Description

Original caption: Washington, DC. Ex-king Michael, center, of Romania, said today that his country is living in "misery, want and fear" under the present communist regime. In his first public address in the US, Michael told a National Press Club Luncheon that his homeland has known no period more tragic than the present "in all its long and painful history."
