KING'S CORONATION
OFFICIAL SOUVENIR PROPOSAL United Press Association —By Electric Telegraph—Copyright LONDON, August 20. King Edward granted the King George Jubilee Trust permission to prepare a souvenir coronation programme, bearing the Royal Coat of Arms in colour. It will include a special message from his Majesty to the Empire, and the full text of the Coronation service. The introduction will be by the Archbishop of Canterbury. It will contain photographs of the King and other members of the Royal Family, verses by the Poet Laureate, an article “The King’s Majesty” by Mr John Drinkwater, and a short story of the King’s life by Mr Hector Bolitho. It is hoped that the programme will enable his Majesty’s subjects throughout the Empire to follow the service word for word.
