EX QUEEN ENA FOUND 10 BE HAPPY IN EXILE ...-MENTON, Prance (UP) The du ties enforced on royalty make life so miserable that ex-Queen Una of Spain has no regrets that she has lost her throne, according to a close friend of the Spanish royal family who Is vacationing here. Basing her opinions upon many years of observation of royal affairs during the reign of Alfonso and Queen Ena, the Informant says the queen Is enjoying personal freedom for the flrat time In her life. "A reigning queen's life Is all duty," she said, "and my stenogra pher working from 9 to fl has a better Job and a more enviable existence. I haven't the authority to apeak for her majesty, but I think I am aafo In saying that she has no regret over losing her Job as queen. "The greatest part of a qucen'a time Is taken up with bowing to Iron clad court etiquette, submitting to compulsory ceremonies that are tire some and boring, "Over and over they must extend fingertips to be kissed by pompous court officials. Even In receiving their equals, queens or princesses from other courts, whether on state occasions or in private, they are de nied the prlvilages of Intimate talks, and must limit themselves to monot onovia 'ready-made' conversations. "The routine is much harder on old queens, and these are usually the most unhappy of all. Many queens have been bereaved through political assassinations and are mourning the loss of a husband, son or brother, although the monotonous court rou tine must be continued. The expres sion 'happy as a queen,' Is meaning less, and I'm positive that Queen Ena has no regrets but Is enjoying the personal freedom which was de nied to her before the revolution."

Standard Bearer DUE IN LIVERPOOL THIS AFTERNOON (Continued Prom Page One.) on the top deck of a Olaagow street car while she was going to work In a dress shop this morning. She disclosed the Invitation from her former employers as the Lind berghs, with their little second son, Jon, were nearlng Liverpool aboard a cargo steamer, seeking a calm and secure life In the English country side. Miss Oow, a star witness at the New Jersey trial of the baby's con demned slayer, Bruno Richard Haupt- mann, indicated she would continue to work In the dress shop. Ehe said she had heard from the Lindberghs and they had asked her to reenter their employ. "But I don't think I'll go," she said, "all I want to do now Is to be allowed to live a normal life. The Lindberghs - were the most kindly and considerate of employers one could ask, but I want to forget all about the past. I don't want money. I have received offers from film producers and theatrical representa tives. I have been asked to make per sonal appearances on the stage. But I have refused them all." IE YULE RESTORES HOLLY NUW YORK (UP) Old-fashioned Christmas red has staged a comeback this year aa the popular color for the season's greeting cards. After several years of fantastic color combinations and exotic de signs tn orchid, aquamarine and sim ilar sophisticated hues, 193S Christ mas cards are back to the holly and polnaett period. There are solid-color red cards with designs in silver and white. There are red mountings and border treatments. Some of the cards even are matched with bright red envoi op es. Oreen Is the second reigning favor ite, or seasonal combinations of red and green. Blue la mainly confined to carda of religious Inspiration, to which Its soft colorings are especially adapted. Combinations of gold and beige and brown are novel and smart, and there also are cards which spon sor a combination of coral and bright blue. Holly and poinsettas are used In a wide variety of designs as, for ex ample, a card of white parchment, silver st arred , over a red overl ay , with a giant holly .ypray In red and silver. Santa Clans, who has been absent from most of the cards lately, ap pears often this year. Smoothing his beard of real cotton or chatting with a hopeful gamin who offers to "Carry yer bag. Mister," he Is depleted al most any way except with his rein deer. Children of today are air minded and think he travels by plane. Cards of religious motif are widely favored. Many of them are color prints and etchings. James Chalmers, the Scottish mis sionary to New Qulnea, was killed ny cannibals at Ooarlbari Island in 1001.

IS 10 LONDON (UP) One of England's quaintest trains runs dally through the peaceful Weald of Kent and Just over the border Into Sussex. Comprising a small ant! ancient lo comotive carriage of two compart ments and sometimes a small goods truck, this train dates back to the primitive days of railway enterprise. There Is an engine at each end of the train, so that It is never turned. When it has to go In the opposite direction, the driver simply moves to the other end. and away it goes. Starting from Robertsbrldge Sta tion, Sussex, the train goes to Head corn, In Kent, a distance of 15 miles, in an hour and triree-quarters. The train seldom has a passenger these days, though when the com pany was formed in 1896 there was & large passenger trade. Frequently it slows down to allow a chicken to get off the line, now almost overgrown with weeds in places. The carriage seats are uncovered and the driver alts In the same com partment as the passengers when there are any. FRANCE IS BEHIND U. S. IN SMOKING, REPORT REVEALS PARIS (UP) Does this speed of American life account for the fact that the average American smokes nearly three times aa mBny cigarettes as the average Frenchman? That Is the figure which statistic ians of the land of Jenn Nlcot have produced for tobacco consumption In France, and as they have demonstra ted that the bigger the city, the morr cigarettes per capita are consumed. U might seem to follow that the sedat ive effect of the cigarette Is neces sary to calm the jafled nerves of the taxi -dodger. America amokes. per person, some 1 ,000 cigarettes yearly 50 packages. In France the figure is 379. There must be plenty of non-smokers to bring the average figure down to that total, because statisticians announce that the average for smokers Is 7.000 cigarettes a year about a pack a day. The department of the Selne( great er Paris) smokes the most 9.13 cig arettes per capita per year with the department of the Var (the hectic Riviera) second with 807. Last on the list Is the Haute-Lolre, completely agricultural, where the per capita consumption Is only 131 cigarettes a year. Franco's yearly cigarette consump tion totals 17.000.000.000 megots (butts) or slbiches (fags), enough to load 25 mile long freight trains and stoke the locomotives.

"We might Just a well have the record straight," The former governor refused to make any additional discussion of the invitation incident. Neither would he discuss the nature of his liberty league address. His general demeanor, however, gave emphasis to the frequently published reports that this address would con cern a rigorous assault on the new deal. Smith would not discus what par ticipation he would take in the 1936 campaign, either before or after the convention; but he did say that he would make "all conclusive state ments" relative to this later on.
