ROYAL TOUR ONLY POSTPONED: MR. FRASER ASSURED
LONDON, Dec. 13
The visit of the King and Queen to New Zealand and Australia has only been postponed and not cancelled. Their Majesties are anxious to make the trip “as soon as the King recovers and arrangements can be made. This was emphasised by Their Majesties to the Prime Minister of New Zealand, Mr. Fraser, who spent an hour with them at Buckingham Palace this afternoon. He was the first Dominion statesman received by the King since the announcement of his illness. “The King was looking much better than when I last saw him six or seven weeks ago.” said Mr. Fraser. “He will, however, be under the doctors' care for a considerable time.”
