IDNDON - Contrary to first it now appears the the Pre- miers of the various provinces of Canada will not be invited to the

jRoyal wedding of Princess misa-

beth and Lleut. Philip Mountbat- ten in November. Gift From B. C-T

It is learned in official quarters here that the Government oif ‘British Columbia. has enquired through the proper channels if s wedding present from the people of Canada's mast western prov- ince would be acceptable to Her Royal Highness. If so, the pres- ent will be syinbolical of British Columbia, with its great indus- tries of lumbering, fishing, min- ing and agriculture.

Only a. handful of Canadians, those at the very top of tlie of- ficial precedence list, will be in- vited to tho wedding. The Prime Minister has already been asked to attend. His invitation went by cable, and he accepted. The Gov- ernor-General of Canada is ex- pected to be present. The Gover- ,nor-General is first on the pre- l cedence list, then the Prime Min- ‘ ister. followed by members of the Ottawa cabinet. It is felt only

the Imperial Privy Councillors-

Mr. St. Laurent, Mr. Ilsiey, Mr. Howe, and Mr. Mackenzie will be invited.

i w Simplicity E ,ected

There the invitations will have lto stop. Lieut-Governors of the iprovinces rank after the Federal lcabinet ministers. Until a few iyears ago they follo\ved in pre- ycedence the Governor-General. ‘Before the Provincial Premiers

i of the Anglican and I churches, the ranking heads oi the l other churches, the ex-Prime Min-

Privy Council. Sp¢ﬂkBIS of the Senate and the House of Com- mons. Provincial Premiers are 20th down the list.

The wedding will be compara- tively simple for a Royal affair and it would be llIlDOSSlblC to in- vite guests from Canada without having them to the wedding breakfast in Buckingham Palace. However, there will be room for only 150 persons at the break- fast

If Canadian Lieut-Governors and Premiers were invited, it would also be necessary to in- vite the Lieut-Governors and iPremlers from all the other Brit- lish Commonwealth countries and, it is explained in court cir- cles here. there is Just not room for everyone.

The report‘: minimum estimates were based on the occurrence of venereal disease in two of the countries least affected by the problem -— Denmark and’ Finland -in relation to the world's popu- lation of 2,000,030,000.

Recording evidence of an “up- ward trend" in venereal diseases everywhere, mainly as a result of war conditions, the report recom- mended that a. special committee oi’ the World Health Organization should consider strong internation- al action venereal disease for ap- proval by the first world health assembly, which is expected to convene in 1948.

The report urged revision of the bd-power Brussels agreement or 1M1 for the treatment of venereal disease in merchant seamen and called for special national and in- ternatlonal programs.

Ancient Tally Sticks Preserved in British llouse 0f commons

But here. available for all who care to look, and the an-, cient tally sticks. preserved when others were burned in 1884. de- stroying the House of Commons vrith their flames.

These sticks, the size of a tooth brush and with notches cut in their sides, have been smoothed by the touch of countless anxious hands.

cording payments between the Crown and the people. The size of

ma“ o, Canada‘ members o; meythc notches showed exactly how

many pounds, shillings and pence were involved in the transaction.

In the late 18th century, when education was fashionable, the tally sticks tell into dislavor andl --the story goes - people advan- ced to the stage where they could‘ count on their fingers. Ari act to abolish them was passed in 1782i but they were used extensively im- i ill 1826 and even new they are found in old iiorriestcads.

In 1834 Parliament decreed most‘ of the collection of tally sticks, should be burned. They were veryl old and dry and they setup a blaze ll‘ the Commons furnace that ov- erheated the pipes and set the old liuildin: on fire. The tally sticks went dos/ii. but the mother of‘ parliaments‘ home went with them. I

LONDON. 809i- 39-PF1IWW lliaabetb i061! turned u? her nose it tons skirts.

Q10 made her ﬁrst rmbllc sp- pearanoe here since the long-ﬂirt fashion took hold, and she chose s suit with a skirt Just covering the knees.

"Cool and it's nae she did." el- elaimed a trpist who shares s popular view of the Just-above- the-ankles trend.

The Princess. ending a seven- wsek stay at Balmoral Castle in Scotland. came home to get on with peparations for her wedding to Liaut. Philip Mountbatten Nov. 20. Mmmobatten arrived in Buck- ingham Palace later from the Royal Naval Station at Corsham, where he is an instructor.

Before her reunion with Philip, who had visited her at Bslmoral, the Princess went to the head- quarters of the British Oolor Council to accept wedding gifts from British manufacturers. It was understood that one object of her trip was to have a. first at- ting of her wedding gown.

Princess Elisabeth saw materials made up in four new colors chos- en by her to commemorate her wedding when she visited the Color Council headquarters.

The new colors range from linden (a deep green), princess blue (a. pastel shade), and spit- head blue (light navy blue). Spit- head lies 01'! the naval base at Portsmouth and is the base from which the King annually reviews the fleet.

While details of the gown n- mained secret. an announcement at Buckingham Palace disclosed it will have a train. Silk for the train will be provided by the silk farm at Lullingstone Castle at Eynsford, in Kent.

In avoiding long skirts she was siding with the home team in the British stylists’ "war" on the

l Paris and New York trend.
