King Feisal's Death: The Late Lord Grey

Of Felloden

Oxford's Next Chancellor:

A Tale Of Princess Elizabeth

(Special Al-Mall Service)

London, Sept. 12,

KING FEISAL

King Feisal's death will be de- plored by Englishmen who had the good fortune to meet him while,

serving in Irak.

For he Was always solicitous about their welfare, always ready with advice in cases of malaria and sand-y fever, and always pre, pared to consider grievances. «

My impression, whenever I met him. was that he looked "every inch 2 King." But I well-remem- ber a powerful Basra sheikh ex- claiming. "He is much too English for us." The Southern Arab, bow- ever, is a conservative person.

Lord Cave, Lord Grey's prede- cessor, was auccessful against Lord Oxford and Asquith, the electors resenting Lord Oxford's candida- ture for the dual reasons that he had assumed the title of Lord Ox-" ford, and that he was only a B.A., never having paid the necessary fees; to become an 18.A.

THE HEIR-PRESUMPTIVE, I do not know who now becomes heir-presumptive to the Iraki throne Presumably King Ghaz's uncle, the Emir Zeld, Feisal's youngest brother and the only one of the four who has never sat on a throne.

Emir, Zeld is a very intelligent and particularly charming young man. Owing to being Turkish on his mother's side, he'is more Euro- pean than his elder brothers, and talks English perfectly.

JA'FAR PASHA'S GRIEF.

Jafar Pasha was terribly dis- tressed, "An act of God" was how he described King Felsal's death, with a gesture of his hands that was charged with feeling.

The Iraki Minister recalled how he had worked with Feisal for nearly twenty years, and in that time had seen the Arab world transformed." .
