" DELAYED BY WRECK, WALES MAKES SHP Derailment on Way to San- tander Followed by Slight Motor Accident. By the Associated Press. SANTANDER, Spain, January 19.— After an exciting trip from Paris, the Prince of Wales and his youngest brother, Prince George, were en route y aboard the liner Oropesa on an 18,000-mile journey which will culmi- .pate with their inauguration of the British Trade Exhibition in Buenos Alres in March. ‘The two princes were many hours late in reaching Santander, where they found the Oropesa, hauled up to a dock ready to begin the transatlantic trip. After stopping at Coruna today, the Vessel will proceed to Hamilton, Ber- muda, and Kingston, Jamaica. The] royal passengers will touch Central America and go on down the west Bouth American coast. Awakened by Derailment. ‘The princes’ trouble began late Sat- wrday night when their train was held up 30 miles below Bordeaux by the de- railment of a northbound train from the Spanish frontier. Awakened by the halt, both watched the work of clear- ing the track. French railroad officials at Bayonne sent a special train north to pick them up and carry them to Hendaye. There, already four hours late, they transferred to motor cars, beginning a dangerous ride over sloppy mountain roads to Santander, watering place of the Spanish Kings. At Bilbao the au- tomobile occupied by the Prince of Wales careened into that in which Prince George was riding, but no one was hurt. Awaited by Large Crowd. It was 9:30 p.m. before the line of motor cars drew up before the quay in Santander, where a large crowd awaited them. The princes jumped from the ve- hicles and, Pleading fatigue to newspa- per men who asked interviews, hurried aboard the Oropesa, which left shortly afterward. There was a brief omc?l welcome by Spanish provincial offic » the Prince of Wales replying to each in anish. { sp’rhe two princes flew Priday to Paris. | spending the remainder of the day and | Saturday there. They will not return to England until late in March. { MEETING TO SUM UP 1930 Y. W. C. A. WORK Mrs. Alice M. Dickson and lin: Myra Smith to Speak at Annual Session. | | Mrs. Alice M.
