However, only a small part of her rosourcos was exploited. 2. Evo.:1 after the acquisition of Transylvania Bukovina and Bossarabia, about three-fifths of the area was arable la.nd and four-fifths , of tho population were employed in a?:riculturo, forostfoy and fishing. Industry, employing only om-twontieth of the population, was responsible for half of the production expressed in value. itpproxiial.tely two-thirds of all income from exports was derived from industrial products - chiefly oil, of which Roumania was the foremost. European exporter. ,3. At the end of 1938, there wore 3,767 industrial establishments in Roumania. These had an agL;rogato capital of Lei 50,100 million, and employed about 289,000 workers. Production in 1938 was valued at Lei 69,200 million.

In one of tIle Protocols attached to the Treaty of Friondshin,,.Collaboration and Mutual Assistance between Russia and Ro,2-laniri si rd in lioscow on February z!.th L40, it was laid down that in Ca:3Q Roumania were threatened by invasion or. air attack froi.1 the L.Juot all industries considered of imi,Dortance to the war effort would IN-; trans- ferred. to the U.S.S.R. in acoordance with a plan to be drawn up by u mixed commisdon. 0. Accordil-c to a further protocol attached to the same Treaty a mixed Rou.:.unian Soviet Company is to be formed for the exploitat ion of the molybdenum miss in the 13111OR roion of the BANAT. Similar Companies arc to be formed for the exploitation and industrialisation of all mineral deposits in Roumania. The Roumanian '',.pport'' will be constituted by the provision of the mineral deposits .rnd necessary labour, whereas the Russia-as will su-only the equipiznt and specialist technicians. In oxchan.:,e for this the Russians will obtain 80?16 of the total production in either raw !.-ILI.terials or finished products. Tho a.,rooment is biadin, for 2o years. A further article stipulates that similar Companies are to be formed for the exploitation of coal, oil and :_oto.2. deposits. RussiL, s part in those cases will vary loci-by:eon 20`;-, and 70% of the profit, payable in kind. Those examples are quoted to illustrate how completely Roumanian Incliztrial Development has boon made subservient to Soviet requirements. 10.

PETROL:Mil INbUSTRY- nouma lila is the s ixth amons the pe tro bum producin6 countries of ti e world. The main producing fields extend from the Iron Gates of the Danube eastwards. The Campina and floe sti region are the centre and here also are the biggest refineries of which there were 35 in the country. Som have recently been closed down. --Lstiraated known reserves in 1945 were 57 million tons. Peak production appears to have been passed. Output in 1936 was nearly 9.3 million tons but by 1939 it was only 6.24 million tons. "Astra Romans." was the largest single company producing oil. This company was a subsidiary of the Royal Dutch shell iToup Owing t o the deter ior a ti on in equipment Roumanian output fell steadily during and after the wra^ . In 1946 only 4.193 million tons were produced. In March 1947 :3ritish companies reported that their equipment was no longer serviceable for economic operation and only 135,000 metres were drilled in 1946 as compared with an average of 3400000 metros per annui during the War. Only 3 per cent of the output in 1946 was available for sale in the export market. 57 per cent went in reparations to the U.S.S.R. arc'. 40 per cent was reserved fa' home use. The policy apparently was to make the continued operation of the oil companies in which Allied capital was invested, impossible ani in 1947 only 3,929 million tons of oil wore produced. 1)eterioration of refineries, wells and drilling machinery was held to be so groat that the industry was considered beyond. repair. In 'larch 1947 it was calculated that $50 million would be required to modernise the refineries alone. In 'larch 1948, Astra Romans. S.A. declared itself forcibly dissolved. The Roumanian Government has thus been able to squeem) out foreign interests without tile legal obligation to pay for damage wilfully done. ch Roumanian oil producing companies are as follows Company Principal Oil Producing Companies Output (000 tons) 1938 1939 - 1946 1,461 1,363 1,303 ( lioya 1 Dut eh- Lihe 11 Subsidiary) "CONCORDIA" S.A.R. =TRU INDUSTRIA PETROLULUI so* 4 (At. ?
