PRINCE OF WALES
»-! PREPARATIONS FOR TOUR. » London, December 30. H.M.S. Renown's engines ami machinery aro undergoing overhaul at Portsmouth. The Princo of Wales' will uso the samo apartments as on his trip to Canada. The accommodation differs little from that of his fellow-officers. No structural alterations lmvo been made. It is not likely that the Renown will be accompanied by an escort, but probably the pre-war precedent will bo followed ami tho Channel Fleet will escort tho lienown as far as Gibraltar, whero the Mediterranean Fleet will tako up the duties. It is likely that Captain Ernest A. Taylor, who was commander of tho lienown on the trip to Canada, will command on tho Australian trip. The ''Evening Standard' announces unofficially that it is unlikely that the Prince will go direct .from Australasia to India. Ho is expected to return first and spend at least three months in England. The suggestion that he will visit New Zealand first is based on the possibility that tho lienown will uso tho Panama route, but that question is still undecidod — Aus.-N.Z. Cab'lo Assn. .
