"Rounrania has repeatedly offer. ed the Russian Government a non. aggression pact, first at the Genoa conference in 1924, secondly at the League of Nations meeting in 1926, and the last time indirectly through the Franco-Roumanian arbitration and friendship pact made in Paris, By a special clause to the last nam- ed agreement Roumania feels itself permanently obliged to conclude n non-aggression agreement with Russia, "We shall never attack Russia, either with regular or irregular troops recruited on Roumanian soil, Under this provision Rou- mania can never he a danger to Russia; we have nothing to gain by war with any country, and more- over will never join any power to fight Russia. Our army is solely for defensive purposes."

On Explorations Alone Proceeding, the vice-consul re- marked that Amundsen gave them many anxieties, He went on his expeditions and was alone in the world for long periods, but while the world was wondering and won- dering he was working his way back to civilization, He was a fine leader, had a keen intellect, and iJ d tre dous willpower.
