At Present Hate of Exchange Americans on Rhine Get Enormous Salaries. Coblenz. ? The pay of a second lieutenant in the American army on the lihine is equivalent at present rate of exchange to that of Marshal Foch. This may explain in part why the American army of 15,000 men costs Germany more than 80,000 French troops in the Mayence zone. It accounts also for the exaggerated state ment from German sources that America's fighting force costs Gc/ I many more than all the allied armies of occupation. Marshal Koch's salary is 33,000 francs. A second lieutenant in the American forces in Germany receives $'2,100 a year, which with extra allotments, brings up to about ?2,300. At the rate of exchange of 14 francs and a half to the dollar, the second lieutenant draws 33,350 francs a year. The buck private receives $3(5 a month; a corporal $51.80; a sergeant $63; and a technical sergeant $74.20. The French poilu at Mavence has to be content with 75 centimes a day; a corporal receives !)0 centimes and sergeant two francs. With the rate of exchange about GO to () "> marks to the dollar, the American soldier in Germany draws a larger salary than many of the high German city officials. The American soldier in the Coblenz area lives better than the average bourgeois family of either Germany or France. At each of the ten huts managed by the Young Men's Christian association in Coblenz, tlie soldier can obtain better and cheaper food than in the average good restaurants of Paris or Coblenz. Here is the menu of the one .Sunday dinne r at the Uahuhof hotel, conducted by the Y. M. C. A., which the soldeir could buy for l>0 marks, or about a half dollar: Cream of pea soup, roast Danish turkey, nut dressing, cranberry sauce, potato cro <iuets, Jersey sweet potatoes, creamed cauliflower, shrimp salad, radishes and olives, pickles, rolls, butter, marshmellow ice cream, cake, coffee, and tea. There has never been a soldier in any army who has had at his dispositon the organization of welfare which the American soldier on the the Rhine enjoys. Officers say the boys here are living the lives of tfttntlemon and are behaving as such. Although prohibition does not exist in Ooblenz the correspondent has vet to sm :i drimb-rm ; * _ .. ...X. .

A large dele- , gation was present, and the wise, con- , structive program prepared by the , presiding elder was executed in the , minutest detail. , The reports from the twenty-one pastorial charges in the district, covering every department of religious activity, showed a marked degree of ' progress, especially to in attendance upon Church and Sunday School.
