Crown Prince Carol may wed Constantine's daughter

November 19, 1920


Is Crown Prince Carol of Roumania about to become engaged? He arrived several days ago in Lucerne, Switzerland, from Bucharest, and is "constantly seen in the company of Princess Helen of Greece," according to a London Times, which was published by the New York Times. The princess is the daughter of the former King Constantine and Queen Sophie of the Hellenes.
The engagement is expected to be announced within a few weeks. This betrothal is regarded "as likely to have an important effect on the future of the Balkans."

Crown Prince Carol and Princess Helen are second cousins.
