BULGAR KING RESUMES DIPLOMATIC FUNCTIONS Correspondence of the Associated Press. SOFIA, February —One of the | indications of returning normality in | Bulgarian affairs is the resumption of the entertaining of cabinet ministers and foreign diplomats by King Borls. Last Winter the king resumed diplomatic dinners on a modest scale for the first time since the World | War, and the return to this practice on a larger scale than last year is | regarded here as a step in the right direction. A feature of these events is the atmosphero of informality that char- acterizes them. King Borls talks freely with his guests. KI-MOIDS D —— INDIGESTION Instant Relief!
