Royal Family Is
Implied Cause of
Princess Mystery
LONDON —The strongly con
servative Daily Telegraph warned
Thursday the British royal fam
ily is suffering a “loss of dignity”
by its failure to clarify the Prin
cess Margaret - Peter Townsend
mystery.
The surprising editorial in the
Telegraph, which supports Prime
Minister Eden and is conceded to
have excellent sources of informa
tion from high places, could be
taken to imply the royal family
alone is responsible for withhold
ing a public statement which
would end the speculation over
the royal romance.
“This long drawn out business
day after day must be highly irk
some to the two persons most
closely affected,” said the Tele
graph. “Does it not also involve a
certain loss of dignity in a wider
field? Is it not unfair to the royal
family as a whole?”
Princess Margaret, Queen Eliza
beth II, the Duke of Edinburgh,
and the Queen Mother were the
dinner guests Wednesday night of
the Archbishop of Canterbury and
50 other high ranking Church of
England clergymen at Lambeth
Palace, the archbishop’s London
residence.
As the ranking prelate of the
church, which officially outlaws
the remarriage of divorced per
sons whose former mates are liv
ing, the archbishop has become a
central figure in the talk of a pos
sible Margaret - Townsend mar
riage.
The 40-year-old Townsend, an
RAF group captain and hero of
the Battle of Britain, divorced his
wife after fathering two sons.

U.N. Postpones Election
To Decide Between
Philippines, Yugoslavia
UNITED NATIONS, N.Y., UPV—
The U.N. General Assembly yes
terday postponed election of a
Security Council member until
next Thursday, with the Philip
pines and Yugoslavia each still
in the race with formidable back
ing.
The United States maintained
its support of the Philippines for
a two-year term on the council
beginning with 1956. Britain and
the Soviet bloc still favored Com
munist-ruled Yugoslavia.
A British spokesman told re
porters his delegation did not con
sider that Yugoslavia’s election to
the Economic and Social Council
Wednesday night barred her from
election also to the Security Coun
cil. The U-S. view was just the
opposite.
Jose Maza of Chile, Assembly
president, adjourned the meeting
till a week from yesterday by gen
eral consent. He said he had been
told there was a “private agree
ment in the chamber” that this
should be done.
The Assembly, in its morning
meeting, elected Brazil and Greece
to the Economic and Social Coun
cil and Guatemala and Syria to
the Trusteeship Council for three
year terms starting next year. The
seats in question now are held by
Venezuela, Turkey, El Salvador,
and Syria, respectively.
