Physiclans have given up hope for the recovery of the dying queen who during recent ars has be- come quietly reconciled to the ob- scurity of her retreat, Since her playboy son, Carol, returned from Pais in 1930 to take the thone, where she sat so long with equani- y and grace, Marie has walked ound of shadows in the ater Rumania” she helped to build During the intense suffering of iline she took only passive in- t in politics and art. Reports 1g Carol had name semi- regime to rule her country failed to stir the fire of her more youthtul day The queen at 62 had become resigned. No Choice But to Wed Wars and dissentions have come and gone the world hailed b | All her life she has lived in the ex- alted *atmosphere of royalty, with the blood of two of Europe’s most noted royal families in her veins. A queen herself, she lived to see two of her daughters bécome queens, too. The wife of a king, she became the mother and grandmother of Kings. When she left her home in Eng- land, at 17, to marry Prince Ferdi- nand, almost twice her age, it was no choice of hers. She obeyed, even as sheobeyed years later, when in- exorable rules of royalty pushed her aside. Her father was Queen Victoria’s second son, Alfred, and her mother the Grand Duchess Marie Alexandrovna, only daughter of Russia's Emperor. The marriage was no choice of Ferdinand’s either, as he loved Hel- ena Vasaresco, a commoner, but [doughty old King Carcl would not Ihear of his son’s marriage to her. {Thus were Ferdinand and Marie |brought together, by royal wish, Marie lived to see young Carol, her ison and Ferdinand’s, follow the wayward romantic paths his kingly as “the most remarkable woman of | father had preferred. and she lived s of dramatic pic- modern times,” tures since ¢ wic—the granddaughter of Rus- ia’s Czars on one side and of Eng- | Finally she saw her grandchild, 1MXchael. deposed when her son de- ming to Rumania 10/ cided to return to the throne, bring- {ing to Rumania his Parisian sweet- Magda Lupescu.

Wrecked at Dack By Gustof Wi Taku Rips Lockheed from Cables, Damaging Wings and Tail The Taku wind yesterday evening partially wrecked an airplane and indireetly caused Gordon Graham, Aldska Air Transport mechanic, an fcy bath in the waters of the har- bor. The Alaska Air Transport Lock- heed was whipped over on a wing yesterday evening on the Alaska Air Transport float by a heavy gust of wind, doing about $500 damage |to the ship. When the plane had been run up on the float preparatory to lifting it to the dock, the sudden gust of wind lifting the left wing, swung it high and crashed the right wing's leading edge into a pile. Cables had been hooked to the ring bolts on top of the ship. With the ship tilted and the cable taut, the bolts pulled loose and let the plane swing free. In his frantic efforts to save the airplane from further damage, Gor- don Graham topped the accident off with a fall into the water. The entire Alaska Air Transport crew was working on the Bellanca today, hoping to have the plane back in service again after over- haul, near the end of the week.
