TO SHOW IMPROVEMENT Progress Satisfactory, Though Slow, Says Bulletin—Condition Is Held in Nowise Serious. By the Assoclated Press. LONDON, February 19.—A bulletin issued from Buckingham Palace this morning said: “His majesty passed a better night. His progress, though slow, is satisfactory.” It is understood that no further an- nounéement regarding King George's condition will be made today. Confidence that his illness from bronchlitis is progressing normally and that there is no ground for an- xiety is shown by the manner in which the news of the case is han- dled @by the morning newspapers While printing all the informatior obtainable, they make no special dis- play of it, and In Some cases rele- gate It to comparatively inconspicu- ous places. Everything which can be learned supports the official statement that the present medical supervision 1s largely precautionary and that the King's condition is in nowise serious. Relieved From Duty.
