It wlU be the first time that a reigning monarch of the British Empire has ever visited America.' Perhaps If the idea of royal visits had occurred a couple of hundred years ago. we might still be subjects of the British crown. At any rate, there is a strong and definite tie between this country and the nation of which most of the United States once owed allegiance and we ought to be glad to show King George VI what a great country we have built by our own unaided efforts since we broke away from the control of his royal great great-gre- at grandfather. George HI. As we understand it, the position of the King of England and Scotland and Emporer of Britain is that of a symbol rather than a ruler. He is a figurehead, but a rather gorgeous figurehead. He symbolises the greatest democracy in the world, a nation which in many respects is much more democratic than, our own. The nearest thing we have in America to the King is the figurative cartoon of Uncle Sam, who stands for the American spirit as the King does for the spirit of Britain.
