Had the Roumanian Government adopted the standpoint not to favour any of the belligerent Powers it would have been a perfectly correct attitude, viewed from a neutral standpoint, but she never did adopt such standpoint, as is shown by her allowing the Serbians to receive transports of Russian ammunition via the Danube, thus showing great partiality.

When all attempts failed, the munitions were transmitted, partially at any rate, through other means.
At that time, too, Russian soldiers were allowed in Roumania and were not molested, whereas ours were invariably interned.
Two Austrian airmen once landed by mistake in Roumania, and were, of course, interned immediately.

The one was a cadet of the name of Berthold and a pilot whose name I have forgotten.

From their prison they appealed to me to help them, and I sent word that they must endeavour to obtain permission to pay me a visit.

A few days later the cadet appeared, escorted by a Roumanian officer as guard.
