Remuneration Inadequate.

One very evident reason why ambitious
and intelligent men are not TO be found
In great numbers In consular positions Is
the fact that the scale of remuneration Is
miserably inadequate not only for the serv-
ices rendered. but for the actual living ex-
penses of a family in Europe. The pay of
a majority of the consular positions was
fixed by law many years ago when the
cost of living In Europe was much less
than 1t is now and when money went fur
Their abroad than IT did in the United
States. All this has since changed The
cost Of living in any of the principal Euro
pean cities is now as great. If not greater,
than in cities of the same size In the
United States.
There are other reasons than that OF in
come which deter Americans who are IA
miliar with consular life abroad from seek
ing such places. There is no assurance
that the appointment will last longer than
the four years of a political administration
at home. Under the present system also a
consul is isolated and no provision is made
for travel or for his occasional return to
the United States that he may keep in
touch with American affairs, especially
those of the department in which he

A Suggestion as to Young Men.

At present material is scarce from which
to select consuls who are fit for the highest
positions. but if all those who were worthy
were promoted when opportunity offered
and new appointees to minor positions were
young men of good address and educa-
tion who desired to make 1t a life work, It
would not be ten years before it would be
possible to supply vacancies. even when
they occurred In the most important places,
from the corps itself and confine new adj
missions to the service to young men who
had proved by competitive examinations
their desirability as raw material
The many changes which will probably
take place within the next few months will
be watched with far greater interest, not
only in the United States, but I'm Europe,
than has ever before been shown. Presi-
dent Roosevelt is avowed advocate of
good government and has practiced what
he has preached. The consular corps in
Europe is now regarded In a new light by
the people of that section of the world
because of the close connection between the
consular office in each city and the eX
pansion of the foreign trade of the United
States. An American consul now finds
himself in the calcium light, his observers
and critics being not only his own country
men, but the people of the country in which
he is stationed. Secretary Hay once made
the remark that. judging from his expert
ence, when a United States senator had
constituent whom he wished to reward for
political service, but who was undesirable
as an office holder in his own state, he
dumped this individual upon the consular
corps as the easiest and best way in which
to pay political debts. This has been I'M
doubtedly true In the past and is not
altogether an unknown feature of the pres
ent situation. but, happily. there is evidence
of a vast improvement in the character OF
