Rumanian Minister
Sees No Dispute With
Soviet on bessarabia
Columbia U. Alumni
Told Nation Will Live
At Peace With Neiqhbors

Describing Bessarabia as part
and parcel Of my country" Radu
Irimescu, Rumanian Minister to the
United States, last night expressed
confidence that no dispute would
arise between the Soviet Union and
Rumania over this province, lost by
Russia in 1917 to Rumania.
Speaking before the Columbia
University Alumni Club of WASH
ington at the National Press Club,
Mr.. 1rimeScu, himself an alumnus
of Columbia University, declared his
nation can and will live peacefully
with its neighbors unless molested.
He added, however, that Commissar
Of Foreign Affairs Molotoff of the
Soviet Union recently had assured
the Rumanian envoy to Russia that
the latter country considered the
Bessarabian question closed.
In brief review of his country's
history, Mr., Irimescu said Bessa-
rabia always had been a part OF
Rumania until 1872, when it was
seized by Russia. "It remained un-
der Russian rule for los years
until 19l7-and then its inhabitants
declared their reunion with Ru-
MANIA" he explained.
Too Weak to "Grab."
"Rumania didn't grab Bessarabia
she couldn't" the tall, thick-set
diplomat asserted. "She was fiat on
her back, trying to resist Germany
and at the same time cope with the
Bolshevization of the Russian
Army, which had been aiding her
in fighting off the Germans.
with chaos in Russia in 1917,
Bessarabia, with 100000 Rumani-
ans out of total population of
3200,000, came back to Rumania of
Its own WILL" he continued.
Contrary to popular conception,
Mr.. 1rimescu said, Rumania is not
50 small. 1t has an area slightly
larger than that of peninsular Italy,
with a population of 2O,0O0,OO he
added. OF this number, 15,OO0,O 900
are pure -blooded Rumanians." In
addition, there are still 100000 Ru-
manians living outside their mother
country, according to Mr.. 1rimescu.
Asked if Rumania would fight If
Russia invaded Bessarabia, the Min
lister declined to comment on the
ground that the question was hypo-
thetical.
Reveals Admonition.
He laughingly explained that he
recently got into hot water" when
speaking before a writer's club.
my remarks were cabled abroad
and I received the following cable
gram: Observe more and talk less"
Mr.. Irimescu saw mo unbridgeable
gulf between nationalities provided
the proper environment is present.
Meanwhile, Rumania will continue
to preserve her independence as she
has in the past, he asserted.
In the present European conflict
Rumania has declared her neu-
trality on the basis of international
law, he said. He added that the
former Polish h-Rumanian frontier
which is now Russian is closed, but
that all other frontiers with Russia
are open.
Judge Melvin H. Dalberg, chair
man of the clubs Entertainment
Committee, was in charge of ar
rangements. 1t. Col. Lester G. Will
son, president, presided. Other Of

president; Joseph w. Burns, second

Kiiwanis To
Seek Wider
Road Curve
Discussion II a d of
Mabry's Store Hazard
on Route 1; Hicks
Talks

Discussion was had at the weekly
meeting of the Henderson KiWanis
club Friday evening of an effort to
have the State Highway and Public
Works Commission widen or elimin-
ate the sharp curve on the national
highway at Mabry's store four miles
north of Henderson. The curve has
been the scene of several fatal ac-
cidents, and only a few weeks ago a
prominent merchant of Boston
Mass, lost his life at the spot when
the machine in which he and his son
were returning home from trans
continental tour overturned.
At the Kiwanis meeting Friday
evening, John William Beck suggest
ed that the club endeavor to prevail
upon the highway commission to
widen or eliminate the sharp curve,
distinct hazard to motorists not
familiar with the highway at that
point T. S. Kittrell suggested that
the appeal to the State authorities be
brOadened to an earnest request for
the general widening of the highway
in this section. The matter was re-
ferred to the public affairs committee
with the request that it be brought
to the attention of the proper au-
thorities.
Jasper B.. Hicks, lieutenant COVER
nor of the Kiwanis district, and past
president of the Henderson club,
spoke on Kiwanis membership. He
declared one of the main objectiveS
of Kiwans is the support of the
churches and helping humanity. E.
0. Falkner was in charge of the pro-
gram for the evening, an observance
of the 10th birthday of the organi-
Zation.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Hicks
talk, large birthday cake bearing
Is candles, and prepared by Mrs.
Edgar Bryan, and Mrs. N. T. Nit
chell, was presented to Mr.. Hicks by
the club president, C. E. Greene.
The club voted unanimously to
have social gathering of the club
membership and their wives and in
vited guests at an early date, at
which time games of various kinds
will be provided. A committee to ar
range for the affair was named to
consist of w. R. Turner, chairman,
j. Harry Bryan and H. M. Robinson
AS part of the celebration of the
clubs 10th birthday, Mr.. Falkner
called on "Old Man Happy" Henry
Mangum, who rhymed birthday
greetings to each member of the club
according to their birth month. The
skit brought each Of the 43 members
with some reference, and proved
amusing and highly entertaining to
the membership.
The meeting was presided over by
c. E. Greene, president and the at
tendance was SO percent of the mem
bership Rev. E. Norfleet Gardner,
new pastor of the First Baptist
church, was a guest of M. c. Miles
at the meeting.

School Body
IoAct Upon
Teacherage
Board Members Await
Insurance Adjustment
Before Reaching Con-
clusion; Meeting Is
Held

Whether to rebuild or to tear down
and construct a new building in place
of the city teacherage badly dam
aged by fire early Friday Will not
be decided Immediately by the board
of trustees of the city schools, it was
indicated today. Both c.. w. Knott,
chairman of the board, and E. NJ.
Rollins, school superintendent, were
of the opinion that the board would
prefer to await an insurance adjust
ment before reaching a conclusion.
The board had a meeting sche-
duled for this evening even before
the fire occurred Friday. 1t planned
to elect teachers for the coming year
for the city schools, and to transact
other minor matters, and also to re-
elect Mr.. Rollins for another term.
But the question Of the teacherage
is now expected to be one of the
principal subjects before the meet
ing.
The teacherage was so badly dam
aged by the fire Friday morning
that many who have seen the ruins
have expressed the opinion the struc-
ture was hardly worth restoration,
and that the Wisest course might be
TO undertake new building entirely
Whether the board would reach a
definite decision tonight or merely
refer the matter to {. committee for
further investigation was a matter to
be decided at the session.
