Leon Trotzky wants to come to Germany for treatment by a German professor who operated on him when he visited Berlin incognito in 1923, it was learned here following an interview Trotzky granted press correspondents in Constantinople.

Trotzky stated that he desired the same doctor to treat him because no other knows his constitution so well. He hopes that the German government will permit him to reside in Germany and promises not to intervene in politics.
