Lune de Miel
At the remote Castle Ciergnon in the Belgian Ardennes Crown Prince Leopold of the Belgians honeymooned last week with Princess Astrid, niece of the three kings of Sweden, Denmark and Norway. The royal civil marriage at Stockholm (TIME, Nov. 15) had been supplemented last week at Brussels by a Roman Catholic marriage performed by Archbishop van Roey of Malines, successor to Cardinal Mercier as Primate of Belgium.
GREECE
Republican Victory
The Greek Parliamentary election, long promised by Dictator Kondylis, was held last week. Of the 287 seats the Republican Parties won the commanding total 165. Dictator Premier Kondylis intimated that he might resign and give way to a Republican Premier. He delayed doing so.
