Just at this critical moient the enciny drove the Russian line back into Galicia, and the hopes which had formed of joining hands with Roumania were dashed to the ground. From that time--some tighteen months ago-until now Roumania, though court: ed by both sides, has been content to watch the progress of events, meanwhile keeping her powder dry. The fact that she has now abandoned this attitude may be regarded as proof that she is convinced of the ultimate triumph of the Entente Powers. Indeed, she is frank enough to admit this in the statement which she has issued of her reasons for going to war. Not only is she moved by anxiety. for the Boumanians in Austria-Hungary, who are exposed to the risks of war and invasion, but she desires to take her place "alongside the Powers who are able most effectively to assist her to realise her -nutional ideal." That ideal, of course, is to include co-nationals within a racial frontier by acquiring Transylvania and the Bukuvina, from Hungary, and Bestrabia from Russia.
