Double Game IL Seen.

Light is thrown on the dissensions of
the allied commission at Budapest and
the double game that European poll
ticians are playing, of which the Ameri-
cans here feel they are the victims. in
a special despatch in the Matin por-
traying the situation there. This des-
patch comedies with an increasing show
OF resentment by the American mission
over the Rumanian developments.
The politics OF the Quai dorsay," I"
says the correspondent, who is the
Mottns foreign editor, ''is a policy
friendly to Rumania, and II Premier
Clemenceau signs happily in the name
OF the Supreme Council the condemna-
tory notes sent to Bucharest, Foreign
Minister Pichon loses no opportunity to
prove to our allies our friendly senti-
ments."
In subStantiation of the assertion
that this double game Is being played,
OF which the American delegates long
have been suspicious, the correspondent
mentions the fact that France has lust
offered to buy $4,000 carloads of wheat
at price very remunerative to Ru-
mania and also to negotiate for. vast
quantities of other cereals from Ru-
mania. He adds that the King of Ru-
mania and Premier Bratiano have ex-
biesseu tneI appreciation OF ali tniS,
despite the economic blockade Of Ru-
mania which the Americans and Brit
ish are trying to enforce as the chief
weapon of the future League OF Ma
tions.
He mentions dinner at Bucharest
at which the Rumanian stan cheered
and toasted the French minister. add
ing: Thus France makes up by much
official attention for the Allies severe
policy toward Rumania."
He describes Gen. Bandholtz as rag
ing about Budapest accompanied by
many American officers, adding:
Gen. Bandholtz without doubt Is an
echo OF the bad opinion his compatriots
have of Rumania. 1t is well known that
the origin of this antipathy Is deception
by the Standard OIL Company. which
last June wanted to buy the Rumanian
oil fields. its offer being refused because
sale was pending to French and Brit
