Anxious Over King
Ferdinand's Condition

Vienna, Nov. 22.-(P)-Public anx-
iety in Rumania over King Ferdi-
nand's illness has been increased,
Bucharest advices say. and that the
attending physicians are dissatisfied
with the progress made under the
treatment originally decided upon.
and have decided that more radical
measures are imperative. They have
summoned a French surgeon to give
an opinion as to the practicability of
an operation.
In the meantime the king appears
able to carry out his usual duties,
and takes an occasional drive While
officials continue to declare that his
condition is satisfactory such assur-
ances do not appear sufficient to al
lay popular apprehension.
