(By Associated Press.)

LONDON, July 11-How the Ru-
manian armies lost an opportunity Of
annihilating the German and Bugarl-
ian armies in the Dobruja in 1916 is
revealed in a confidential document
which has just reached the Associated
Press, from an authoritative source in
Rumania.
The document contains an account
of a converse ton between Field Mar
shall Won Mackensen and the Ruman-
ian military leaders which occurred
shortly after the Rumanian peace
terms were signed. Won Mackensen
declared that the failure of the Ru-
manians to press their advantage in
1916 changed the whole course of the
war. He said that his entire army
could easily have been defeated and
forced to surrender and this might
have been followed by a separate
peace with Bulgaria which would have
separated Turkey from her allies and
changed the whole balance of power in
the east.
The Rumanian failure, the Memo
randum states, was not due to the mil
itary leaders, but the short sighted
ness of the politicians at Bucharest.
In September, 1916, Gen. Averseau.
commander-in-ch of the Rumanian
army and by far the ablest of all the
Rumanian generals had taken an army
of four divisions and crossed the Dan
ube into the heart of the enemy's
country He found a clear path into
the heart of the German-Bulgarian
army and penetrated fifteen miles with
a view to cutting Off their communica-
tions and striking them from the rear.
General Averseau's own position was
safe. for behind him he had eight
divisions Of support and reinforce
ments including Serbian and Ruman-
ian troops of the first quality.
Command From Cabinet.
But Averseau had neglected to cut
the wires which connected him with
the politicians in the Rumanian CAPT.
tai, and he only got fifteen miles be-
yond the Danube when there came a
peremptory order to withdraw his
forces It was an absolute command
from the war cabinet. Averseau tried
to reason with the political chieftains
over a long distance telephone wire
and even threatened to resign, but the
politicians had decided and refused to
change the decision. The cabinet, it
appeared, felt that there was danger
of the German armies on the other
side Of Rumania-the Carpathian
'front.' breaking through and doing
a great deal of harm at a time when
Rumania's army was far afield. The
politicians timidly preferred defen-
sive policy to a daring offensive and
after a day or two of delay, Averseau
and his army withdrew from their
commanding position in VonMacken-
sens rear and retired back across the
Danube.
The Germans we're much puzzled
by this manoevure and never were

at the very moment when his cause
seemed won. Won Mackensen was an
old pre-war friend Of Averceau and

That was why Won Mackensen
sought out Averseau during the peace
