DANISH WOMAN BUTTS

members rose on all sides In protest
but the woman. addressing the House
generally, shouted:

the explanation of this remarkable
incident is to be found in the attitude
Of the Parliament and particularly oil
the Socialists towards national defense
Some time ago special commission Of
the chamber appointed to study and re-
mort on the question recommended the
fortification not only of Copenhagen
hut Of the south Of Denmark on the
German frontier and also larger
measures of compulsory service. II
was pointed out that by these meas
ures only could Denmark have th'
means of preserving her neutrality anc
Of making herself heard when the
safety of the country was at stake.
But the measures met with the OPP
nosition of the Socialists, who are II
favor Of leaving their country prey
TO other powers, and of the Radica

higher than vital interests. The Lab
