GREECE NOW SURE RUMANIA
WILL JOIN ENTENTE ALLIES

Athens, (via Paris), March 20.-The
impression prevails in high political
circles at Athens that Rumania shortly
will abandon her policy OF neutrality
in favor Of the entente allies.
Should Rumania enter the war,
Greek officials would be placed in an
embarrassing position, the force Of
which already is felt.
The feeling of allied diplomatists
seems to be that if Greece desires to
enter the war now she will have to
do so on her own initiative and with
no conditions with respect to terri
torial compensation
