In fact, young America is indebted to Rumania for vindicating George Barr McCutcheon and his glit- tering procession of princes, princesses and kings. When Carol came flying back from exile to the throne little more could be said than that Rumania o'n‘cek more had out-Graustarked Grau- stark. Actually, however, the United States has a more important, if less glamor- ous, interest in Rumania of today. We have a commercial and nnlnchl inter- est of considerable moment. The com- mercial interest, a matter of American sexports to Rumania, is well founded. Arrive in Bucharest today and nine out of ten taxis waiting for the Orient Express are American cars of a great variety of makes. Between 85 and 90 per cent of all automobliles bought in Rumania in a_year are of American manufacture. This is but one exam- ple of the open trade door Rumania presents to us. More American Loans Likely. As to our financial interest, it is now constituted of only a few American loans, including one just completed for telephone modernization by the Inter- national Telephone & Telegraph Co., but other such loans will undoubtedly follow in the next few years. We have reason, then, to regard re- cent events in this Balkan kingdom with something more than delight at romanticism having a last glittering tilt against the twentieth century’s matter-of-fact armor. Rumania rep- resents what, since the war, has been an_economic tragedy and what for the future ought to be an economic op- rtunity. As a result, the American g:nnen man and banker has a right to know what has been happening in re- cent years to Rumanian economy, where n uunds today and what its It is not a simple matter to meet these inquiries a in a brief survey, nor has it to gather all the data one would like, to have on the subject. one remark should preface wen a boiled-down resume of 's ech- nomic_situation and its relation ‘to ted hias gleaned from independent souwces, much of it from business men and/ex- observers who have lived in Ru- report either of Rumanian wlmu or Rumnhl n economics would be of no value, Population Greater Since War. ‘With that idea in mind, ione can turn from the engrossing persamal prob- lems of King Carol and th- new gov- ernmental order associated 'with his ascension to the throne and consider this outpost between Europe and Rus- sia and the Orient as an economic entity.

Last year Rumania reached the peak of its oil ucuon v“{uh the :lnbll: amount of produc\n: country in the world.

It is estimated, llt:mu.‘h I u‘d& not k‘r‘ww upl:m ;le'l:t authority, enough gas has been desf there to illuminate New York City for 40 years. In any case, this well is a mute witness to Rumania‘s great oil riches, as yet but partially touched. King Carol has reason to speak with pride of his country's re- sources. A similar story could be. told, if space permitted, of the Rumanian forests. Turning to country’s financial condition, the flnetunlam of the cur- rency command attention. After the war the lei stood at 35 to the dollar. During 1926 its downward march be- came dizzy. In January, 1926, it fell to 260 to the dollar, In June of the same year it touched 250 to the dollar, Aftel H‘html.g 3 t during l’l?’l T 8] i it t about 105 lel to the d and in bru-ry. 929, by e of a loan of $102,000,000, it was stabll- ized at the rate of 165—168 to the dol- lar, or 807—817 to the pound. Before the war the lel was five to the dollar. Bank Rate Advances. Meanwhile the bank rate, fixed at 6 per cent at the beginning of the war, was raised to 8 per cent in March, 1529, and to.9 per cent last December.

Trade Balance Has Varied. In 1928 Rumania had an unfavorable trade balance of approximately five billion lei, and in 1929 the excess of over exports was still about one billion lei. For 1930 a favorable trade balance is anticipated. From 1922 on the country has had a favorable bal- ance during five years, with three years in the minus column. As to Rumania’s nnlnnll debt, this| table will give some light: ++ 26,139,000,000 By the stabilization loan of $102,! ooo - 000 the foreign debt was increases 1929 by 17,000,000,000 lei and fl’le ‘I‘l' ternal debt reduced by 0630000000 through the revaluation of gold jn national bank. The annuities of t.he foreign debts were paid by the tobacco, salt and match monopolies, the first two organized with a sinking fund and the last ceded to the Swedish match kings, Krueger & Toll, It is worth remarking that Rumania has met and is meeting promptly the annuities of her war debts to the United States, France and Italy. The cost of service on the Rumanian national debt in 1929 was 8123000000 lei, opposed to a cost of 3,654,000,000 1925, but it must be remembered th: the currency had depreciated badly -nd has been stabilized in the interim.

Long-Term Credit Needed. In response to my query as to Ru- mania’s most pressing needs, one banker and economist, who is outside the realm of politics, replied: “The most serious economic problem of today is to find long-term credits for agriculture and industry, so as to in- crease the currency circulation to the normal rate of $20 for each inhabitant of the country. The money in circu- stead of the present 21,000,000,000. normal plane, the second thing for the King and the government to do is to reduce the number of officials who are E nothing but living at the expense or the Rumanian taxpayer. these officials, who today are little more country as workmen, agriculturists or tradesmen.
