PRINCESS’S TOUR OF GERMANY
Labour Criticism Of Arrangements LONDON, July 16. A Labour member will ask the Prime Minister (Sir Winston Churchill) next Thursday which Government department was responsible for Princess Margaret’s tour of Germany. The member, Colonel M. Lipton, tabled the question in the House of Commons today. Some aspects of Princess Margaret’s tour have been criticised in British newspapers as involving a member of the Royal Family in a political controversy. The “Tribune,” the weekly journal of the Left Wing Bevan group, described the visit as “something indistinguishable from a political demonstration” at the moment when the French people were deeply angered by Dr. Adenauer’s latest outbursts on German sovereignty.
