15TH INFANTRY HAS A TIME IN CHINA Differenc2 in Rate of Ex change Makes Pay Look Small. Tientsin, China.?Out here ii China, supporting- ^the dignity o America and protecting the lives o Americans, is the 15th infantry IJnitod States army. It's bud enough to bo 10,000 mile away from home, but how woub you like to be heiv in China living like sciubs of the universe, l'ving ii penury and even want ? That is tlv situation of the officers and men o the 15th. The fact is, the 15th is on doubb duty and on half pay. It is up b the people of the United States t< see to it that these men whose dut; has thrown them to the other sid< of the world are given the full pa; of a soldier of the nation. No increased pay; simply full pay. The 15th infantry is stationed a the port of Tientsin as part of ai international guard to ko?p the roa< open between the capital, Pekin, an< the sea. This guard is a result o the Boxer outbreak of 1909 whei the ministers of the nations wen besieged for weeks in Pekin. Dollar Worth fil Cents Chinese money is on a silver basi. of valuation. Before the war, ar American dollar was worth $2 in tin money of China because silver \va: worth 50 cents an ounce or less New silver fluctuates around $1.2? per ounce and is in great demand ir the Far East. Result: An Amerciar dollar is today worth only 61 cents in Chinese money?39 cents off or every dollar. If you are a foreigner in China you must put up a "front" or you and what you stand for are consider ed "no good." Every day the United States is losing influence with the natives because our soldiers cannot afford tc live respectably. Rent is high in Tientsin. Col Morrow, the commanding officer is obliged to rent a smal inconspicuous house because his sal ary will not permit him to rent better. Foreigners of any standing at al live in the foreign settlements, when there is police protection. Prac tically all the officers of the 15tt infantry live outside the settlement! and are therefore considered 'llov down" by the natives. As many a eight unmarried officers are living in one house of five rooms. Mos of the houses occupied by Amo-icu officers have been condemned a ramshackle or unsanitary. Pitying Americans! The result is that the Unitr< States itself has lost prestige in thi part of China. The solder rep re scntatives ot the other nations hav a much better standing than our and it is impossblo to estimate th effect of this p1 rise of the situa.ior Everybody is Pitying our mor Think of that, pitying Americans. Of course, there is an easy \va out if anybody in the United State and particularly Congiess will tak the trouble to get busy. For th United States diplomatic and com mercial service, and for the marin corps serving ashore the law pre vides that our representatives sha receive $2.1*2 of the loccal currenc where they are stationed to $1 c their American pay. This would giv an enlisted man of the 15th infantr $63.60 per month in Chinese cui roncy. Hut he could only buy $30 month worth of goods reckoned i American money. r? ??
