1. President Wilson declares for
recovery Of Transy1vania and other
unredeemed provinces peopled by
Rumanians.
2. The allies agree to furnish arms
and ammunition to the Rumanian
army, striped by Germany when she
inflicted the enforced peace OF Bu-
charest.
This is the situation as outlined to
the United Press today.
Bulgaria's collapse. the virtual
elimination of Turkey from the war
and the weakening of Austria Hun
gary have encouraged Rumania to
renew the struggle which she was
forced to cut short when the Ger
mans pressed the allies in the west
and forced Russia out of the war
Z President Wilson's latest declara-
ton that the war must go on Until
German autocracy was wiped from
the earth has aroused renewed hopes
among Rumanian leaders.
Rumania's resumption of the war
against the central powers would fa-
cilitate the reconstruction of the
eastern front It would open the
way for an allied attack along the
eastern frontier of Austria Hungary
and for penetration of Russia.

One of President Wilson's official

peace problem, outlined the situation
to the United Press thus today:
German autocracy is beaten, knows
it and throws itself on the mercy of
President Wilson.
But no chance will be taken with
Prussian treachery. Before there is
any armistice, such terms must be ar
ranged by the military and naval ad-

Germany has absolutely no opoortun-

The war has reached the third
stage in the Wilsonian program.
The first was to determine that
Germany could not beat us nd that
