Foreign News: Hum in London
This week the London News Chronicle published a survey by the British Institute of Public Opinion recording that 61% of Britishers want the Duke and Duchess of Windsor to return and make their home in Britain. This revelation was no sooner on the streets than London began to hum with a report vastly more exciting: that the Duke will shortly return alone to visit the Queen Mother. "Usually unimpeachable sources" gave out that family anxiety over Queen Mary's heart was Windsor's inducement for thus breaking a reputed vow never to return without his wife.
