Rep. Wayne Hays (D-Ohiol said Saturday his Foreign Affairs sub committee will go overseas in its study.

Hays spoke after tht State De partment ran into a round of criticism at hearings Friday on its request for 100 million dollars for more buildings abroad during the next five years. The congressmen didn't like the architecture of some buildings the department has already put up They also questioned whether U.S. officials in them lived too luxur iously and didn't mix enough with the local populace. Loy Henderson, deputy under secretary of state, denied osten tation. "We're not, as so many people think, living in an extrav agant way, the career diplomat said. Henderson said basic State De partment policy is to have U.S. officials in a foreign city spread around town rather than living in an American compound.

"Yet if we even raise the subject it is ridiculed on the floor of Congress," he said. Henderson said career foreign service officers expect some hard ships when they are sent abroad. But short-term personnel, he said, need more inducements before accepting an overseas job. He said they want items like canned food and ready-mix pie crust available for their families.
