King Peter of Yugoslavia ascended the throne after his father, King Alexander, whose assassination almost precipitated a Balkan crisis. King Ananda of Siam succeeded his father, Pradjadjapok, after his ab dication. The former Siamese king was a perennial visitor to the United States. Michael of Roumania would have made the fourth boy king, had he not relinquished the crown when his father, King Carol, returned from exile. Farouk is the oldest of the youthful rulers. He is sixteen. Ananda, the youngest of the trio, is but ten, while Peter is twelve. Monarchy is on its way out the world over. But in those nations where the people still cling to the ancient form of gvoemment the royal show must go on. And these three youths have stepp'd into the leading roles.

WEEK DAYS PAY NO MORE TRANSRADIO PRESS With the shattered Ethiopian troops in full flight, the capital of the African nation captured and Selas sie on his way to Jerusalem, Musso lini apparently feels that the League of Nations has nothing to offer Italy. The success of the Italian campaign in the face of League sanctions, has boosted the Italian premier’s stock tremendously and, at the same time, has undoubtedly weakened the league. Few believe that Great Britain, leader in the anti-Italian sanctions drive, will call for any action against Mussolini’s complete domination of Ethiopia. France i| almost certain to battle for abandonment of the sanc tions oampaign. Smaller nations, who had hoped to cripple Italy’s war ma chine with exportembargoes, are be lieved to be ready to call the whole thing quits. Although Mussolini’s victory ad dress warned his people that the end of the Ethiopian war might be fol lowed by a renewed anti-Italian eco nomic campaign, not many diplomat ic experts expect the League sanc tions to remain in force more than a few days. Formal abandonment of the League sanctions may not come for weeks, it is pointed out, but a gradually increasing * flow T>r ' foods L from, sanctionist countries into Italy probably will begin within the next 1 few days.
