The exposure printed below was sent to The DAILY WORKER by the Berlin office of this onganiza- tion. A letter accompanying the story said that the facts had just been secured by its Roumanian Section and were forwarded to Berlin. A translation into English from Roumanian was made there and a copy In the meantime, copies of the Vienna Rote Fahne of October 17 reached us, containing the story in German. In order that we may not be open to the charge of manufacturing a story out of thin air, else- where in this issue we reproduce a photograph of this report as it appeared in the Vienna Paper.

Here is the story coniiected with this village: Tt was in 1917, the hostile German army of Von Mackensen had penetrated far into the country. Cotzofanesti lay to the ear of the Roumanian army and served as the headquarters of the staff, and of the war correspondents. It also held a clearing Station for the wounded. , ¢ Queen: Marie of Roumania, her two daughters, Eliza- beth and Maria, and a number of ladies of the court, were “sacrificing” themselves on the tar of patriotism and tending the wounded.
