CAUSE Or RUPTURE

LONDON, Jan. 30.--A London
Times correspondent with the Ru.
manian troops says that the Ru
manians' invasion OF Bessarabia was
one of the causes of rupture of reIa
tions with Russia. It was in re-
sponse to repeated appeals OF the
Bessarabians to the Rumanians to
restore order and have their prop
erty saved from looters
Conditions have been greatly dis
turbed by the Bolsheviki regime.
Another reason was that Bessara-
bia contained supplies belonging to
Rumania which the Bolsheviki had
threatened to destroy Saving these
supplies was matter of life and
death, involving the question OF
Rumania's absolute absolution from
her allies. the correspondent said
