Rumania Cuddles
Up 10 Axis

BUCHAREST. Rumanla - Ru-
mania's adherence to the German
Italian axis was regarded in
diplomatic quarters today as as
sured after a statement by Foreign
Minister Mihail Manoilescu that
the country's peace and economic
situation now were guaranteed by
Germany and Italy and that those
powers would become Rumania's
best customers.
Addressing a press conference
after 4 cabinet meeting last night,
Manoilescu said Rumania wanted
to collaborate with Hungary and
Bulgaria and to exchange minority
populations with them.
Referring indirectly to Russia s
seizure OF Bessarabia and Northern
Bukovina, he said Rumania had
suffered this blow at a moment
when 1t was unprepared, but that
'Rumania knows how to defend
herself and will do so II neces-
sary."
On the question Of territorial
concessions. Manoilescu said Ru-
mania was willing to discuss an
exchange of territories with its
neighbors, but that Rumanian ter
ritory should always be occupied
by Rumanians.

.Appraises
The War
BY j. w. r. MASON
United Press War Exert

Recurring discussions in Europe
about next winters food and fuel
supplies continue to indicate that
the continental countries do not
expect the war to end this year.
German reports this spring that
Hitler would be in London dictat-
ing peace terms before the end of
the summer have begun to fade
while Europe turns to the fast ap-
preaching problem of famine as
wars winter weapon.
There really are two problems
involved in Europe's food question
The first concerns shortages in
the conquered countries and the
second involves Germany and
Italy. The two are associated,
however. because of German seiz-
ures of food in the occupied terri
tories. and necessity for Germany
to pass some Of this captured ma
terial TO Italy.
Germany and Italy are try
ing to starve Great Britain
into surrender, and the British
are endeavoring TO prevent a
totalitarian victory by with
holding supplies from the
enemy nations. A blockade Is
weapon OF warfare always
utilized when circumstances
permit, and, In the end, sea
power Is the usual instrument
OF victory.
Humanitarianism recoils from
starvation as a means of winning
wars. but in an era when women
and children are bombed from the
air and submarines sink ships nj
sea without rescuing the crews
moral pressure to stop a hunger
blockade lacks force. Germany
however. is trying TO use the mora
issue as means OF securing aic
from abroad to balance next win,
ter's food shortages.
II Germany cancels plans fol
invading Great Britain or if the at.
tempt is made and fails, the wal
then will become a test of physica
and moral endurance, with fooo
possibly deciding the issue. West.
ern hemisphere supplies now are
blockaded by the British fleet.
Germany may try TO break
the blockade through moral
pressure, II Hitler believes the
western hemisphere will re-
spond Ia his moral appeal for
indirect aid.
Great Britain might counter
German efforts of this kind
by refusing 10 listen to the
totalitarian inspired argu-
ments.
Should the war go through mex

TO play an important part on tn,
European continent. II vitamir
deficiencies can be made to weaker
