Prince Constantin von Liechten- stein, of this toy country’s ruling house, wants to marry—a Common- er! And Franz L, monarch of the na- tion's 10,213 sub]ect.s himself mar- ried to a commoner, won't let him The girl in question is the lovely English motion picture actress, Vir- ginia Field (“Lloyd’s of London") 18-year-old daughter of St. John Field, K. C. Fell in Love on Holiday Constantin and Miss Field fell in love when she visited Salzburg and Vienna last year on a holiday. They decided to marry. Immediately the Prince was re- called to Liechtenstein, the tiny principality whose 60 square miles are wedged in between Austria and Switzerland. !‘Nothing - doing,” he was told in no uncertain terms. Nevertheless, he continued a clan- destine correspondence with the act- ress when she went to Hollywood. Now she is back in Europe, working on another film—and .the loyal Liechtensteinians (all 10213 of them) are wondering just how it will turn out. The royal romance, it appears, has international complications. Pranz I, gray-bearded and 83, con- sidets, it is said, that his relatives, the Hapsburgs, are as good as back on the Austraian throne. And, because Liechtenstein leans heavily on Austria, he doesn't want anything te happen to offend that great family's dignity. Constantin’s Case Constantin is pleading his cause, however, on three grounds, all ro-| mantic. He points out: 1. Franz himself was a martyr to love, his. brother and predecessor, Johann II, having forbidden him to marry Frau-Elsa von Eroes, daughter of a Viennese arms maker. Further, when Johann, 89, died in 1629, and Franz became ruler of his/ poatage-stamp empire, one of his! fizgt royal acts was to marry the wo- man anyway. 3. The lady apparent, another Johann, 36, and a hephew of Franz, | married an American commoner in| 1981, Miss Alene McFarland, of Weatherford, Tex., daughter of a| cattle king. | 3.
