain wants back no king who
might be up to old-style tricks.
No one yet knows the psyche
logical effect of the tragedy;
whether it will arouse or di-
minish sympathy for the young
Prince. The watered down
royal houses of Scandinavia
are as safe as Fort Knox
mainly because they lean over
backward not to put on airs.
BY the same token they lose
a lot of glamour.

their devotions. They'd felt
miserable for this young man
who wanted so much to put
things right. But they knew
that he stood quite alone and
lonesome in his pure thinking,
His odds were tremendous;
now he's won and they regard
