Admfres Mussolini, TrOtsky
The Prince declared he admired
Mussolini's Fa scism. but he also ad-
mirad Leon Trotsky az a constructive
leader All references to the rule OF
his mother and Premier Bratia no
were indirect. but constant. He re-
ferred repeatedly to dema gogues and
selfish politicians.
As he made these bitter comments
on the eve of his remuneration. il
leads to belief that he hoped King
Ferdinand and Marie would renounce
the throne in his favor. but as they
did not, he abdicated his rights Of
succession.
