LONDON, March 28 (#).—The throne yesterday approved the appoint- ment of the Duke of York, second son of King George, as lord high commis- sioner of the Church of Scotland in suecession to Earl Stair. This is the first time this ancient of- fice, dating from 1560, has been held by a member of the royal family. In 1924, when Ramsay Macdonald was head of the Labor government, the post was given to a working miner, James Brown, who was Laborite member of Parliament for South Ayrshire. Brown thus represented the sovereign and took up residence in Holy Rood Palace. He gave a dinner party there at which the guests were mostly members of the Scottish nobility.
