ARREST OF BRITONS
DEMAND FOR EXPLANATION RUMANIAN MINISTER ASKED (Official Wireless) (Received Sept. 30, 3.15 p.m.) RUGBY, Sept. 29 It is announced in London that Viscount Halifax today summoned the Rumanian Charge d’Affaires, M. Radu Florescu, to the Foreign Office and called for an explanation of the facts in connection with the recent arrest of five British subjects. The brutal ill-treatment of five British subjects in Rumania was alleged— namely, Messrs Brasier and Young, a Canadian mining engineer _ named Tracey, his wife and an assistant named Anderson. The British Consul succeeded in seeing the men after obstruction, and found that they had apparently been subjected to severe man-handling. Attempts to see Mrs Tracey and again visit the men failed.
