THEIR MAJESTIES
VISIT TO SHIPYARDS CHEERED BY WORKERS UNDISTURBED BY RAIDS (Omcial Wireless) (Received August 30, 11.25 a.m.) RUGBY, August 29 Their Majesties made a two-hours’ tour of one of Britain’s biggest shipyards in North-west England, where they saw warships on the stocks and others in the basin almost ready to put to sea. Thousands of shipyards workers cheered them on their tour of the yards, which Their Majesties made on foot. Their Majesties spent last night on a railway train at a quiet siding somewhere in Lancashire, and although there were many attacks over the country Their Majesties were not disturbed.
