PERSHING'S MEN TO BE
 PAID IN FRENCH MONEY

WASHINGTON, D. C., July 27.- Soldiers sent to France will not be paid in gold or American currency, the War Department announced tonight but will be given their choice of French money at current exchange rates or a check which can be mailed home or cashed as desired.
 For execution of the plan a large credit has been established abroad, and the American Government will draw upon it as needed. This, it was pointed out, will preclude any possi- bility of the Germans sinking or cap turing money on its way to cash pay warrants.
