Rumania, like Czechoslovakia before her, looked to the west for help in resisting German pressure while a government spokesman acknowledged Rumania must grant a major share of her trade to the Nazis. The spokesman said that a compromise along such a trade line seemed possible but the government still looked to the west, hoping to be saved trome economic dependence on Germany which would give Rumania somewhat the status of a German colony. Reject Earlier Proposal The biggest news in government circles today was the report that the British Cabinet was considering the plight of the Balkans which lie directly in the path of the German "drang nach to the east. Details of negotiations by which Germany sought to dominate Rumanian import and export markets almost to the exclusion of the rest of the world were unknown to Rumanians at large.

High official quarters emphasized, however, that Rumania had not received any German ultimatum. At the same time it was made known that the Rumanians had rejected the latest German trade proposal. As if to guard her rich oil and wheat fields pending some settlement that would not obliterate her independence, Rumania held at least 500,000 men, called dozen army classes, at her frontiers. to the United Press the government would be able to convert its present "state of readiness" into formal general mobilization at a moment's notice.

D. announced today that an extensive survey will be made by representatives of social and civic organizations district an attempt to proven immediate need of a housing program. "I have met with various civic leaders in the community and we have mapped plans to conduct a survey which will prove conclusively that East New York should obtain an adequate share of the funds appropriated for housing in the Mr. Gutman said.

"It is an urgent necessity to clear out the dilapidated slum areas in East New York and replace them with bright homes; clean, cheerful, wholesome and sufficiently spacious so that people can live as human beings and not exist as cattle packed in freight cars." Gutman termed a recent resolution passed by the 22d A. D. American Labor party, asking him to increase his original demand of 000 to $15,000,0000, as "absurd." He pointed that the housing appropriation for the entire State is $300,000,0000 and it is hardly to be expected that one-twentieth of that sum would be allotted to one Assembly district in the city. He added that the A. L.

Among these was the of a small three-wheeled electric automobile, entirely controlled by hand, for legless people or those who did not have the use of their limbs.

One of his vehicles was purchased and driven by Franklin D. Roosevelt during the early stages of his own affliction from infantile paralysis. Mr. Van Rensselaer also operated a printing business under the name of the Arvan Press at his residence here, doing all the work himself. His illness, however, compelled him to abandon the business and he presented all his printing equipment to the Institute for Crippled and Disabled Men in Manhattan.

For the last four years he had worked as an insurance agent, using his bedroom for an office. Graduated from Harvard in 1911 with the degree of Bachelor of Science, Mr. Van Rensselaer embarked on a mining engineering career with Stone Webster of Boston. While on the border he served with Company of the old Seventh Regiment, N. Y.

He consulted specialists and followed their advice. His electric automobile was the result of six years of work and study. Several of the vehicles were sold, but after a few years their manufacture was abandoned. Surviving are his parents, Maunsell and Mrs. Isabella Mason Van Rensselaer, with whom he lived; a sister, Miss Maud W.
