A BITTER REFERENCE
COPENHAGEN, November 24
The arrival of M. Leon Trotsky, wearied by his long and devious journey from Turkey, during which lie was prohibited from landing in France, afforded Prince Aage, nephew of the King of Denmark, who at present is serving with the Foreign Legion, opportunity for a biting epigram. Trotsky is staying with friends and spent to-day in bed. He will speak on Sunday, detailing the genesis of the Soviet.
“lias Denmark forgotten that a Danish Prinesss was Tsarina?” asks Prince Aage, in the “Eerlingske Hidende.” “and that her pons and grandchildren were murdered by the Government of which Trotsky was a prominent member?
