Repatriation of Millions of the Race,
Only One of Her Considerations
(Review of Reviews)
What Rouniania had to gain by the
defeat of the central powers has al
ways been patent. Across her fron
tiers in Transylvania, Bukowina and
the Banat are 3,500,000 people of
Roumanian race and tongue, living
under conditions recalling the plight
of the Italians subject to Austrian
rule in the valley of the Bo before the
liberation of Italy. The dream, the
hope, the purpose of all Roumanian
patriots has ever been to contribute
to the reintegration of the Roumanian
race. To the hour of national and ra
cial deliverance Roumanians have
looked forward for all the years since
Roumania gained her freedom.
Hut such a unification could be
achieved only after the downfall of
Austria-Hungary. Over 40 years |
there has been no promise of such a
dow nfall, and Roumania has marched
with the central powers, as did her
Latin sister. Italy. With a Hohen
zollern sovereign, an aristocracy per
meated by Teutonic influence, Rou
mania has been an ally of the Ger
man emperors. The Russian course
in taking from Roumania Bessarabia
after Plevna gave German diplomat
ists a handel in Bucharest, as French
invasion of Tunis gave them a handle
with Italy.
Yet it was always inevitable in the
case of Roumania. as of Italy, that
the desire for national unity would
some day over ride all arbitrary and
ephemeral political alignments.
Transylvania for the Roumanians,
Trieste and the Trention for the Ital
ians, were reasons why these nations
could not forever remain in the orbit
of the central powers and must be
come their enemies whenever the
moment for the relization of national
hopes arrived.
Had allied diplomats been a little
less stupid, Roumania might have en
i listed when the Russian troops were
at the Carpathians in the spring of
11)15, at the precise moment when It
aly made her decision. Rut that mom
ent was lost and the subsequent def
eats of Russia abolished all chance
for many months.
Yet when Russia did return to the
offenseive, when a second Austrian
collapse followed, when Rulgarian
conquest in the Balkans raised a new

peril to Roumania, nothing could be
more certain than Roumania would
make the decision. Not to be anot
her Belgium or a second Servia, this
was the chief solicitude of Roumanian
statesmen, but not less determined
not to be another Greece and see the
golden moment pass forever and pre
serve a sterile neutrality to the hour
when the lands Roumania desired to
possess were apportioned among the
participants in the war or made the
price of a separate peace with llun
gary.
A good many foolish words have
been spoken in criticism of the Rou
manian course. Vet the fundamental
fact is that millions of men and
women, who are Roumanians by race
and tongue and desire to be Rou- j
manian by nationality, have been over
long years held captives in Austrian
and Hungarian provinces and subject-!
ed to the most stupid and intolerable;
attacks upon their language and their |
racial -individuality. The desire of
men of a race to be united is one of
the most deep seated of human emo
tions. The desire of the Italians of
the I*o valley to be joined to Sardinia,
to exchange Hapsburg for Savoy
sovereignty, supplies one of the fine
pictures of 19th century history. The
real driving power in Roumania was
the same If Roumania realizes her
dream she will be a nation of nearly
90,000 square miles, holding 13,000,- J
000 people, not less than 10.000,000 of
whom will be Roumanian by tnogue.
Among the remainder there will he
not one, but several races and tong
ues and in substantially all the terri-J
tory Roumania will acquire, Rou- j
manians will hold a clear majority.
In the east as in the valley of the ^
Po the Hapsburg empire drew arbi-.
trary lines separating men of the
same race and sought to maintain
the lines by crushing the spirit of
her captives. Her failure in Italy
was not more striking than her fail
ure in the east, and as she failed with
the Roumanians she failed with the
Serbs.

LORD FRENCH ON INVASION
Lord French, speaking at Wolver
hampton on Saturday, said that
whenever we heurd of navul engage
ments in the Channel it wa* always
possible that behind more enemy
ships of war transports might be
bringing troops to land in this coun
try at some unoccupied point.
‘The whole history of war,” he con
tinued, “teaches us that what happens
is something that we do not expect.
This war has taught us this if an\
v\;ir ever did Therefore I want you
to remember that invasion is possible.
I do not say it is probable or im
minent or menacing—but it is pos
sible.”—London Daily Mail.
