members told delightedly how
the 54-year-old queen asked to
inspect all parts of the ship.
She met the engineers, in
spected the engine room, pre
sented gold cuff links to three
of the stewards and gave auto
graphed photographs to several
of the ships officers.
' She was charming, that s the
only word you can say for it," a
ship 8 joiner told reporters,
"Every body had a good word
for her. She even spoke to me
and I never saw her before in
my life." .. :
Ate with Passengers
Although the liner which
bears her name provided the
queen mother with a special
three-room suite, including a pri
vate dining room, she ate with
other passengers two evenings,
She looked momentarily sur
prised as she walked into the
blinding lights set up by tele
vision and newsreel cameramen
in the ship's veranda grill, where
she greeted the welcoming com
mittee, then calmly stepped to
the microphones to read a brief
speech of appreciation. .
"Ever since our happy visit in
1939 I had always hoped that
one day I might be able to come
back and stay a little longer in
your great country," the queen
mother said.

Food Prices To
Stay About Same
In Coming Year
Washington U.Ri House
wives will be paying about the
same prices for food next year,
but they're likely to be faced
with higher costs at the beauty
parlor and dress shop,
Mrs. Gertrude S. Weiss, assist
ant chief of the Agriculture De
partment chief of the Agricul
ture Department's home econo
mics . research branch, made
these predictions yesterday be
fore the- 32nd annual Agricul
ture Outlook Conference here.
Supplies To Be Ample
Mrs. Weiss said that supplies
of major items are expected to
be "ample" next year. She said
"some .evidence of lower food
costs" is seen in recent price
cuts for coffee, pork, and lard.
' But she said marketing
charges are not expected to de
crease and "retail food prices
next year are expected to aver
age close to this year."
Furnishings About Same
Barring a slight increase in
textiles, she said estimates also
point to little change from this
year in the cost of household
furnishings. The same, she said,
applies to automobiles 'and home
Duuaing materials.
But the home economist said
current low inventories and in
creased fabric prices "suggest
that clothing prices will not turn
downward."
