NOT EVEN ROYALTY
CAN GET GOTHAM FLAT
NEW YORK —<>P)— Even If
you're an Egyptian prince or
princess you can't get an apart-
ment in overcrowded New York
City. That, at least, i8 what
Prince Mahamed-Aly Ibrahim
and Princess Hanzade of Egypt
have found out.
The royal couple, in Switzer-
land throughout the war, came to
this country to have a good time
and they've been living in a tiny
hotel room ever si net—in spite of
the fact that the princess is the
granddaughter of both the lent
sultan and the last caliph of Tur-
key.' 3#"■ " i"""
The princess, stymied in apart-
ment hunting, looked ground the
hotel room and said:
"We'd like to entertain some
of our friends. If we invited more
than two people here, we'd have
to go out to make room for them.''
