WASHINGTON, D. C. July 5. -Causticallyn
denouncing America
"dollar diplomacy" and sarcastically
condoling with American girls who
had married foreign titles, Repre
sentative Henry (democrat, Texas),
today spoke in the house in support
of a resolution asking the secretary
of state for information as to what
purchases of embassy sites had been
made under authority of an act
passed last session; urging that tho
government own all embassy build
ings, "so that tho poor may havo
an equal chance with the rich in tho
diplomatic service."
Henry disenssed at length "in
"internationul marriages nnd the glit
ter of modern American diplomacy."
He referred unmistakably to White
law Iteid, John Hays Hammond,
Charlemango Tower and others and
said:
"Wo may congratulate ourselves
that notwithstanding recently two
proud, over-opulent Americans en
tered the ancient capital of England
among a veritable riot of vulgar dis
play nnd extravagance nnd woalth,
jrusbing headlong to tho royalties'
feet, no serious casualties occurred.
"Wo may felicitate ourselves be
cause, in other days, in tho terriblo
struggle for precedence between am
bassadors on groat occasions, armod
conflicts frequently occurcd. At
lenst as Americans, we should bo con
tent that no fatalities occurred
among our representatives in tho wild
scramblo for favors.
"Permit mo to congratulato our
nhbussudors at tho recent historic
occasions in London that no serious
bodily hurm resulted in either of their
ambitions and desires to touoh tho
throno and to lament tho fact that
perhnps somo permnnent wound bus
been left by renson of somo othor
representative ontvieing them in tho
forgcous nnd ovcrlavish displuy of
vulgnr wealth, jewels, peacock fenth
ers and personal raiment, so cssouthl
to such an occasion."
