Another Royal Marriage

Boris III, King of Bulgaria, and Princess Giovanna of Italy may, bring a union of European royalty again this year. Boris had an audience with His Holiness Pope Pius XI, thus reviving rumours that he is seeking the hand in marriage of Eriricess Glovanna. The diffealty in the way of the match is a difference in religion between the two. Boris, by the constitution of Bulgaria, must belong to the Orthodox Greek Church, while the Princess is of the Roman Catholic Church. Thus far it has been impossible for, Boris toobtain the necessary dispensation from the Pontiff for the nuptials. A solution which has been considered. is that the Princess retain her religion and Bring up ber children as Catholles, except her first-born, who would be reared in the Orthodox Greek religion in order

to succeed Boris on the Bulgarian throne.
