King Albert Gets Great
Reception in Portugal
; Students Fling Gowns Across
Komi for Queen of Belgians
to Walk Upon
LISBON, Nov. 22.?King Albert and
| Queen Elizabeth of the Belgians re
| ceived an enthusiastic, popular recep
i tion when they arrived here on their
! return from Brazil. This was the
! first visit by a crowned head to Por
: tugal since the birth of the republic,
| and the unusual event attracted thou
I sands of people who filled the squares
j and streets.
As the royal party passed through,
; flowers were showered upon the Queen
I by women in gayly decorated windows.
i and as they approached th? royal stand
erected In the Praeado Comercio a
group of university students flung
their gowns across the red carpet for
the Queen to walk upon.
King Albert was cordially greeted
by the President, Dr. Antonio Jos?
d'Almeida. The King looked wonderfully
well, but appeared grave and preoccu?
pied.
The day was crowded with official
receptions and a military review at
which the Portuguese government in
| vested the King with the Order of the
j Tower and Sword. The review was
? marred by the bad weather, and the
! Queen, who wore a thin d?collet? dress
! looked positively blue with the cold b
| fore it ended.
Information was given to the police
j that the royalist "Integralista" party
i intended to take advantage of the visit
of the I -??ffian royal family to male?
a manifestation m favor ox e i
tion of the monarchy in PortguaL
Some arrests were made. The govern?
ment had fully intended to grant the.
long-discussed amnesty to all political
prisoners in celebration of the visit of
the Belgian King, but this was so
strongly opposed b. some political
leaders that it was again postponed.
