By the Associated Press, LONDON, January ‘5.—All Britain | today mourned one of the most demo- | | eratic_of its royal family, Loulse, Prin- | cess Royal, nicknamed “her royal shy- ness,” who died in her sleep yesterday of heart disesae. | King George, at Sandringham, was | notified of her death, the lord chamber- | {lain immediately ordering a period of | four weeks’ full mourning for the Brit- |ish court and two additional weeks of bhalf mourning. The princess Toyal, who was the eldest sister of the King, | |wes 63 years old, a year and eight; vounger than her imperial brother. Her death was not unexpected.

She often rode in busses | when traveling about London, other | passengers not knowing that the quiet, unassuming woman was the eldest sis- ter of their King. She was fond of the | theater and knew many of its folk. Her title, Princess Royal, conferred on | | her by King Edward, presumably will pass to Princess Mary, eldest sister of the Prince of Wales, wife of the Earl of Harewood.
