RUMANIA’S CASE.
REASON FOR PRECAUTIONS,
TROOPS ON FRONTIER
Received March 28. 1.45 p.m. BUCHAREST, March 27. M. Calinescu (Home Minister and Vice-Premier) states: “We will fight with all our might lor the integrity or our country. Rumania took military precautions oil March 15 because Hungary was concentrating troops on the frontier, and it was shown by wireless announcements that it was aggressive toward Rumania.” “Not desiring foreign territory, Rumania refused the offer of the former Premier (Father Voloshin) of annexation. M. Calinescu added. “The German-Rumanian agreement was exclusively economic. General Gafeneu said that Rumania had not intervened with Ruthenia because of her friendship to Poland and her understanding of Hungarian desires.” M. Calinescu declared that had Germany raised the question of Rumania s independence he would immediately have broken off the trade pact negotiations.
