KING GEORGE DA
GREECE
Prospects of a Restoration..
WITHOUT A KINGDOM.
London, Sept. 20.
The recent accession of Prince Carol to the throne of Roumania and
the recurring schemes for placing young. Otto on the throne of Hung- ary have started some speculation as to what will be the fate of King George II of Greece, and whether he is destined to remain, a guest of his mother-in-law, .Queen Marie of Roumania, or may some day recover the kingdom which he lost in 1922.
Ever since he left Greece. Yor the last time, to escape the Re publican revolution, George II has been a wanderer through the capitals and Spas of Europe, com- ing to England for long visita, hunting in Scotland, and then re- his modest country turning to house near Bucharest,
Although he was formally de- posed in March 1924,, George has never abdicated, and has refused a. financial settlement with the Greek vernment, thus streng-- thening the belief that he has not given up hope entirely. This fact reenlis also the statement attribut- ed to Queen Marie of Roumania that she was ambitious to see all three of her daughters Queens on Balkan thrones.
But Princess Elizabeth's brief cut rather time as Queen was short, for about a year after she married George (Feb. 27, 1921) her king lost his throne. Of course, Marie is still Queen in Belgrade, but Ileans, well there do not appear to be many more thrones around, just now.
An Unlucky Family. King George's was not the first-
luck that had come to his family. His grandfather, William of Denmark who ruled as George I, was assassinated In Salonica on March 18, 1913. His brother, Alexander, who was direct in line, of succession, died from a bite by a, pet monkey. His father, Con- stantine twice fled the country. George II' going with him the first time in 1917, when Alexander was
the designated to take throne. After his father abdicated finally, and Alexander having died, George assumed the reign, which he was to hold only until the next year, and much of which he was to spend as a virtual prisoner in the castle.
Even abroad King George ap- parently is not able to escape the il luck which seems to cling to the family. On August 10, 1927,
a youth stepped up to the train window through which he was peering and took several shots with a pistol at the ex-ruler. King George ducked and the bullets went wide. That was in Kikindra; Roumania. Both he and his Queen like to come to London to shop for clothes. He enjoys seeing his tallors, likes to live modeatly in

On a recent trip, they arrived with only one equerry, a lady-In-waiting, a mald, and a valet.They had their meals unobtrusively in the regular dining room and many of the ser- vants of their hotel did not even recognize their guests.
Born in the royal villa of Tatol July 7, 1890, King George attend- ed a preparatory school. In Eng- land at the age of nine. He is a great-nephew of Queen Alexandra. He served in the Prussian govern- ment guards as training in 1909 and took part in both Balkan Wars 1912-18. He is interested in new developments in medicine, and public health.
