MANOILESCU SIS
COURT BY ORATORY
Accused Rumanian Says
King Wanted Carol to Re
turn to Throne.
B„- the Associated T’ppm.
BUCHAREST, Ruma nia, November
I",—Manoilescu, former undersecre
tary of finance, who is on trial for
complicity In a plan for the restoration
*>f state rights to former Crown Prince
«'arc(, continued speaking in his own
defense today. He made an impas
sioned five-hour address, which was
pronounced even by his adversaries as
a jnagniflcent effort of oratory. He
disclosed many heretofore hidden facts
concerning the late King Ferdinand’s
attitude toward Carol, and Carol’s
difficulties with Premier Bratianu.
The text of a letter from King
Ferdinand to the president of the
council a few days before the King's
as disclosed by M. Manoilescu,
begged the president to bring Carol
back to his rightful place on the
throne,
. . Hearers in Tears.
While quoting this letter from j
memory and offering to divulge its j
whereabouts, Manoilescu brought tears '
to the eyes of many by its touching j
appeal, and the court proceedings!
were momentarily halted until com
posure was regained.
Eater in the trial, appeal was made
to M. Popovici, who was finance
ini Ister ir the Stirbey cabinet, to con
fir... that Ford in l J desired Carol’s
return and his succession insured be
fra he died. Popovici said he had
gathered from audiences with King
Ferdinand that the sovereign retarded
renunciation and the regency as only
transitional measures until Carol
she Id mend his ways.
M. Manoilescu startled the court by
declaring of his own knowledge as
former assistant minister of finance
that there was an enormous deficit in
Rumanian finances, amounting to
3,500,000,000 lei (approximtely $21,000,-
000) "of which nobody speaks.’’ He
charged that other great deficits
existed in the public debt and that
proper equilibrium could be restored
only by a strong authoritative ruler.
There were gasps of surprise when
Manoilescu revealed that the govern
ment had tried to win him over to its
side by offering him the post of
minister at Rome or Berlin.
Refuses Honors.
“Thinking I was dissatisfied with
the price,” he went on, "the govern
ment then offered me the ministership
at "bondon. I declined, and out of one
prison. I may enter another. I have
chosen not the way to honors, but the
t.av of honor.”
He charged the government with
being afraid to allow its members to
testify before the court. The appar
ent sincerity and frankness of
Manoilescu in his five-hour effort
greatly impressed his auditors. Half
of them at times were tearful. Pro
testing that he had been an engineer
all his life, and therefore constructive,
he exclaimed: "That I am in revolt
against the government is due to the
tragic state of the countrymen."
Denying that Carol's matrimonial
difficulties were responsible for his re
nunciation. M. Manoilescu declared
there was a document written In
Carol's hand to King Ferdinand, con
taining the real reasons for his re
nunciation and showing that it was
the outcome of political intrigues.
Manoilescu accused Premier Bratianu j
and his administration as being tact
less and blundering in their efforts to £
induce Caro! to return. «

In smiles—all this, of course, if the
men don’t snap out of it."
The war gave woman secretaries
their chance, Mrs. Johnson explained.
"Big executives found out how good
women are at details—the soul of big
business,” she said. "And the men
being naturally lazy shifted more and
more of the burden on to their woman
secretaries. Then a big business man
dies and no one knows .how to con
duct his business except the woman
secMtary, who had been conducting it
for Tilm. So she becomes executive
in title as well as actuality."
There la the economic side, too,
said Nellie M. Severance, of the 800
Line’s transportation service, "women
used to win a living by fair means or
foul—mostly foul. Now \they are
winning It by fair means.”
