Description
Larders of the Liner Queen Mary were being restocked Nov 16 for the Princess Rajkumari Leilavathi, niece of the fabulously wealthy Maharajah of Myrose, india, with her royal consort, K Basavaraus, as they arrived in New York City Nov 16, aboard the liner Stat Rosa. The pantries will carry special rices, curries, vegetables and fruits, since the Princess Hindu religion forbids her to eat anything of animal origin. The princes and her retinue left India 8 months ago on a world cruise. Her uncle's annual income is figured at more than $11,000,000.
