ARMY ON RHINE COSTS MILLIONS America Faces $300,000, 000 Charge for Troops WASHINGTON, Jan. 17.—Keep- ing the watch on the Rhine has cost the United States approximately $300,000,000, of which but approxi ly $27,000,000 has been collected from the German government, which was supposed to pay all of the bills Exact cost will not be determined, army officers say, until the troops are home and all bilis have been paid in the occupted areas. From December 18, 1918, when the occupation began, until July 31, 1922, when the latest compilation was made, total cost of the American forces in Germany wan $201,386. T1714.
