ROYAL COUPLE
HONEYMOON AT HOME GOING ABROAD NEXT YEAR PRINCE’S NEW TITLE (British Official Wireless). Rugby, October 10. It is understood that the Duke of Kent (Prince George) and Princess Marina will spend the first part of then- honeymoon in England and will join the King and Queen for Christmas at Sandringham. They will probably go abroad for some time early in the New Year.
Prince George made his first public appearance as the Duke of Kent when he opened the new home of the London Chamber of Commerce which has been built entirely of Empire materials. Congratulations on his betrothal were extended to the Duke in the address of welcome, and in his reply, after suitably acknowledging the expression of good wishes, the Duke referred to the fact that the London Chamber, which sprang from a very modest beginning, had risen with remarkable rapidity into its present pre-eminent position. Its council, in which 47 affiliated associations are represented, speaks for 50,000 firms and companies and is the largest Chamber of Commerce in any capital city of the world. The Duke expressed the hope that the completion of the new headquarters would mark a further advance along the path of useful public service.
