WASHINGTON. June 29. Diplo mats in the service of the United States, attaches of the state depart ment and senators are discussing the recent hearing by the house commit tee which has been investigating the state department with particular ref erence to the payment of money to Artist Rosenthal, who painted the por trait of former Secretary Day, now associate supreme court justice The question is asked whether It is the proper procedure for congress to Imestigate expenditures made by the state department, which In some instances might lay bare confidential facts which it would not be advisable to have known. Heretofore, matters of this kind have been held confidential, but recently publicity has been given to state matters that should have been held in secrecy, according to some. The sum placed at the disposal ot the state department which does not have to be publicly accounted for Is $50,000 annually, a small figure, it is said, compared with the sums expend ed by other nations for secret govern mental services. This ninety thous and dollars. It is said, would not be a drop In the bucket alongside of the great sum expended by the govern ment of Great Rrjtaln fer confldentlsl information of various kinds.

Turkey used to do it under the renne of Abdul Hamld It is supposed that much less of that sort of thing Is done nowadays In Turkey because the government lias become constitutional, and it Is neither easy nor necessary to.- main tain so nuch secrecy.
