Rumania Must Answer.
Note of Supreme Council
Question of Sending Repre-
sentative to Bucharest
Considered.

Paris, Sept. s.-The supreme council
today again considered the failure of
Rumania to respond in writing to the
notes of the council and discussed the
sending of a representative of high
standing to Bucharest to insist upon
an immediate reply. No agreement
was reached but it is probable a de-
cision will be arrived at tomorrow.
The difficulty encountered by the
council was in finding a satisfactory
representative who was willing to I'M
dertake the task. Apparently 1t has
no desire to select an American for the
mission as the European members are
said to feel that he would be likely to
prove too outspoken.
