Part of Denmark's navy
Denmark has decided it takes more than one peace-loving nation to play at Disarmament. Ever since the Social Democrats came into power under Prime Minister Stauning, the tiny island kingdom of Christian X has pared its military Budgets down to the fast kroner, partly because it realizes it in futile to spend enormous sums for defence with the nation so open to invasion at any time. But with the advent of the German Nazis to power, Denmark has been forced to turn hack on its dis- arming activities due to the current propaganda to reunite Schleswig province with Germany, which had been returned to Denmark through a plebiscite after the World war, almost 73 years after Prus- sin tore it from the Danish kingdom. Premier Stauning has moved armed police and soldiers to the unrestful frontier to show the world that Denmark means business.
