WHY THE KING'S
OATH HAD TO
BE ALTERED
FAR-REACHING changes in the status of the Dominions since was crowned King George V in 1911 have caused alterations In the oath to be taken by King George VI at his Coronation on May 12.
These have been decided upon in consultation with Dominion Governments. In the light of the Statuto-of-Westminster,which declared Great Britain and the
" equal 'under
the Dominions Crown."
Two outstanding changes nounced last night are:-

FINANCIAL PROVISION FOR THE DUKE OF WINDSOR IS, I UNDERSTAND, LIKELY TO BE
SETTLED SHORTLY ON THE BASIS OF A CAPITAL PAYMENT OF £125,000 AND AN ANNUITY OF £20,000.
These plans follow the recent conversations at Castle Enzesfeld between the Duke, the Princess Royal, the Earl of Harewood, and Sir Walter Monckton, K.C., Attorney- General to the Duchy of Cornwall.
If the proposals as reported meet with the approval of the King, it is probable that he will make himself res- ponsible for the annuity, and that other members of the Royal Family will be privately responsible for the capital payment.
The sums mentioned are derived from an assessment of what may be regarded as the "moral rights" of the ex- King to the enjoyment of certain hereditary and private royal properties.

and Balmoral
