cancel a garden party for ovtrMM

at 10 Downing atreet thla afternoon.
The first comers were unable, how-

peraUtcnt driving rain. After atlck

wrapped In sodden blankets, they
aadlv returned home with many an
angry glance at the sky.
The squatter brigade had mounted
camp too Is on the curbatonea and
settled down with a full complement
of rugs, flasks and bankets of pro
visions, ready to stick out the long
wait, although the forecast already
posted for coronation day read:
"OhMly, overcast skies."
Strike Makes Problem.
Transportation problems beset the
metropolis as a strike of 25,800 bus
workers, tying up 5,000 of London's
familiar red omnibuses, threatened
to spread to subways and street -cars.
Executive transport workers called
a special meeting to determine
whether to call out trolley men to
aid the striking bus drivers and con
ductors who are seeking a half-hour
reduction In their working day, to
seven and one-half hours.
While the undaunted early spec
tators shivered In the cold rain in
their long wait for the throaty roar
of the dawn cannon that will an
nounce the great day toward which
all Britain has been pointing for
months, the representatives of am
plre paraded to Buckingham palace
to present addresses of royal greeting
to the king.
