MISSION TO CAIRO
RUMANIAN POLITICIAN FEELERS FOR PEACE (11 a.m.) LONDON, March 14. A Rumanian politician, Prince Stirbey, went to Cairo yesterday with a special pass * enabling him to enter Allied territory, indicating that the mission is receiving the serious attention of the British authorities. No great expectations are placed in London in the reported journey of Prince Stirbey to Turkey to inquire about the terms of peace for Rumania, He is the head of a wellknown family and a very wealthy man. He has lived for many years in Switzerland and continued to maintain contacts with the National Peasant Party and leader, Dr. Maniu, but he is not known to have any relations with the present Rumanian regime such as would give his mission outstanding importance. He is not the only Rumanian notability who has been inquiring in likely quarters about the possibilities of peace since the Russians have advanced from Kiev.
