Duchess Will Lead Coronation Fashions
Paris, May 1.
The Duchess of Kent un- doubtedly will be the most fashionable and best-dressed member of the British royal family at the coronation activities.
The former Greek princess, who has an infallible style sense, always wore Paris clothes until her marriage into the British royalty, when she was forced to follow the national slogan: "Buy" British."
When she married two and a half years ago, her amart French trousseau created a sensation in England, and her unusual costumes and chle figure have been frant page news over since. On her recent return from Germany and Italy, the Duke and Duchess of Kent spent a week in Paris, and pretty Marina ordered 10 new spring

20 YEARS
YEARS FOR
PRISON QUEEN
By A Staff Reporter
Paris, Apr. 25.
LOVE for beautiful, French-born, twenty-five-year-old Jeanne Constance Georgel, spy in General Franco's service, has cost the governor of an anarchist gaol in Barcelona his life.
Jeanne, spy under the name of Countess Danichewski, has just been given twenty years' gaol by the People's Tribunal at Barcelona instead of the death sentence she
expected.
Another Frenchwoman-prisoner, repatriated-from- Spain, reached Perpignan to-day, and, sitting over an apertif in a little cafe, described to me how Jeanne had been unofficial queen of the gaol.
Jeanne, I was told, is beautiful. Her beauty made her film "auper," ballet dancer and, finally, spy. She could wind almost any man round her finger.
Jeanne's friend went on: "She spoke many languages. Her English, German, Russian, Spanish and Italian were all fluent. But it was as a woman she excelled.
"Ifer arrival in our prison was triumphant. She came in a taxi- cab, with sultesse, Bowers and a lap-dor.
"Flowers and sultcares went to her cell-the lap-dog was handed to the governor. He doesn't like celis,' explained Jeanne.
