It was known before 1947 that' Princess Elizabeth and Llcii1en- ant Philip Mountbatten. RN. hail been seeing more of each otlicr than social formality would de- mand. And on July 9. 1957. King George VI gave his consent to the hetrothal of the younr: Prince and Princess.

The marriage iias an eicnt of great rejoicing. So. too. was the birth of Prince Charles a yeari later.

He is. of cniirse. in no sense a king and has no special au- thority. But as hcnd of his fam- ily and confidential .ll'iVlJ0r to the Queen there is iilenty of scope for the qualities and tal-

But unlike ”Alhert the flood.” Prince Philip did not have to endure at period of "probation" to enjoy the people's trust and confidence. for they know he loves Britain and the Empire. They know, too. that the know-p
