  SECTION IV FINANCIAL RESOURCES OF PRISONERS OF WAR
  ARTICLE 58
  Upon the outbreak of hostilities, and pending an arrangement on this matter with the Protecting
  Power, the Detaining Power may determine the maximum amount of money in cash or in any
  similar form that prisoners may have in their possession. Any amount in excess, which was
  properly in their possession and which has been taken or withheld from them, shall be placed to
  their account, together with any monies deposited by them, and shall not be converted into any
  other currency without their consent.
  If prisoners of war are permitted to purchase services or commodities outside the camp against
  payment in cash, such payments shall be made by the prisoner himself or by the camp
  administration who will charge them to the accounts of the prisoners concerned. The Detaining
  Power will establish the necessary rules in this respect.
  ARTICLE 59
  Cash which was taken from prisoners of war, in accordance with Article 18, at the time of their
  capture, and which is in the currency of the Detaining Power, shall be placed to their separate
  accounts, in accordance with the provisions of Article 64 of the present Section.
  The amounts, in the currency of the Detaining Power, due to the conversion of sums in other
  currencies that are taken from the prisoners of war at the same time, shall also be credited to
  their separate accounts.
  ARTICLE 60
  The Detaining Power shall grant all prisoners of war a monthly advance of pay, the amount of
  which shall be fixed by conversion, into the currency of the said Power, of the following amounts:
  Category I: Prisoners ranking below sergeant: eight Swiss francs.
  Category II: Sergeants and other non-commissioned officers, or prisoners of equivalent rank:
  twelve Swiss francs.
  Category III: Warrant officers and commissioned officers below the rank of major or prisoners
  of equivalent rank: fifty Swiss francs.
  Category IV: Majors, lieutenant colonels, colonels or prisoners of equivalent rank: sixty Swiss
  francs.
  Category V: General officers or prisoners of equivalent rank: seventy-five Swiss francs.
  However, the Parties to the conflict concerned may by special agreement modify the amount of
  advances of pay due to prisoners of the preceding categories.
  Furthermore, if the amounts indicated in the first paragraph above would be unduly high
  compared with the pay of the Detaining Power's armed forces or would, for any reason, seriously
  embarrass the Detaining Power, then, pending the conclusion of a special agreement with the
  Power on which the prisoners depend to vary the amounts indicated above, the Detaining Power:
