Duke of Windsor’s Return Desired
OXTORD UNDERGRADUATES LONDON, Jan. 26. Oxford wants the Windsors home. That is the burden of a leading article in the current issue of the Isis, the Oxford undergraduates’ journal. “As King George and Queen Elizabeth have the whole of the country behind them to a man, there is no reason why we should not speak openly upon the subject of the Duke and Duchess of Windsor and their return to England," states the writer. “When the Duke left England he did not cast away our love and loyalty with his crown. To tho Duke of Windsor and the Duchess we affirm our loyalty and affection. “We believe that if their present condition is of interest to anyone, it is more so to use than to American secret societies, reeking of sensationalism and sentiment. We want no English Pretender. But if it is indeed their wish to return to England we will give them such a welcome as they have never seen before."
