Meanwhile, the Italian royal
family gathered in Paris to
assist at the christening of
the youngest grandchildren
of ex-King Umberto, the
twins Helene and Serge, born
a month ago to Princess
Maria Pia, Oldest child of the

married to Prince Alexander

Curiosity
Whenever foreign royalty
come to this country, France
is delighted and proud, but
when their own pretenders
come into the picture they
demonstrate more curiosity
than one would suspect-for
what appears in the near fu-
ture at least a lost cause.
Once in a while, a rival
stands up to the official
French pretender, the Comte
de Paris. This time a new
monarchiSt magazine called
Tradition Franchise" claims
that the rights of the French
throne should go to Louis
AlphonSe, grandson of AL
phonse XIII, once King of
Spain, who died In 1941.
That, they say, is because he
is a Bourbon Prince, descend

XIV lived; the Chateau de
Cheverny, belonging to the
Marquis de Vilbraye, who
honored the royal guest with
his personal hunting team
sounding IA horns; Chenon-
ceaux, Villandry and many
others.
In the small town of
Chinon, once visited by Joan
of Arc, the Queen Mother
stopped in frCnt of a very
old house and asked men,
bers of her suite about its
history. Nobody knew any
thing. At that moment a
shopkeeper stepped out and
simply explained: you see,
Madam, this is the house
where Richard the Lionheart-
ed died, I for myself work in
the house where king Charles
VII bought his breeches, and
all this comes right from the
4th century"
True or not, the Queen
Mother was delighted. the
more so as the crowd ap-
plauded heartily and a young
woman took a flower bunch
out of a vase and offered it
to her. The royal visit ended
with a trip to Fontainebleau
and a luncheon given by the
Vicomte de Noailles, who
owns the charming Hotel de
la Pompadour, once the pri-
vate palace of Louis XV's fa-
vorite mistress.

Capet, founder of the French
dynasty
The young Prince, 81, lives
mainly in Madrid but main
tains a secretarial office in
Paris. Now the discussions
are open. Is it true that
Philippe V, King of Spain,
forebear of Louis Alphonse,
officially renounced his rights
to the throne of France, but
is it also true that Louis
Philippe, ancestor of the
Comte de Paris had usurped
the crown from King
Charles X in 1880? It's not
of great Importance but even
in our modern times it's nice
to, talk about queens and roy
atty and the fairyland OF
gilded crowns!
None of this prevents the
Parisians from running to
the yearly exhibit of the
French independent painters,
attracted by a very unusual
canvas representing the true
rulers of the world: While
Mrs. Kennedy is chatting
with his wife, Nikita Khru-
shchev roars with laughter
over a dove sitting on his
head. the President tries to
talk to him and little Caro-
line looks at other doves,
neglecting to admire the por-
trait of the Pope. It's not a
very good picture, but its
worth seeing!

PARIS. = Dem ocra tic
France loves royalty and is
always ready to give them a
proper reception. The whole
country has been following
with delight all the details
about the private visit of
Queen Mother Elizabeth who
came for a short stay In the
Loire region.
This incidentally, clearly
shows that the French peo-
pie don't feel concerned in
the least in the "piques" be-
tween the leaders of the two
countries and doesn't affect
in any way the traditional
feeling toward Great Britain.
For her headquarters the
Queen Mother had chosen
the Chateau Hotel d'Artigny
built IN 1920 by the French
perfume millionaire Francois
Coty in the perfect style of
the 18th century but equipped
with the first air-condition-
ing system in Europe.
In 1855 1t was transformed
into a very distinguished ho-
tel whose regular guests
hardly noticed that the first
floor was occupied last week
by a Queen and her suite.
Every day Queen Elizabeth
visited several castles of the
region, among them the IA
nous Chateau de Chambord,
where Francois I and Louis
