A notable ine | stance of this is Germany's fallure to agsume liability for the 2,000,000,= 000 lei issued by the Germans dur- ing their occupation of Rumania, which has been redeemed by the Rumanian government, In consequepnce of the develop- ments, Financo Minister Bratiano an= rounces that the Rlumanjan govern= | ment is disposed to withdraw the present right of German goods to enter Rumania at the so-called con= ventional tarift rates. Such with- drawal would mean that German im- porls would pay duties three times higher than those of other countries. The German pre-war exports to Rumania were 65 per cent of Ru- mania’s imports, and the Germans have made rapid strides in the past two years toward regaining a dom- t economic: hold on the Ru- | manian markets. As Rumanian gx- poris to Germany are insignificant, it is felt that Germany would be the heavy loser in a tarift war, To Continue in Charge Previdence, Feb. 7.—~Notices were posted in all the B, B. and R., Knight mills here and in the Paw- tuxet valley that the plants would continye in operation for a second period of 16 weeks under a bond- holders committee.
