Reckoning the days of mobilization made by the Roumanian elfort in the war period we find that Roumania had a minimum of 1.000.000.000 days of mobilization. We arrive at this figure counting an effective average of 500.000 men mobilised from Aug. 15 th 1916 to March 31 1921 when the army was i mo bilized (total 1.700 days a year*) The 1 milliard days with which Roumania contributed to the common victory divided over a population of 8 million inhabitants, makes an averagi of an effort of 125 davs of mobilization for each inhabitant, or 1 •000 da\s lm each man fit for the military service, that is three years oI mobilization sot each valid man. That is why the taking up ot all the available labouring men w as a great trial for the national production ot that timee. These 1.000.000.000 days cost the Roumanian State £ 226.914.519-17-9 which comes to 4 , / 2 shilling a day per man, war proper expenses without coun ting the losses suffered by the Roumanian nation from direct consequences of the war, and without adding the lack of production ot the count: \ during that time, which was caused by the mobilization of all its vital foices, and the con ditions in which it went to war. *) Were added. ... . a) The concent -ations days daring the preparation period for the military instruction "f the troops and reserve officers, and for carrying out the fortification works ; b) The days for the miinten'ng of the youths from 17 to 20 years old who were evacuated into Moldavia, after M untenia had fallen into the hands of the enemy ; c) The days of mobilization of the workmen, used for the industry as fur instance the requisition of the population for the needs of the war. The diminution of the effective forces which took place after the forced signature of the Buearest peace, until the mobilization of the Rmmanmn army in November 1918 war over and above compensated, by the ex. cess of the effective forces, mobilized during the first part of our war when we put on a war footing 830.0,00 and of the non combatants during the retreat to Moldavia.
