from 6,500,O0O to $7,10O, 900. Before
this vote was taken, the house defeat
ed an amendment limiting the amount
to 800, 100000
There was a tinge of old-timo pro-
hibition bitterness in the half-hour de-
bate preceding the clearing away of
the question as to how far congress
should go in making the country
''bone dry"
Pleading for larger sum than had
been fixed by the appropriations com

utive and judicial bill, Mr.. Volstead
warned that the country would be
heard from if it was the policy of con-
gress to cut down appropriations and
make the job of enforcement a joke.
Representative Gallivan. democrat,
Massachusetts, proposed to make the
appropriation $1O,OOO.OOO. Taking up
the statement of Mr.. Volstead that
much of the money would come back
in fines, he said:
why this mite? Let's go the lin

by bringing back hundred million"
