Rumania Accepts Offer

Loudoun, May 10.

Rumania has indicated her willingness to accept Soviet guarantees of her independence as part of the new eastern European security system, M. Ivan Maisky, Soviet Ambassador to London, told the British Foreign Secretary yesterday.

He also asked Viscount Halifax to clarify certain points of the latest British reply to Soviet proposals for an Anglo-Soviet military alliance United Press, First it was the Soviet Union, but with the fall of Litvinov, the interest turned to Japan and nów to the alleged Papal negotiation.

The "Deutsche Diplomatisch-Poli-lish Korrespondenz" stated yesterday that there is no such word as "intimidation" in the German and Italian political dictionary.

Uttering a plain warning to Poland, the "Korrespondenz! declares "the solidarity between the axis partners which was now announced publicly, will gain particular significance for those who are lacking any foundation for estimation of the realities of power and without having considered the consequences have allowed themselves to be enticed prematurely into a constellation in which they have been accorded a modest but exposed position in the service of foreign interests.—Trans-Ocean.
