, WASHINGTON LETTER. c
,coooooooc Coo coCCCcC

Washington, June l4.-(Special Cor
respondence) - There has for some
time been pending before Congress a
bill introduced by Representative John
Jacob Rogers, of Massachusetts,. for
to reorganization and improvement OF
the foreign service of the United
States" That bill is on the calendar
and hearings are expected to take
place with respect to it in the near
future. ID
Briefly the bill provides for the Gre
alton of q single foreign service
through the amalgamation of the
diplomatic and consular services on
an interchangeable basis; representa-
ton allowances for foreign service Of
floors; a corps of foreign service pu-
pills to be educated for the service at
government expense; a retirement
system for foreign service officers,
based on the present civil service re-
tirement act. In view of the American
Consular Bulletin the Rogers bill, if
enacted, will record another milestone
In the upbuilding of our foreign serv-
ice.
While Secretary of State Hughes
has not formally approved this meas
ure, It is quite evident from the ad-
dress which he made recently to the
U. S. Chamber Of commerce at its an
nual convention in Washington that
the Rogert bill is in harmony with Mr..
Hughes ideas. With respect to the in
terchangeability of the services he
said:
There is also the need of greater
flexibility. There has loong been too
great distinction between the politi-
cal interests Of the diplomatic service
and the commercial interests of the
consular service. Both are engaged IN
political work and both are engaged
commercial work. You cannot at this
tlm6 tdke oCOuOuliCo oul VI uipio"N'
If on would protect our interests on
the one side you must support them on
the other, and I believe that the two
branches Of the service-now called
the diplomatic and consular - should
be drawn together and treated as an
interchangeable unit This would per-
NIT the men to be assigned from one
service to the other and thus give a
greater range of opportunity for put
ting men in places where they belong
as their aptitudes and special talents
are revealed"
With respect toa dditional allow
ances for foreign service officers the
secretary declared "the truth is that
our foreign service is undermined
and underpaid" and he called atten-
ton to the fact that the cost of the en-
tire service Of the State Department,
foreign and domestic, amounts to less
than 100000. The receipts of the
department exceeded the expenditures
by $1,270,000 last year. due in part to
