Romania Sells Grain Supplies to the Teutons
Vienna reports Romania has sold 50,100 carloads of cereals to the Central Powers at fair market prices with no inducements. Romania must sell to avoid crop rot as the Dardanelles closure blocks Entente markets. Romania also exports food to Bulgaria and Turkey while seeking better terms with Germany and Austria-Hungary. The government claims neutrality but may join the Central Powers if Entente pressure grows, amid Danube mining and frontier tensions with Austria-Hungary.
