For trying to intervene in behalf of Jews, Col. Alexanderu Dobre, a high Rumanian military official, was arrested this week and sent to a concentration camp, it is reported today from Bucharest by the German news agency Deutsche Nachrichten Bureau.
The German report said that an official announcement in the Bucharest press today stated that the Rumanian colonel will be tried soon “for insulting civil servants.” He is charged with “intimidating” officials of the Commissariat for Jewish Affairs and with allegedly stating that he acted on orders of Marshall Antonescu, the report stated.
