HENRY DE:NOUNCES DOLLAR DIPLOMACY Declares Lavish Dispaly by American Diplomats Is
 Dangerous

Washington, July 5.-Lavtsh display by American diplomats in foreign courts was denounced as a dangerous thing and American heiresses who have international alliances were assailed In speech in the House today by Rep resentative Henry of Texas. The speech was on a motion to take from comS mittee resolution on calling upon the Secretary of State for information rel ative to the purchase of embassy sites abroad.
 We may congratulate ourselves, said MT. Henry. that when very re gently two proud and over opulent am bassadors entered into the ancient cap tal of England amid veritable riot of vulgar display and extravaganza of wealth. rushing headlong to the feet of royalty, no serious casualties actu- ally occurred.
 such over-zealous glamor and show indicates a dangerous aspect of the new dollar diplomacy Can any pa triotic American who contemplates the rising tide of lavish and almost ob- scene extrava gance, with it's source springing from the coffers of the over rich, fail to perceive that it is rapidly undermining the foundation of every cottage in the republic.'
