Their only hope, in claiming the throne at this junc- ture, is that they might at least, secure a decent pension' from' the government. yi : ; Burmese royalty 1s . waging its own battle. There is no monarch~ ist party in Burma. The Burmese press: takes no -interfst in. their former king's degeendanis. A vast majority of the peeple stand by the decision of the" constituent as. sembly that the countsy, after Brit- ain's withdrawal, 'shall be a sover- eign republic. ' The royal princes and princesses of the house of Thibaw have there- fore organized their own party, called the "descendants of the royal family association," to fight for their rights. Head of the assoclation is 70- year-old Prince of Pyinmana, a nephew of King Thibaw, the last of the rulers of Mandalay. The association has a secretary, a treasurer® and office-bearers, just like any other trade union. In Rangoon, Burmese royalty has issued no manifesto on the eve of the transfer of power. But some months ago 'the princely group wrote to the Anti-Fascist People's Freedom League ' (the government party) leaders telling them 'to re- sign from the government's execu- tive councHl, "as they had no real powers, even in the matter of look- after Burmans of royal blood." The AFPF.L. took no notice of this royal' demand and- the Burm- ese press, which normally takes its: me from the' AFPFL., did like- Some time ago the royal family association sent a memorandum to the secretary of state for . Burma urging the British government, on Britain's withdrawal from Burma, to transfer power to the descend- ants of the Burmese king, from whom they took over the country 60 years ago. The royal family, the memorandum said, would control the administration, pending a na- - tional plebiscite in the issue. of: monarchy. There has thus far been no response from Whitehall to the suggested solution of the transfer of power problem. Pivot of this unique movement is 42-year-old Prince Mekhara Ga- mind, a great-grandson: of the late King Mindon (Thisbaw's father). The prince is secretary of the "De- scendants of the Royal Family As- sociation" and the author of the claim for the throne and the de- mand for pensions for his kinsmen. Prince Gamani, unlike his pre- decessors, does not dress in flowing gorgeous silks, He looks like any average Burman, though he retains the mark of one who has lived for years as an exile in foreign coun- "I don't think any member of the royal family is anxious to be king of Burma," he said. "But a claim is a claim and it must be lodged.' And In any case, the descendants of the king who ruled this country for centuries deserve far' better treatment," : Prince Gamani is a man of few needs. He lives in a little thatch- roofed cottage in the suburbs of Rangoon. He lost his wife some Years ago while in Indo-China as a virtual exile from Burma. His 82- year-old mother now keeps house for him, There are about a dozen mem- bers of the Burmese royal family in Rangoon. The most well-to-do among them is a princess Who mar- ried an Australian bookmaker. DRESS FOR WEATHER It isn't smart to pretend to ig- nore the weather.
