JAPANESE EDITOR
TELLSOF RUMAN|A
He Thinks War viii Last Another
Year and Then Be a
Draw

That the formal entrance OF Ru
mania into the great European conflict
on the side of the Allies presages tn,
end of the war is the belief of Kwazar
Kayahara, a prominent Toxic editor
who is now in Honolulu.
Since coming to this city / have
followed the war news appearing in
the local newspapers with marked in.
terest, the Nippon writer said. THE
declaration of Rumania on the side of
! the Allies is one of the biggest news
stories that has appeared since the be.
g'Rningfof the war. II has been known
or some time that the Balkan state
was patiently weighing the subject for
a long while.
Before leaving Japan announced
that Rumania would join the Allies
and am naturally glad that my pre-
nIction proved correct. -r
As i un -erstand the subject. Ru.
mania was merely waiting until she
tnOught that the Germanic powers
were growing weak before jcining
what she believes will be the winning
side in the conflict. The fact that
King Ferdinand s country has thrown
in her lot with the Allies is an indica
ton that the Central Powers are face
to face with exhaustion. Otherwise
Rumania never ould have taken this
decisive step.
1t seems to me that the war can.
not be prolonged for more than another
year But this does not mean that
the Teutonic Powers will be defeated.
l am still of the opinion that the war
will end in a draw. 1t is probably
true that the Germans are not as
strong as they were and that it will be
impossible for them to defeat the Ais
lies. 'On the othes hand, 1 believe that
they are still strong enough TO main
lam their present position until the
war comes TO an end.
THE tremendous power of the Bull
garian army, however, should not be
"nderestimated. They are wonderful
fighters and the Bulgar army is well
0. ganized. The part they take in the
will have an important result
in the outcome. do not believe that
there are drawer or more skilled sol
diers in all Europe than the BuIgnrs.
For reckless courage they are only
to the japanese soldiers.
While the military power of Bulgaria
is not as large as some of the other
countries involved, the discipline OF
the army is of such a high order that
t will have to be seriously reckoncd
with in figuring out the final result"
