Prince George, goes to prove that the life of a royal salesman is not so easy as one might imagine. Prince George, who returned from a three-month tour of South Africa in the interests of British trade, recently, underwent such a strain on the trip that it was thought inadvisable for him to make the Australian tour. With his brother, the Prince of Wales, Prince George is credited with the success of the “Buy British” campaign, which is said to be pulling Britain out of the depression. The Australian trip, during which he will visit the Fiji Islands and New Zealand to boost British products, is the first venture of the Duke of Gloucester as a “salesman.”
