the Argetoianu Government had re signed.
It was stated that the Government had resigned after failing to reach agreement with the German trade mission l concerning the Germano-Ru-
manian exchange rate. The Germans demanded that the marks paid for Rumanian goods shipped to Germany should be credited at GO lei instead of the prevailing rate of of 41.5 and also the use of Rumanian tankers for the shipment of oil to the Reich by rail. The German mission left for Berlin last night after Rumania had refused to yield these points, although it had been agreed to grant some lesser trade concessions.
