Commenting on the action of Rumania, Von Revent- low writes: “It may be assumed with certainty that Germany and her allies had counted upon Rumanian participation in the war, and haye taken measures in advance. In view of the geo- wphical situation, the presumption 1s permissible that milita develop- ments are imminent.
