BUDAPEST, Hungary, Dec. 26.—
An estimated 20 divisions or 300,000
men began pouring across Hungary
Wednesday to Rumania aa Germany
rushed- to strengthen it* forces there.
Artillery, tanks, bridge - building
equipment and motor transports ac-
companied the men.
At least 100,000 Germans are al-
ready in Rumania and the movement
of the new troops caused much specu-
lation aa to reasons.
Diplomatic sources thought that
perhaps Germany at last was plan-
ning action against Turkey and
Greece through Bulgaria or prepar-
ing for a showdown with Soviet Rus-
sia, or simply strengthening mili-
tary forces in Rumania to assure
civil order, or sparring for position
against Russia. *—
In the last- case the impressive
movement of troops, which win util-
ise 1,160 trains from now until Jan.
31. may he only part of a game of
bluff ------,
The Hungarian railway adminis-
tration has publicly announced that
passenger, train service will be “spe-
cially restricted” during the troop
' movement, with one local train vun-
j ming on esch line daily to handle the
„ . , l mails. JMr, ja Am Hr-iHKta -
