Only the more daring London newspapers have reprinted the American press stories about a possible separation, and then without adding details or comment of their own. As far as the British Broadcasting Corporation is concerned, not even a hint of the rift between Margaret and Tony has been broadcast. The result is that the average Briton remains in blissful ignorance of the royal domestic crisis that has created a sensation in the United States and on the Continent. The silence is not due to any official censorship but is self-imposed by British media.

It stems partly from an exaggerated sense of fair play. It is considered to be to sandbag members of the royal family, who cannot hit back in their cwn defense. But the silence heads. looks like he also reflects a genuine concern for the British mon- ests you most on the small screen, place Barbara as the girl in a tub of soap bubbles on a well-known commercial (oh, those Or as the tall, dark and pretty lead for five years on the Smart Or as Dean sidekick on si.v of his shows, plus dozens of others.

The estrangement between Princess Margaret and Tony, both aged 40, arises from a fundamental clash of personalities.

in the opinion of those who know the couple. In inner palace circles, Tony is regarded as an overgrown hippie, a view his wife sometimes shares. Before his marriage to Princess Margaret in May 1960, Tony chose his friends from among artists, writers, actors and fashion models, people whom the palace ordinarily considers to be the When it became evident that the princess had her heart set on marrying Tony, however, the royal establishment reluctantly gave the couple its blessing. The reasoning then was that Tony could be housebroken. Let him keep his photography as a hobby, as long as he continue as a professional photographer, the establishment argued.

Tony was even encouraged to build a studio equipped with the latest photographic gadg- band.

For the rift in her marriage, which was a gossip topic as long ago as 1967, Princess Margaret is partly to blame, in the opinion of those who have observed her closely in recent months. seems to have become wrapped up in her children to the exclusion of one friend commented recently, referring to her absorption in her children, Viscount Linley, aged 9, and Lady Sarah Armstrong Jones, aged 7. Margaret has neglected her appearance a woman who prides herself on being a smart dresser remarks.

used to take an interest in clothes, but now she looks positively dowdy. no wonder that eyes have strayed There is a parallel to the present situation in the 1936 abdication crisis of King Edward VIII (now the Duke of PRINCESS MARGARET at a movie premiere last November (left) and with husband Lord Snowdon in 1967 (above), just after first rumors of a marital rift between them had been heard.

But Tony Armstrong Jones has refused to be tamed, or to kowtow to royal custom. Not only did he not give up his professional career, but he signed a contract with The Sunday Times.

Then, as now, only the American press carried accounts of the crisis, reporting the growing attachment for Mrs. Wallis Simpson (now the Duchess of Windsor).

For six weeks the British public remained in the dark while the dramatic clash between the King and Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin occurred behind the scenes. It was only on Dec. 2, 1936, when the crisis was nearly over, that the news broke on an unsuspecting public.

Some Britons wonder if the present drama involving Margaret and Tony will unfold in the same way, the public being presented with the accomplished fact of their separation. The couple recently made a rare public appearance in Barbados and those who have watched the growing estrangement between the two hope that somehow the marriage can be patched up, for the sake of the children involved, as well as for the untarnished image which the family has so far presented to the world.
