ROYAL VISIT TO U.S.

THE DECISION OF THE

L

STATE DEPARTMENT NOT TO PERMIT THE KING DURING-

HIS AMERICAN VISIT TO” AP-

PROACH CLOSER TO NEW YORK CITY THAN THE WORLD'S FAIR IN FLUSHING MEADOWS, OUT-

SIDE THE CITY LIMITS, IS AROUSING WIDE DISCUSSION

AND CONSIDERABLE CRITICISM,

British residents in New York as well as prominent Americans sincerely hope that if the proposal that the King should avoid New York City is adhered to it will at least be made abundantly clear to the American people that the de- cision is one taken by the Ameri- can Government. The King, as the official guest of that Government, has no course but to accept without demur the plans made for his re- ception.

Government officials in Washing- ton naturally have memories of the very exuberant welcomes given by New York to national heroes in the past. They are alleged to fear that if their Majesties passed through part of New York City some un- toward incident might occur during the excitement,

British residents however, con: scious of the respect and affection with which the British Crown is re- garded by Americans, feel that such fears are entirely unjustified.

Several routes could be selected, each of which would permit the
