make him a very desirable man to
function a scounselor in Paris, the
state department, under the law as
now existing, would have to cut his
salary $4,000 in order to effect the
transfer. But under the Rogers bill,
both these officers would be graded
as foreign service officers, Class l,
at a salary of $4,000, so that no
change in salary would be involved,
although there would be a change in
status from the immunities of dlplo-
matte officer to the lesser immunitles
of a consular officer, or vice versa,
as the case might be. This change
in status would be in accordance with
international law and usage, which no
law of Congress could affect. The
change in grading would be a do
mestic matter with which foreign
governments would have no concern.
The sase oft he present Chinese
secretary was discussed by the COM
mittee as one somewhat to the point.
This man was born in China Of
American parents, and educated here.
He has been in the service 16 years,

/ Glass a, at 81 500. He is an encyclo-
paedia on Chinese affairs, and knows
the language. A recent law provid-
! ed for this position at $500. He
was assigned, and Notwithstanding
his responsibilities have been ire
mendously increased, and the eff
cheney of the minister to China would
be reduced 30 per cent without him
he receives but $1,000 more in this
position than he did as a consul.
The interchangeability clause in the
Rogers bill appears to have found
much favor with the committee Thu

been discarded by enlightened ma
tions in organizing their foreign serv

has no moral nor legal concern with

or many other items in that remark
able document. Even the most ard
ent internationally will not claim
that we have. If Mr.. Wilson's sig
nature did not place those responsible
tiles upon US it could have had no
broader effect in the matter Of rep
arations or in guaranteeing France
against German invasion.
By his visit, Clemenceau has
strengthened the love and admiration
that Americans have always felt for
the brave and able Frenchman, but
the logic of his arguments base failed
to carry conviction. Much as we
would like to please the gallant old
man, we cannot permit the foreign
policy of this country to be altered.
Much as we love France, not only for
what she did for US in the early days,
but for what she stands for now,
we love America more, and must not
permit our men and u resources to
be dissipated in any such way as that

ception of his duty toward her. If
every American loved America as
purely and d~evotedly as Clemenceau
loves France, most of our domestic
and foreign troubles would disappear,
and the United States would live in
peace and contentment. Only a SEN
timent of admiration can be felt for
the distinguished Frenchman, but for
those pseudo-Americans who indicat-
ed by their applause Of his remarks
that they agreed with what ne said
We have other feelings.
"I ask nothing but friendship and
good heart and good will" said the
former premier. France has those
now, but Mr.. Clemenceau wishes to
see them expressed by an American
guarantee of France against future
German invasions, and American aid
in the collection of the Preparations
bill against Germany. He thinks we
ought to engage to do both, not only
because of former President Wilson's
signature to the Versailles pact, but
becaue he holds that America went
to the aid Of France and should not
have deserted her before the need for
aid had disappeared.
His argument would be sound if his
premises were sound, but they are
not. The United States never went
to the aid of France, despite diligent
efforts by internationalists and 9th.
ers to spread a contrary impression
The United States entered the wa

seas had been invaded by Germany

but we left no undischarged duty t.

which has been holding hearings on

The bill provides that hereafter
officers in the foreign service below

shall consist of nine classes, starting
with Glass 1, at $4,000 per annum,
and ending with Class 9, at $4,000,

ever, may be appointed to the classi-
fled service after having qualified.
While from the standpoint of the
personnel, the regarding increasing
and emoluments Of foreign service
offices, and the provision for retire

Suppose that the state department
should find that our counselor at th

certain qualifications which woul
make his services to the governmen
as consul general to London muc
