-4-
 
      Saturday,_ June l0th.
 
      1:30 P.M. arrive World's Fair
 
      1:30 to 3:00 P.M. visit Fair, British Pavilion, etc.
 
      3:00 P.M. drive across Bridge to Riverside Drive, Medical Center, 
      thence Parkway to Hyde Park, getting you to our house about 6:30 
      P.M. The rest of this schedule would be as in PLAN A.
 
      
 
 
The only trouble about PLAN B is that it makes a very long 
      and tiring day on Saturday, June tenth -- but it does avoid a 
      night on the train.
 
      
 
 
I have tried in arranging for these three and a half days 
      to give you and Her Majesty some opportunity for relaxation because 
      I know that your trip to Vancouver will, of necessity, be tiring. 
      I think, however, that the general plan will give you both an 
      opportunity to see and do all the necessary things, and I do 
      not need to assure you again that a very great pleasure it is 
      going to be to have you as our guests.
 
      
 
 
A little later we can take up the subject of official dress 
      -- but may I suggest that if it is very hot, as it maybe, you 
      will both want as thin things as possible. As a matter of fact, 
      if it is hot, white uniforms will be the most comfortable for 
      the more formal occasions and they would be entirely correct.
 
      
 
 
I hope to leave about February sixteenth for two weeks of 
      our Naval manoeuvers off the Windward Islands -- " a fleet 
      problem" to be held in those waters for the first time. 
      I imagine that some international significance may be attached 
      to them. I wish you could be with me on the cruise, for I know 
      you love that sort of thing.
 
      
 
 
With my sincere regards,
 
      Faithfully yours,
 
      His Majesty
 
      King George VI,
 
      Buckingham Palace,
 
      London,
 
      England.
