VIENNA, Austria, February 13.—A troublesome political crisis was fore- shadowed in Rumania today with the arrival at Bucharest of Nicholas Titu- lescu, Minister to London, on the sum- mons of King Carol. When in trouble or in doubt, King Carol always turns to Mr. Titulescu, and the King has canceled all audiences over the week end so that he can un- | interruptedly consult with him. | . The ministry of the patriarchal Prof. Nicholas Jorga, King Carol’s old tutor, |is thought to b: doomed because the strong man of the government, Finance Minister, Constantine Argetolanu, is | not getting on with Prof. Jorga. King Carol wents a new government of a national concentration character. Two things bother King Carol: The Polish-Russian and the Baltic Rus- sia pacts, and the terrible economic sit- uation, which has been only slightly relieved by the recent small loan ob- tained by Mr. Argetolanu in Paris.
