WASHINGTON, ID. c., July 10:-
The three Scandinavian countries
Sweden, Norway and Denmark
united already by bonds of common
language, laws and customs, will in
the near future be united as one
nation under one king.
that's the belief of Lars larsen
Ledet, n of Denmark's greatest
newspaper editors, who, a been
slowly and quietly advocating a union
of the three nations ever since the
war taught them the necessity of
close cooperation to keep alive.
The united nation probably would
take the name Scandinavia.
"Since Sweden and Norway were
separated in 1905" said Larsen
Ledet, 'the friendship between the
two countries has increased n has
been immensely strengthened by the
war.
