Rumania Calls Men

Supplies Concentrated As Germany Increases Threats for More Oil
BUCHAREST. Feb. 22—(UP) —Rumania ordered remaining reservists to the colors today, coincident with increasing tension over German demands for oil and disquieting reports from Hungary.
Artillery, ammunition, gasoline and other war supplies were being sent to the frontiers. particularly the Hungarian border, and work on frontier fortifications was speeded up.
Germany’s determination to get more oil out of Rumania was more evident tonight when it was learned from foreign oil experts that the Reich is now ready to begin work on construction of a large refinery costing approximately $1,500,000 to be built near the heart of the Rumanian oil district.
DISPUTE OVER AREA
In addition to this, it was said. Germany is spending upward of $100,000 to increase capacity of another refinery in which German capitalists are interested.
Hungary has a long-standing dispute with Rumania over the Transylvania area given to Rumania after the World war.
The last groups of reservists, now joining the colors, previously had been ordered to report by March 1. A high Rumanian official reiterated that Rumania will have 2.000.000 men in the field by March, which means almost complete mobilization.
MOVEMENTS PLANNED
He added that today’s troop movements were planned several weeks ago but observers noted that the country’s increased military preparations coincided with the expected arrival of Dr. Karl Clodius, German economic negotiator, who is expected to present a plan which later would result in Germany claiming Rumania’s entire oil production.
Rumania, crammed with oil, timber. and grain, vital to the belligerents figuratively is walking a tight rope between Germany and the Allies in the hope of profiting by selling supplies to both sides and herself keeping out of the European war.
When reports reaching London alarmed the British recently and caused fears there that Germany would get the bulk of Rumania’s oil. Britain suspended export licenses on goods destined for Rumania. This week Rumania in a lengthy memorandum assured Britain Germany’s
011	quota would not be enlarged and tension with London lessened.
Ad Men Discuss Jobs, Success
Chances of getting a job in the advertising business, and methods of succeeding in it, will be discussed by several speakers at the “Advertising Forum of 1940" in the music room of the Biltmore hotel tomorrow. Members of Gamma Alpha Chi and Alpha Delta Sigma, professional advertising fraternities, are invited.
The meetings under the auspices of the fifth district Junior Pacific Advertising Clubs association and will feature Dr. W. Bailentine Henley, director of coordination, as master of ceremonies.
Men leading the discussions are all recognized throughout California for their knowledge of advertising and its allied fields. William D. Shaw will preside as general conference chairman.
