Rumanian Patriotic Body Dissolved

Bucharest, Nov. 18.

The newly created organization "Pro-Transylvania" was dissolved here yesterday by special decree of the Rumanian Council of Ministers.

The decree charged that some of the members of "Pro-Transylvania" began "political activities of a provocative nature, thereby proving that the organization had other aims than those for which it was organized,"

M. Jules Maniu, three times Prime Minister of Rumania, and a number of leaders of the old Rumanian democratic party, were members of the now defunct organization.—United Fress,
