By Carroll Kenworthy. UP Staff t'orrespondent Washington, July 17—<UP) —A vast diplomatic building program to c reate an ' Ain ricnn owned headquarters tor every American mission abroad" is planned by Df. Henry W- Temple of Pennsylvania, new chairman of the house foreign relations committee. Millions of dollars would be spent in the proj et and many years would elapse before it is completed even if authorized by congress but this dots not deter Chairman Temple. The program already has I been given a start with an author , iration of $10,000,000 for some 25 missions. He merely intends to give all the others an equal benefit.; In. the project he apparently has the support of other foreign buildings officials for Representative .1. Chnrles Linthicum of Maryland Is sponsoring a 12.500,000 mission in Argentine and Senator Claude A. Swanson of Virginia has been in- ; tluential in promoting a Madison memorial embassy at Lima, Peru. Congressman Temple's plan is to hdve permanent American-owned buildings at every post where there is a diplomatic or consular official' regularly stationed. At present by; far the most offices of this kind h arg merely rented from local for- 1 eign owners. i •American - owned headquarters,; sets every American mission j 1 aUfoad” is his slogan.

It . also maintains 47 consulates gen- • oral; 228 consulates, 16 vice-con-dilates. 58 agencies and three special establishments in which a ministry and consulate general are comI bined. This makes a total of 398 I foreign missions. A number of these, however, are not regarded las necessarily permanent stations. Out of the 398, the government now owns the buildings or has them in process of erection at 291 ; places and is currently negotiating i for land purchases or construction i at 15 other places. This makes a 1 total of 44 missions with immediate prospect of American-owned head(matters. Practically all of these have been acquired since the war : although the United States has had I foreign diplomatic missions since ■ its independence was established. | The present foreign service build-; Ing program was started in 1926 when an act was passed by congress authorizing creation of a foreign service buildings commission. This is composed of three cabinet members, the secretaries of state, treasury and commerce, and the two leading members of both political parties on both congressional foreign relations committees. The last named at present art : Senator Borah and Swanson and Representatives Templej

[and Linthicum. There Is also an I “x cutlve secretary assigned by the! ' department of state who directs! most of the work.
