Irish Girl May Wed

Prince of Wales

Uond®B—With the denial of the report* printed In the the United States to the effect that the Prince of Walea Intended mrrryinK the I'rlncess of Denmark spirited cosslp comes from London which has that the heir to the British throne Is desperately in love with, his sister's maid of honor. Lady Joan Mnlholland—an Irish pill—and insists that he will marry her. The rounpr woman is a commoner and there is a Parliamentary act on the way. but the Prince has retained his smile lately and there Is reason to believe that It will broaden, rather than fade, over the preat question as to who is to be

tbe next Queen of England.

Th* rumor about his marrying Princees Ifargaret has been shattered for many reason* in the first place. It is pointed out that they are cousins and consanguinity forfclds the marriage-be-tween thtpi. But what Is considered even more important Is the fact that they are both In love, although not

‘ with ach other. The prince

ported to have her own affair of the heart in Norway, which may account for her parents leaving her behind in

England.

To my mind, employ era never had a better opportunity to get together with labor for the purpose of working out a mutually • satisfactory solution of their problems. The best minds among labor are alive to the Importance of abolishing all tactics which, thoogu

So thing* moved along until the Prince left here for Australia.

Within a week after his return, he called on Premier Lloyd George and told him how matters stood. What the Premier thought about It nil has no» been diiwlbsed. but It was noticed that during the last week in October all the leading newspapers here suggested the repeal of the Royal Marriage act. and U was openly stated that the Prince might want tc marry a commoner.
