Paris Peace Conf. 181.9202/60: Telegram
General Bandholtz to the Commission to Negotiate Peace
[Received August 31—3:30 p.m.]
35A. At the session of the Mission this date a letter was received from the Roumanian General Rudeanu, in which he advanced the proposition for the Roumanians to hold their present line west of the Danube. As this covers most of Hungary and there was no reason for such action the Mission replied that in their opinion the Roumanians should immediately evacuate all of the country west of the Danube except a bridgehead at Budapest which would be ample to protect them from any possible attacks. Beyond transacting considerable routine business there was nothing else of note that occurred at today’s session.
