PRINCE HIROHITO.
A CIVIC WELCOME. By Telegraph.—Press Assn —Copj-right. London, May 11. Prince Hirohito was presented with an address of welcome at the Guildhall. Great crowds witnessed the procession from Buckingham Palace to the city. The route was decorated with British and Japanese flags. The Prince of Wales accompanied Prince Hirohito. The procession was escorted by Household Cavalry, and aeroplanes circled overhead. The address gratefully acknowledged Japan’s assistance on sea and land during the war.
