A\en it, as we are informed, the Commission of Reparations means to re 
nounce the right of intervention which it has under the above article still Rou- 
raania cannot accept to give up a right which is of the greatest importance to 
her, as it is a question of economically drawing the freed territories closer to 
their former oecupants. Such a renouncement would have as a consequence 
the dependence of all the railroads in the freed territories of the companies of 
theii former enemies, w Inch would constitute a flagrant contradiction to the 
object of the treaties. 
II. Hungary 
I ill the present moment Hungary has not complied with the terms of ar 
ticle 194, in producing the list of property, rights and interests which the Hun 
garian dependents had in the undertakings of public utility, in Ardeal and Bu- 
kovina. Roumania insisted and still insists, on the showing of this list, in order 
to be enable to exercise her right. The Commission of Reparations has taken no 
decision in the matter, but Roumania, seeing the interest she has in nationaliz 
ing the undertakings of public utility in Ardeal, can not give up her right, and 
insists on the Commission of reparations, demanding and obtaining from Hun- 
gai \ the list of properties, rights and interests, which the Hungarian depen 
dents have, in the undertakings of public utility in Ardeal and Bukovina. 
If the former hostile States, do not present this complete list, omitting to 
put down these properties rights and interests of theirs in the freed territories, 
then Roumania, in conformity with the terms of the treaties may take it for gran 
ted, that these former hostile States, have renounced in favor of Roumania, all 
the properties rights and interests, not taken down in the lists they should 
have presented. 
SECTION IV 
Property relonging to institutions and foundations of the treed territories 
EXISTING AT PRESENT IN OTHER TERRITORIES OF THE FORMER 
Austro-Hungarian Monarchy 
Articles 266 and 265 of the Treaty with Austria, and articles 249 and 
258 of the Treaty with Hungary, impose on these States the obligation of re 
mitting all properties rights and interests, belonging to institutions, founda 
tions and collectivities in the freed territories. This formal obligation could 
not be carried out up to now, on account of the resistance of the interested Sta 
tes, practically possessors of this property which is not theirs. The negotiations 
carried on in Bucarest, and the conferences of Vienna and of Rome in 1922 
and 1924 have given no practical result up to now. 
The matter offers great interest for Roumania, as it is a question of pro 
pel t) belonging to Roumanian foundations, and of which Roumanian natio 
nals should profit, or cultural and philanthropical institutions of public interest
