ROUMANIAN JEWISH SOL-
DIERS PLEAD TO JOIN THE
RUSSIAN ARMY.
Kishinev.—A large number of Rou-
manian soldiers, who were forced to
leave the Roumanian Army btcause of
the unremitting persecution directed
against them by anti-Semites in the
army, have gathered in Kishinev.
They have expressed their wilingness
and eagerness to enter the Russian
Army and thus continue their fight
for the ideals and aims of the Allies.
According to a special clause in a
treaty governing the relations be-
tWeen Russia and Roumania, the Rus-
sian Government is compelled to send
these Roumanian soldiers back to the
service which they have left, but
many Jewish organizations in Russia
are niaking a strenuous effort to have
the Russian Government make an ex-
ception of , these Roumanian soldiers,
on the plea that they have stated their
readiness to enter the Russian Army.
