Abstract
Description
Influx of royal visits during extraordinary tourist season; 31 million schillings in foreign exchange received during August alone; royal visitors include King of Belgium, King of Spain, Prince Paul of Yugoslavia, Duke of Kent, Italian Crown Prince and his wife, and King of England; King of England's visit was an informal holiday, although he did call on President and Chancellor; he came with small entourage, including Mrs. Simpson, wandered about streets with Mrs. Simpson, visted museums, dined in public restaurants, attended opera, played golf and hunted with British Minister; wherever he went his privacy was respected; no political objective in visit, but may have good consequences.
