FOOLED RUMANIANS

There have been many odd experiences with +tese automobiles in Rumania. On one of the first trips a car entered a village not yet captured where the or ficer and his crew were taken TOT Rus sians because the Gennans were not sup posed to have armored cars Just as the crew was being enthusiastically greeted, three Rumanian locomotiVe drivers tried to get their engines away but the automobile was too swift for them. It raced ahead. the crew de- stroyed a portion of the track and the automobile received the engines with a whitening fire, which forced thelr sur render after they had been disabled
 |. On the return to the village the ere" was greeted with white flags.
 KILLED 300 IN MINUTE
 On another occasion an automobile en- countered a force of Rumanian infantry and opened fire before the troops couio seek shelter The Rumanians fled atter 60 seconds of firing from the car. leaving 300 dead and 50 wounded.
 In a recent exploit the commander we: ked his car to the rear Of a pody ol Rumanian infantry and almost be1ore the Rumanians were aware of the car s pres ence it had swept the trenches with ma chine gun fire and driven the defenders out in disorder.
 None of the German automobiles of this type used in Rumania has as yet been disabled or destroyed by opponents.
 The chief advantage of the new auto mobile in contrast with the British ma chine is that it can run at an average speed of 25 miles an hour, as entrusted with the snail-like pace of the entente cars. It can make it's way over any road or even a field.
