AURIOL GIVEN OVATION BY LONDONERS
London, March 7.
King George and the French President, M. Vincent Auriol, who is paying the first State visit to Britain since the war, toasted · each other in champagne across a gold-laden tabla in gaily decorated Buckingham Palace tonight.
It was the climax to a day packed with pageantry' in which flag-bedecked London gave one of the greatest ovations in its history to the chub- by-faced, French President and Madame Auriol. Amid a soa of Tricolours. Union Jacks and magnificent
draperies, the distinguished three-day visit with a tumul
French visitors began their
tous welcome as they drove in open landaus along the proces- sional route to the Palace.
They were met at Victoria Station by the King and Queen, Princess Elizabeth, Mr. Clement Attler, the Prime Minister, and members of his Cabinet.
Winter mist gave special uailty to the Station gathering but could not spoil the magnif cence of the heavy, red back- cloth with its blue and gold tassols and four big cream vanes of lilac, Willies, daffodils tulips.

Then, tonight, in Buckingham Palace's great banqueting hall the heads of the two nations pledged closer ties than over be- tween Britain and France.
Close bonds
The King, who ended his speech In Franch, declared "Three years ago the Treaty of Dunkirk set the seal on the fellowship of our two peoples consecrated by their sacrifices. Since that data we have come to recognise that we are linked by bonds closer than the tigations of any formal
ance.

"Your visit, M. Le President, is a symbol of the ties which unite us. I am confident that our two countries, supported by that peace-loving concept

Replying in French, M, Aurioi said, "We have not forgotten and we shall never forget that sum- mer of 1940 when we, loyal to our honour and to the pledges Poland, had bonn
