Former officials of the Commonwealth Royal tour said in Canberra today that if Their Majesties the King anil Queen visited Australia in 1552. their innerary would be drastically reduced from the one proposed for their 1949 tour. It is expected that ThenMajesties would visit the capital cities only, and make day trips from the capitals. “The news that the King and Queen hope to visit this country in 1952 will delight Australians of all kinds, whatever their party or politics,” says, the Sydney “Sun,”’ in a leading article.
“The announcement is welcome, not only because Australians have a natural desire to see their King and Queen, but because the decision shows that Hie King has sufficiently recovered irom his illness to feel capable of such a journey.’
