Princess and Duke
Get Big Welcome
In Nation’s Capitol
WASHINGTON, (&)— Princess
Elizabeth yesterday placed a
wreath on the tomb of George
Washington, the man who played
a major part in taking this coun
try out of the British Empire.
Like any other visiting tourists,
the couple then inspected Mount
Vernon, the plantation home
where the father of this country
spent his last days.
Britain’s “fairy princess”, as
as President Truman called her,
and her handsome husband, Phil
ip, were accompanied by Miss
Margaret Truman. A sizeable
crowd was waiting on the side
walk across the street from the
Blair House when the royal cou
ple left the presidential residence
at 10:05 a.m.
Another wreath-laying was
scheduled at the tomb of the Un
known Soldier in Arlington Na
tional Cemetery, followed by a
diplomatic reception in the Can
adian embassy.
The day’s big event, with 2,000
on the invitation list and thous
ands more on the disappointed
list, was an afternoon reception
in the big, campus-like British
embassy. Champagne and French
pastries were to be served in a
circus tent on the lawn. Among
those invited: all members of
Congress.
Last night a reception was giv
en by some 900 news correspon
dents. It included the presenta
tion of an Indian war bonnet for
the royal couple’s three-year-old
son, Prince Charles, and an In
dian doll for their year old daugh
ter, Princess Anne.
Elizabeth smiled, said she liked
America fine and promised to
come again when she could stay
longer.
Next came the Blair House din
ner—strictly a white tie and gold
salad forks affair.
