LUKE AND DUCHESS
WELCOME BY PARLIAMENTARY ASSOCIATION. London, July 8. A brilliant assemblage of Lords, Commoners, Bishops and civil and military dignitaries welcomed the Duke and Duchess of York at the Westminster Hall under the auspices of the Parliamentary Association. When the Duke and Duchess, the latter wearing a delightful pink dress, pink hat and cloak, appeared at the head of the staircase they were greeted with a spontaneous outburst of cheering and handclapping. Mr Amery presented many notables and Dominion visitors. The Duke and Duchess afterwards descended into the hall and mingled with the guests and chatted at length with Mr Amery and Mr Ramsay MacDonald. The Duchess enthusiastically greeted old friends. —A. and N.Z.
